have grouped together follows:
• Identity Data includes photographs of you, first name, maiden name, last name,

the contract we have or are trying to enter into with you (for example, to provide you with
goods or services or to employ or engage you). In this case, we may have to cancel a product
or service you have with us or we may not be able to employ or engage you but we will
notify you if this is the case at the time.

Use of Special Categories of Data of employees/contractors
We do not need your consent if we use special categories of your personal information in
accordance with our written policy to carry out our legal obligations or exercise specific
rights in the field of employment law. In limited circumstances, we may approach you for
your written consent to allow us to process certain particularly sensitive data. If we do so,
we will provide you with full details of the information that we would like and the reason we
need it, so that you can carefully consider whether you wish to consent. You should be
aware that it is not a condition of your employment contract with us that you agree to any
request for consent from us.
Less commonly, we may use information relating to criminal convictions where it is
necessary in relation to legal claims, where it is necessary to protect your interests (or
someone else’s interests) and you are not capable of giving your consent, or where you
have already made the information public. We may only use information relating to criminal
convictions where the law allows us to do so. This will usually be where such processing is
necessary to carry out our obligations and provided we do so in line with our privacy policy.
We will only collect information about criminal convictions if it is appropriate given the
nature of the role and where we are legally able to do so.
Marketing
We strive to provide you with choices regarding certain personal data uses, particularly
around marketing and advertising.

We may use your Identity, Contact, Technical, Usage and Profile Data to form a view on
what we think you may want or need, or what may be of interest to you. This is how we
decide which products, services and offers may be relevant for you (we call this marketing).
You will receive marketing communications from us if you have requested information from
us or services from us or if you provided us with your details when you entered a
competition or registered for a promotion and, in each case, you have not opted out of
receiving that marketing.
Third-party marketing
We will get your express opt-in consent before we share your personal data with any
company outside Viva Business & Lifestyle Ltd for marketing purposes.
Opting out
You can ask us or third parties to stop sending you marketing messages at any time by
logging into the website and checking or unchecking relevant boxes to adjust your
marketing preferences or by following the opt-out links on any marketing message sent to
you or by contacting us at any time.
Where you opt out of receiving these marketing messages, this will not apply to personal
data provided to us as a result of a product/service purchase, warranty registration,
product/service experience or other transactions.
Cookies
A cookie is a small file which asks permission to be placed on your computer’s hard drive.
Once you agree, the file is added and the cookie helps analyse web traffic or lets you know
when you visit a particular site. Cookies allow web applications to respond to you as an
individual. The web application can tailor its operations to your needs, likes and dislikes by
gathering and remembering information about your preferences.
We use traffic log cookies to identify which pages are being used and how the user interacts
with said page. This helps us analyse data about web page traffic and improve our website
in order to tailor it to customer needs. We only use this information for statistical analysis
purposes and then the data is removed from the system.
Overall, cookies help us provide you with a better website, by enabling us to monitor which
pages you find useful and which you do not. A cookie in no way gives us access to your
computer or any information about you, other than the data you choose to share with us.
You can choose to accept or decline cookies. Most web browsers automatically accept
cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer.
This may prevent you from taking full advantage of the website.
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.
If we need to use your personal data for an unrelated purpose, we will notify you and we
will explain the legal basis which allows us to do so.
Please note that we may process your personal data without your knowledge or consent, in
compliance with the above rules, where this is required or permitted by law.
5. Disclosures of your personal data
We may have to share your personal data with the parties set out below for the purposes
set out in the table in paragraph 4 above.• Internal Third Parties as set out in the Glossary.
• External Third Parties as set out in the Glossary.
• Third parties to whom we may choose to sell, transfer, or merge parts of our
business or our assets. Alternatively, we may seek to acquire other businesses or
merge with them. If a change happens to our business, then the new owners may
use your personal data in the same way as set out in this privacy policy.
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.
6. International transfers
Many of our external third parties are based outside the UK so their processing of your
personal data will potentially involve a transfer of data outside the UK.
Whenever we transfer your personal data out of the UK, we ensure a similar degree of
protection is afforded to it by ensuring at least one of the following safeguards is
implemented:
• We will only transfer your personal data to countries that have been deemed to
provide an adequate level of protection for personal data.
• Where we use certain service providers, we may use specific contracts approved for
use in the UK which give personal data the same protection it has in the UK.
Please contact us if you want further information on the specific mechanism used by us
when transferring your personal data out of the UK.
We ensure your personal data is protected by requiring all our group companies to follow
the same rules when processing your personal data. These rules are called “binding
corporate rules”.
Data security
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. They will only process your personal
data on our instructions and they are 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.
Data retention
How long will you use my personal data for?
We will only retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes we
collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting
requirements.
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 requirements.
By law we have to keep basic information about our customers (including Contact, Identity,
Financial and Transaction Data) for six years after they cease being customers for tax
purposes.In some circumstances you can ask us to delete your data: see Request erasure below for
further information.
In some circumstances we may anonymise your personal data (so that it can no longer be
associated with you) for research or statistical purposes in which case we may use this
information indefinitely without further notice to you.
Your legal rights
Under certain circumstances, you have rights under data protection laws in relation to your
personal data. Please see below to find out more about these rights.
If you wish to exercise any of the rights set out above, please contact us.
No fee usually required
You will not have to pay a fee to access your personal data (or to exercise any of the other
rights). However, we may charge a reasonable fee if your request is clearly unfounded,
repetitive or excessive. Alternatively, we may refuse to comply with your request in these
circumstances.
What we may need from you
We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and
ensure your right to access your personal data (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.
Time limit to respond
We try to respond to all legitimate requests within one month. Occasionally it may 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.

business to enable us to give you the best service/product and the best and most secure
experience. We make sure we consider and balance any potential impact on you (both
positive and negative) and your rights before we process your personal data for our
legitimate interests. We do not use your personal data for activities where our interests are
overridden by the impact on you (unless we have your consent or are otherwise required or
permitted to by law). You can obtain further information about how we assess our
legitimate interests against any potential impact on you in respect of specific activities by
contacting us

performance of a contract to which you are a party or to take steps at your request before
entering into such a contract.
Comply with a legal or regulatory obligation means processing your personal data where it
is necessary for compliance with a legal or regulatory obligation that we are subject to.
THIRD PARTIES
External Third Parties

services we provide to you under our agreement.
• Service providers based in USA, EU and Canada who provide IT, Accounting software,
data storage, communication mail outs.
• Partners and affiliates.• Professional advisers acting as processors or joint controllers including lawyers,

• HM Revenue & Customs, regulators and other authorities acting as processors or

YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS
You have the right to:
Request access to your personal data (commonly known as a “data subject access request”).
This enables you to receive a copy of the personal data we hold about you and to check that
we are lawfully processing it.
Request correction of the personal data that we hold about you. This enables you to have
any incomplete or inaccurate data we hold about you corrected, though we may need to
verify the accuracy of the new data you provide to us.
Request erasure of your personal data. 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
information 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 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 of your personal data. This enables you to ask us to
suspend the processing of your personal data in the following scenarios: (a) if you want us
to establish the data’s accuracy; (b) where our use of the data is unlawful but you do not
want us to erase it; (c) where you need us to hold the data even if we no longer require it as
you need it to establish, exercise or defend legal claims; or (d) you have objected to our use
of your data but we need to verify whether we have overriding legitimate grounds to use it.
Request the transfer of your personal data to you or to a third party. We will provide to
you, or a third party you have chosen, your personal data in a structured, commonly used,
machine-readable format. Note that this right only applies to automated information which
you initially provided consent for us to use or where we used the information to perform a
contract with you.
Withdraw consent at any time where we are relying on consent to process your personal
data. However, this will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before you
withdraw your consent. 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.
