To investigate, detect and prevent fraud and comply with our legal obligations

In certain circumstances, we use your personal data only to the extent required in order to enable us to comply with our legal obligations, including for fraud detection, investigation and prevention purposes. This may require us to provide your personal data to law enforcement agencies if they request it.

 

When do we share personal data?

We may disclose your personal data if we are under a duty to disclose or share your personal data in order to comply with any legal obligation, or in order to protect the rights, property, or safety, of our business, our customers or others. This includes, in specific cases, exchanging information with other organisations for the purposes of fraud protection.

We do not share or sell your data with third parties.

Where do we store and process personal data?

Data is processed according to our privacy policy and the applicable law of the country where the data is located i.e. within the United Kingdom. Where there is a need for data outside the UK we take the correct safeguards needed e.g. standard contract clauses.

 

How do we secure personal data?

NVOY Technologies takes data security seriously and uses the appropriate technologies and procedures necessary to protect the personal information that it holds about you.

  • to restrict access to personal information
  • to conduct privacy impact assessments (where necessary) in accordance with the law
  • to train staff on data security

 

How long do we keep your personal data for? 

We retain your personal data for no longer than is necessary for the purposes(s) for which it was provided. What this means in practice will vary between different types of data.

When determining the relevant retention periods, we take into account factors including:

  • legal obligation(s) under applicable law to retain data for a certain period of time;
  • statute of limitations under applicable law;
  • potential or actual disputes; and
  • guidelines issued by relevant data protection authorities.

Where you are a client of NVOY Technologies, personal data will be retained for the duration of the contract and for a further seven years after the contract ends.

Where you have made an enquiry to NVOY Technologies, personal data will be retained for as long as it is necessary to respond to that enquiry and for a further period of two years from the date of the response in order for us to provide you with additional information about our services after which time it is destroyed.  You may withdraw your consent to receiving this additional information at any time during that period.

Therefore, we will securely erase your personal data from our systems when it is no longer needed.  Paper-based information is securely shredded and disposed of, and electronic information is digitally destroyed and a certificate of destruction is obtained (where applicable).
