Information about other people

If you provide information to us about any person other than yourself, your employees, counterparties, your advisers or your suppliers, you must ensure that they understand how their information will be used, and that they have given their permission for you to disclose it to us and for you to allow us to use it.

Who will Vardags share personal data with?

To achieve the above stated purposes for which we process your personal data, we may have to share your personal data with certain third parties.

We will make all reasonable efforts to ensure that any third-party we share your personal data with is also compliant with data protection law.

The kinds of third parties we may share your personal data with include:

  • Organisation where it is necessary to provide or receive services.

  • Vardagss professional advisors, insures and insurance providers.
  • Regulatory and law enforcement agencies.

We may share your personal data with third-party organisations who then transfer the data. We will take all reasonable measures to ensure those third parties are also compliant with data protection law

How long will Vardags keep your personal data?

We will keep your personal data only for as long as required to achieve the purposes for which it was collected, in line with this privacy notice.

We will only keep your personal data until:

  • We are no longer required to do so to comply with regulatory requirements or financial obligations
  • We are no longer required to do so by any law we are subject to.
  • All purposes for which the data was originally gathered have become irrelevant or obsolete.
  • It has been requested that we no longer process the data and that it is erased; in some cases, where there is a remaining relevant or legal reason why we are required to keep this data, we may opt to restrict the amount of processing being conducted to what is absolute necessary rather than erase it.

Your rights, Our responsibility

There are several rights immediately granted to you on providing us with your personal information, and some of these are mentioned above. At Vardags, we take your rights seriously and will always conduct ourselves in a way that is considerate of our responsibility to serve your legal rights.

Right of access

This grants you the right to confirm whether or not your personal data is being processed, and to be provided with relevant details of what those processing operations are and what personal data of yours is being processed.

If you would like access to the personal data we have about you, we ask that you contact us using the details below.

Right to rectification

If you notice that the data we have about you is inaccurate or incomplete, you can request we rectify the data.

Right to erasure

Otherwise known as the right to be forgotten, this gives you the right to request your personal data be deleted.

This is not an absolute right; if you were to request that we erase your personal data, we would erase as much of that data as we could, but may need to retain some information if it is necessary.

Where we have received a request for personal data to be erased, if it is necessary for us to retain some of that information we shall ensure that the remaining data is used only when and where it is absolutely necessary.

Right to objection

In certain circumstances, you also have the right to object to the processing of your personal data and to ask us to block, erase and restrict your personal data. If you would like us to stop using your personal data, please contact us using the details below.

Right to complain

We will always try to maintain the highest standards and encourage the confidence our clients have in us as an organisation. To achieve this, we request that any complaints be brought to our attention in the first place so we can properly investigate matters. If you wish to complain about Vardags to a regulatory body, you can do so by contacting your local data protection supervisory authority.

Changes to our privacy notice

We reserve the right to update and change this notice from time to time in order to reflect any changes to the way in which we process your personal data or changing legal requirements. Any changes we may make to our notice in the future will be posted on this page and, where appropriate, notified to you by email. Please check back frequently to see any updates or changes to our notice.
