In this case, we may have to cancel a product or service you have with us, but we will notify you if this is the case at the time.

5. Disclosures of your personal data

These providers process personal data on our behalf and are subject to data processing agreements requiring them to protect your data.
Professional advisers - lawyers, accountants, auditors, insurers and other professional advisers who provide services to us.
Regulators and public authorities - the ICO, HMRC, law enforcement agencies and other regulatory bodies where we are required by law to disclose data.
Business transferees - third parties to whom we may sell, transfer or merge parts of our business or assets. Any new owners will use your personal data in the same way as set out in this policy.
We require all third parties to respect the security of your personal data and to treat it in accordance with the law. We do not allow third-party service providers to use your personal data for their own purposes and only permit them to process your personal data for specified purposes and in accordance with our instructions. A list of our approved sub-processors is available in our Sub-Processor Register here.
6. International transfers
In common with other organisations, we use third parties located in other countries to help us run our business. As a result, personal data may be transferred outside the United Kingdom. We have taken steps to ensure all personal data is provided with adequate protection and that all transfers outside the UK are done lawfully, including through the use of UK-approved standard contractual clauses or adequacy decisions where applicable.
7. Data security
We have put in place appropriate technical and organisational security measures to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used or accessed in an unauthorised way, altered or disclosed. We limit access to your personal data to those employees, agents, contractors and other third parties who have a legitimate business need. They will only process your personal data on our instructions and are subject to a duty of confidentiality.
We have procedures to deal with any suspected personal data breach and will notify you and any applicable regulator of a breach where we are legally required to do so.
Where you use the Sprift Mobile App, you are responsible for keeping your device secure and for ensuring that your login credentials are not shared with or accessible to others. If you believe your account has been compromised, please contact us immediately at Customer.Success@Sprift.com.
The transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure. Although we will do our best to protect your personal data, we cannot guarantee the security of data transmitted to our products, services or Mobile App - any transmission is at your own risk.
8. Data retention
We will keep your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting or reporting requirements.
In general, we retain personal data associated with your account for the duration of our relationship with you and for a period of 6 years after the end of that relationship, in line with our contractual obligations and applicable limitation periods. Mobile Device Data and App Analytics data are retained for a shorter period (typically 12 months) unless required for longer for legal or security purposes.
9. Your legal rights
Under UK data protection law you have the following rights in relation to your personal data:
Request access to your personal data (commonly known as a “data subject access request”). This enables you to receive a copy of the personal data we hold about you and to check that we are lawfully processing it.
Request correction of the personal data that we hold about you. This enables you to have any incomplete or inaccurate data we hold about you corrected, though we may need to verify the accuracy of the new data you provide to us.
Request erasure of your personal data. This enables you to ask us to delete or remove personal data where there is no good reason for us continuing to process it. You also have the right to ask us to delete or remove your personal data where you have successfully exercised your right to object to processing (see below), where we may have processed your information unlawfully or where we are required to erase your personal data to comply with local law. Note, however, that we may not always be able to comply with your request of erasure for specific legal reasons which will be notified to you, if applicable, at the time of your request.
Object to processing of your personal data where we are relying on a legitimate interest (or those of a third party) and there is something about your particular situation which makes you want to object to processing on this ground as you feel it impacts on your fundamental rights and freedoms. You also have the right to object where we are processing your personal data for direct marketing purposes. In some cases, we may demonstrate that we have compelling legitimate grounds to process your information which override your rights and freedoms.
Request restriction of processing of your personal data. This enables you to ask us to suspend the processing of your personal data in the following scenarios:
- if you want us to establish the data’s accuracy;
- where our use of the data is unlawful, but you do not want us to erase it;
- where you need us to hold the data even if we no longer require it as you need it to establish, exercise or defend legal claims;
- you have objected to our use of your data, but we need to verify whether we have overriding legitimate grounds to use it.
Request the transfer of your personal data to you or to a third party. We will provide to you, or a third party you have chosen, your personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format. Note that this right only applies to automated information which you initially provided consent for us to use or where we used the information to perform a contract with you.
Withdraw consent at any time where we are relying on consent to process your personal data. However, this will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before you withdraw your consent. If you withdraw your consent, we may not be able to provide certain products or services to you. We will advise you if this is the case at the time you withdraw your consent.
You will not have to pay a fee to exercise any of these rights. However, we may charge a reasonable fee if your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive or excessive, or we may refuse to comply with your request in those circumstances.
We try to respond to all legitimate requests within one month. Occasionally it may take us longer if your request is particularly complex or you have made a number of requests, in which case we will notify you and keep you updated.
To exercise any of your rights, please contact us at Customer.Success@Sprift.com.
