5. Legal grounds for processing your information

We will rely on the following legal bases under Data Protection Legislation for processing your personal data:

• Performance of, or entry into, a contract;
• Compliance with a legal obligation to which we are subject;
• We have a legitimate interest in doing so as a services provider;
• Where processing of ‘special category data’ is necessary in the context of the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims;
• In certain circumstances, where we have express consent to do so. Where we collect consent, we will explain that it may be withdrawn at any time in accordance with the information we provide at that time.

Where we are relying on your consent to process your special category personal data (including information relating to your health), if you do not provide this consent, we will not be able to provide our case management or treatment services to you.

Unless otherwise agreed, where you are our client, we will process your client’s personal data as a Data Processor in accordance with the terms of the contractual arrangements in place between us until such time as we have accepted an instruction from you, at which point we will become a Data Controller in respect of such personal data (and any other personal data we collect during the course of our provision of case management or treatment services to such individual).

6. Sharing your information

We may share your details with third parties instructed by us in accordance with your instructions to enable us to fulfil our contractual obligations to you and/or your clients in the course of business.

We will only share your personal data in compliance with Data Protection Legislation.

We may disclose your information to third parties when:

• you specifically request this or it is necessary to provide our services to you, for example disclosure to expert medical providers;
• we consider other companies’ products and services in our group of companies may interest you;
• if we are under a duty to disclose or share your personal data in order to comply with any legal or regulatory obligation.
• necessary for us to receive professional advice from our insurers, insurance brokers, auditors, accountants, solicitors and other professional advisers.
• you have consented to us sharing your information with any party who is funding your case management or treatment.

We will not sell your information.

We may also share your personal data, where necessary, with our carefully selected service providers who provide IT and system administration services.

7. Storage and retention of your personal data

We will only retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.

To determine the appropriate retention period for personal data, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure of your personal data, the purposes for which we process your personal data and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements.

We will procure that any third parties we engage to provide services in satisfaction of any contract between us will keep your data and that of your clients stored on their systems only for as long as is necessary to provide the services to you, and to comply with applicable legal requirements.

We will not store your information for longer than is reasonably necessary or required by law, and/or as needed for the duration of our contractual relationship.

Following the completion of any contract between us, we may also need to retain your personal data for legal and regulatory purposes, including

• pursuing any outstanding payments,
• for the establishment, exercise and defence of legal claims, and
• for HMRC audit purposes following payment of an invoice.

8. Sending your information outside of the EEA

If we need to share your personal data with a recipient outside the United Kingdom we will ensure we do so in compliance with Data Protection Legislation and having obtained your consent, where appropriate.

9. Your information rights

Data Protection Legislation gives you the right to access information held about you.

We will aim to respond to any requests relating to your rights without undue delay and in any case within one month of receipt of your request.

We may ask you to confirm your identity so that we can validate a request. If you would like to make a request, please email or write to the DPO using the contact details provided above.

You have the right to:

• Request access to your personal data and check that we are lawfully processing it.
• Request correction of the personal data that we hold about you if you consider that it is inaccurate.
• Request the transfer of your personal data to you or to a third party.
• Request erasure of your personal data. This includes where you have been successful in exercising your right to object to processing (see below). However we may not be able to comply with your request for erasure for specific legal reasons which will be notified to you, if applicable, at the time of your request.
• Request restriction of processing of your personal data. This may be the case if you want us to establish the data’s accuracy or where our use of the personal data is unlawful but you do not want us to erase it.
• Object to processing of your personal data where we are relying on a legitimate interest and there is something about your particular situation which makes you want to object to processing on this ground as you feel it impacts your fundamental rights and freedoms.

Where you exercise your rights to request erasure, or request a restriction in the processing of your personal data or to object to processing of your personal data, we may still need to keep basic contact information about you if you are already or will shortly be an active customer as we will require this for contractual purposes.
