Purpose This document sets out our policy for responding to requests for deletion of data under UK data protection law. This document explains the rights of the data subject in relation to data deletion and the responsibilities of WhizBang! Retail Training in responding with such a request.
Individual Rights An individual has the right to erasure, also known as ‘the right to be forgotten’. The principle underpinning this right is to enable an individual to request the deletion or removal of personal data where there is no compelling reason for its continued processing.
When does the right to erasure apply? As stipulated in UK data protection law, individuals have a right to have personal data erased and to prevent processing in specific circumstances: – Where the personal data is no longer necessary in relation to the purpose for which it was originally collected/processed;
When the individual withdraws consent;
When the individual objects to the processing and there is no other legal ground for the relevant processing activity;
When the personal data was unlawfully processed;
Where the personal data has to be erased in order to comply with a legal obligation.
What information does WhizBang! Retail Training retain? WhizBang! Retail Training stores data about individuals in order for the purposes of sending marketing information about products and services, event reminders and newsletters/sales letters. We store the name, e-mail address, gender, organisation/department (if provided) and other relevant information needed to provide product information, services and marketing material to the individual.
How can data be deleted? Information may be deleted from our CRM or any other secure database that we use upon request to digitalmediamanager@whizbangtraining.com. We undertake to perform the deletion within one month (30 calendar days) and will send you a confirmation once the information has been deleted. Wherever possible, we will aim to complete the request in advance of the deadline.
