Personal information is any information about you. This could include information such as name, date of birth, contact details, bank account details or any information about your circumstances.

Under data protection legislation certain personal information relating to health, racial or ethnic origin, religious beliefs or political opinions and sexual orientation is classified as ‘special’ due to it being sensitive information. We need to have further justifications for collecting, storing and using this type of personal information. Please see section 2.

Where this privacy notice makes reference to personal information it will include personal data, and where relevant, special categories of personal data.

TYPES OF PERSONAL INFORMATION COLLECTED AND WHY

Contract information and other correspondence

Whenever you engage with us (by email, telephone, post, SMS or via our website) we may collect your full name and contact details (such as phone number, email address and postal address) from you.

When you enter into a contract with us (or someone does so on your behalf) there will be personal information about you relating to that contract such as your name, contact details, contract details, and correspondence with us about the contract that will be required to enable us to carry out the contract with you. If the information is not provided, we will be unable to perform our contract with you and may not be able to provide services to you or continue to provide certain services to you. When this is the case this will be explained at the point when information is collected from you

When you are entering into a contract certain information is generally mandatory including the information set out above plus any information required for us to carry out anti money laundering checks.

Call information. We may also collect details of phone numbers used to call our organisation and the date, time and duration of any calls. Please note that if we record your calls to or from us, we will inform you of this.

Marketing

If you subscribe to receive marketing information or news, we may collect your name and contact details (such as your email address, phone number or address) in order to send you information about events, goods or services which you might be interested in. We may collect this directly from you, or through a third party. If a third party collected your name and contact details, they will only pass those details to us for marketing purposes if you have given your permission.

You always have the right to ‘opt out’ of receiving our marketing. You can exercise that right at any time by contacting us at datacontrol@Xshoppingcentre.co.uk . If we send you any marketing emails, we will always provide an unsubscribe option to allow you to opt out of any further marketing emails. We may still need to contact you for administrative or operational purposes, but we will make sure that those communications don’t include direct marketing.

We never share your name or contact details with third parties for marketing purposes unless we have your ‘opt-in’ consent to share your details with a specific third party for them to send you marketing. We do use third party service providers to send out our marketing, but we only allow them to use that information where they have agreed to treat the information confidentially and to keep it secure.

Employee information

If you work for one of our customers, suppliers or business partners, the information we collect about you may include your contact information, details of your employment and our relationship with you.

We use this as necessary for our legitimate interests in managing our relationship with your organisation and to comply with our legal obligations.

Information collected at our premises

Visitor information. We collect information about visitors to our premises. We may record information on your visit, including the date and time, who you are visiting, your name, employer, contact details and vehicle registration number. If you have an accident at our premises, this may include an account of your accident.

CCTV. We operate surveillance and security systems at our premises including, but not limited to, CCTV and electronic access control systems (EACS) which may record you and your activities. We carry out these activities based on our legitimate interest of protecting the property, ensuring the safety of visitors, tenants and clients, investigating and helping others to investigate incidents, and assisting with the prevention and detection of crime and anti-social behaviour. Depending on the seriousness of any incident we may share relevant footage with law enforcement, local authorities, insurers, and concerned parties. These systems may also be used for monitoring workers who are carrying out their duties at the property. This includes our own staff and tenants’ staff.

We display notices to make it clear that we operate surveillance systems.

Job applicants

We collect and hold information provided to us by direct job applications or from recruitment agencies and use this in evaluating candidates, recording our recruitment activities, to enter into an employment contract and to enable us to perform our employment law obligations and rights. For successful applicants, information will be used in accordance with our internal privacy notice which will be provided.

If you are listed as a referee by a job applicant or an emergency contact by someone who works for us, we will hold your name, contact details and details of your relationship with that worker. We will use this only to contact you to carry out our obligations under employment law.

Legal claims

If we consider there to be a risk that we may need to defend or bring legal claims, we may retain your personal information as necessary for our legitimate interests in ensuring that we can properly bring or defend legal claims. We may also need to share this information with our insurers or legal advisers.

Information we receive from third parties

We work with third parties (including, for example, business partners, sub-contractors in technical, payment and delivery services, advertising networks, analytics providers, search information providers and credit reference agencies) who may provide us with information about you, to be used as set out in this notice.

Special categories of data

We may collect and use the following “special categories” of more sensitive personal information in the following situations:

Biometric data (in relation to security access systems) ONLY if applicable at your centre

Information about your health, including medical records (in relation to insurance claims for the legitimate interest of managing the property and as necessary to establish, exercise or defend legal claims).

THE LEGAL BASIS FOR PROCESSING YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

We will only use your personal information when the law allows us to do so. Although in limited circumstances we may use your information because you have specifically consented to it, we generally rely on the following legal bases to use your information:

For employment-related purposes
Where we need information to perform the contract we have entered into with you
Where we need to comply with a legal obligation
Where the processing is necessary for us to carry out activities for which it is in our legitimate interests (or those of a third party) to do so and provided that your interests and fundamental rights do not override those interests.

We will only use your personal information for the purposes for which it was collected unless we reasonably consider that we need to use it for another reason and that reason is compatible with the original purpose. If we need to use your personal information for an unrelated purpose, we will notify you and we will explain the legal basis which allows us to do so.

HOW YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION IS SHARED

As well as any sharing listed above, we may also share your information with third parties, including third-party service providers (for example, those providing legal advice, IT services or payment processing). Third parties are required to respect the security of your personal information and to treat it in accordance with the law. We never sell your data to third parties.

We may share your personal information with third parties if we are under a duty to disclose or share your personal information in order to comply with any legal obligation.

We may also share your information with third parties (such as insurers, tenants, and potential claimants or defendants in legal proceedings) if they have an overriding legitimate interest in that information which will particularly be the case if there is a serious incident involving you.

All our third-party service providers are required to take appropriate security measures to protect your personal information. Where third parties process your personal information on our behalf as ‘data processors’ they must do so only on our instructions and where they have agreed to treat the information confidentially and to keep it secure.

Where there is persistent anti-social behaviour on our premises, we may share relevant and limited data with local organisations, for example schools, colleges and other establishments where significant numbers of visitors to the centre may travel from. Those recipients may then confirm to us if individuals we have notified to them are students at their establishments, or otherwise known to them, so that we can update them if further incidents occur. We do this as necessary for our legitimate interests in managing and reducing anti-social behaviour and assisting with the compliance of safety measures to support the safety of customers and on-site personnel. Data sharing with local third party organisations may include the sharing of images to identify individuals involved in anti-social behaviour. Images will only be shared with a local organisation with whom we have a formal Data Sharing Agreement in place which obliges them to comply with data protection law in relation to any information we share with them. [For example we have a Data Sharing Agreement with X Name of local college or organisation which is a Further Education College / School local to the Centre].

We may also need to share your personal information with a regulator or to otherwise comply with the law.

HOW LONG WE RETAIN YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

The period for which we will keep your personal information will depend on the purposes for which we are using your information. The retention period may be longer than the period for which we are providing services to you where we have statutory or regulatory obligations to retain personal information for a longer period, or where we may need to retain the information in case of a legal claim.

HOW WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION SECURE

Maintaining the security of information is very important and we have measures in place which are designed to prevent unauthorised access to your personal information, we have set out some of these below.

All data is hosted on our own secure servers or those of our third-party providers of specific services. We have systems and protections in place to protect against unauthorised access and other external factors that could cause damage to your personal data. There are strict access requirements in place and access is restricted to those personnel on a need to know basis. Training is provided to our employees and workers who need access to personal information.

Hard copy documentation is stored in locked cabinets.

YOUR RIGHTS IN RELATION TO YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

You have a number of rights in relation to your personal information. The key rights are set out below:

Be informed about how we use your personal information.

Obtain access to your personal information that we hold.

Request that your personal information is corrected if you believe it is incorrect, incomplete or inaccurate.

Request that we erase your personal information where there is no good reason for us continuing to process it (for instance, we may need to continue using your personal data to comply with our legal obligations).

Object to processing of your personal information 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 us using your information on this basis and we do not have a compelling legitimate basis for doing so which overrides your rights, interests and freedoms (for instance, we may need it to defend a legal claim).

Request the restriction of processing of your personal information. This enables you to ask us to suspend the processing of personal information about you, for example if you want us to establish its accuracy or the reason for processing it.

In the event that you notify us that you withdraw consent to the collection, processing and transfer of your personal information for a specific purpose (if we are relying on your consent rather than one of the other bases set out in section 3). We will no longer process your information for the purpose(s) you originally agreed to once we have received your notification unless we have another legitimate interest in doing so. If you think that we are using your information in a way which breaches data protection law, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner’s Office ‘ICO’ (see section 8).

If you want to review, verify, correct or request erasure of your personal information, object to the processing of your personal information, withdraw your consent to the processing of your personal information or request that we transfer a copy of your personal information to another party, please contact us at datacontrol@Xshoppingcentre.co.uk .
