Change of Purpose

We will only use your personal data for the purposes for which we collected it unless we reasonably consider that we need to use it for another reason and that reason is compatible with the original purpose. If you wish to get an explanation as to how the processing for the new purpose is compatible with the original purpose, please contact us using the contact details in the ‘How to contact us’ section of this privacy policy.

We may share your personal data with the parties set out below for the purposes set out in this privacy policy:

• Internally within the TT Group, including to our shareholders;
• Externally to service providers, agents, professional advisers and HM Revenue & Customs.

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 our 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.

We do not transfer your personal data outside the European Economic Area. However, there may be circumstances in which we share your personal data with our shareholders and other members of our group. Those entities might be located outside of the European Economic Area such as in the British Virgin Islands. In those circumstances, we will only make such transfers in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (including by entering into appropriate standard contractual clauses).

We reserve the right to disclose your personal data as required by law, or when we believe that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights and/or comply with a judicial proceeding, court order, request from a regulator, national security, for the purposes of public importance or any other legal or investigatory process involving us. Should we, or any of our affiliated entities, be the subject of a takeover, divestment or acquisition we may disclose your personal data to the new owner of the relevant business and their advisors on the basis of our legitimate interest.

Security of personal data

We have put in place appropriate security measures to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used or accessed in an unauthorised way, altered or disclosed. In addition, we limit access to your personal data to those employees, agents, contractors and other third parties who have a business need to know and who will only process your personal data on our instructions, subject to a duty of confidentiality.

We have put in place 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.

Retention of personal data

We will only retain your personal data for as long as is reasonably necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, regulatory, tax, accounting or reporting requirements. We may retain your personal data for a longer period in the event of a complaint or if we reasonably believe there is a prospect of litigation in respect to our relationship with you.

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, regulatory, tax, accounting or other requirements.

Your legal rights

Data protection laws give you a number of rights as set out below. If you would like to exercise any of your rights, please contact us using the contact details located at the ‘How to contact us’ section below. We will respond to all requests within one month. Occasionally it could 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.

Request access: You have the right to ask for a copy of the personal data we hold about you free of charge (commonly known as a “data subject access request”). We may charge a ‘reasonable fee’, if we think that your request is excessive, to help us cover the costs of locating the information you have requested.

Request correction: You may notify us of changes to the personal data that we hold about you. This enables you to have any incomplete or inaccurate personal data we hold about you corrected or updated.

Request erasure: If you think that we should not be holding or processing your personal data any more, you may request that we delete it. 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 personal data 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: You have the right to object to the 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: You have the right to request the 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 you believe our processing of your personal data is against the law.
• Where you believe that we no longer need to hold your data for the purposes for which it was collected, but you still need your personal data to establish, exercise or defend a legal claim.
• You have objected to our use of your personal data, and we need to verify whether we have overriding legitimate grounds to use it.

Request portability: If you wish to transfer your personal data to you or to a third party (and certain conditions are satisfied), we will provide to you, or a third party you have chosen, your personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format.

Withdraw consent: If you previously gave us your consent (by a clear affirmative action) to allow us to process your personal data, for a particular purpose, but you no longer wish to consent to us doing so, you can contact us to let us know that you withdraw that consent. This will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before you withdraw your consent, however, 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.

We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access your personal information (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.
