Dealing with other people

Our technology

We collect data about you through the use of technology such as cookies. Your cookie preferences

Managing, Disabling and Enabling Cookies

You have the ability to accept or decline cookies from any website by modifying the settings in your browser. If you wish to restrict or block the cookies which are set by our website, you can do this through your browser settings. For information about how to manage and disable cookies you can use the ‘Help’ function within your browser or please visit www.aboutcookies.org or www.allaboutcookies.org. However, please note that by deleting or disabling cookies this could affect the functionality of our website and you may not be able to access certain areas or features of our site.

Confidentiality and disclosure of your data

We will endeavour to treat your personal data as private and confidential. From time to time we may employ agents and subcontractors to process your personal data on our behalf. The same duty of confidentiality and security will apply to them and all processing will be carried out under our instruction and with benefit of signed agreements.

We would like to bring to your attention our obligations to disclose data in the following four exceptional cases permitted by law, and the other situations set out below. These are:

  • Where we are legally compelled to do so
  • Where there is a duty to the public to disclose
  • Where disclosure is required to protect our interest
  • Where disclosure is made at your request or with your consent

Your Rights

Under the terms of data protection legislation, you have the following rights:

  • Right of access
    • You have a right to access the personal information we hold about you and be told why we use it.
  • Right of rectification
    • You can ask us to correct or update your information to ensure it is accurate and complete.
  • Right to erasure and right to restrict processing
    • You can ask us to stop processing and to delete your data in certain circumstances (for example where it is processed with your consent, or it is no longer necessary for us to process it).
  • Right to object
    • You have a right to object to our processing of your information.
  • Rights: profiling and automated decisions
    • You have a right not to be subject to automated decisions which have a legal effect and to be protected by safeguards in respect of any profiling.
  • Right to object to direct marketing

  • You can find out more or exercise the above rights by contacting us. Further information is also available from the ICO’s website ( https://www.ico.org.uk).

Fees, information requirements and time limits

You will not have to pay a fee to access your personal data (or to exercise any of the other rights). However, we may charge a reasonable fee if your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive or excessive. Alternatively, we may refuse to comply with your request in these circumstances.

We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access your personal data (or to exercise any of your other rights). This is a security measure to ensure that personal data is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it. We may also contact you to ask you for further information in relation to your request to speed up our response.

We try to respond to all legitimate requests within one month. Occasionally it may take us longer than a month if your request is particularly complex or you have made a number of requests. In this case, we will notify you and keep you updated.

Information Security

We use industry standard security to encrypt sensitive data in transit to our servers.

It is not anticipated that we will need to transfer your personal data to other companies or service providers located outside of the European Economic Area. The data protection and other laws of these countries may not be as comprehensive as those in the UK or the EEA – but in the event that this is necessary we will take steps to ensure that your data is given an equivalent level of protection as it is in the EEA. Please be aware that communications over the Internet, such as emails, are not secure unless they have been encrypted. Your communications may route through a number of countries before being delivered – this is the nature of the Internet. We cannot accept responsibility for any unauthorised access or loss of personal information that is beyond our control. Additionally, you can protect your system by installing anti-virus and running scans as recommended by the vendor. You should also run any security updates / patches you receive for your system from the supplier. Never respond to unsolicited emails from unfamiliar sources. Such emails may be fraudulent and attempt to get you to provide your personal details or payment information.

General

Questions and comments regarding this Privacy Notice are welcomed, and should be sent to our Group Data Protection Officer at Stockport County 2010 Limited, Hardcastle Street, Edgeley, Stockport SK3 9DD or via email at [email protected]. Alternatively, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner’s Office who may be contacted at Wycliffe House, Water Lane, Wilmslow SK9 5AF or https://ico.org.uk
