5. Our lawful bases for processing

UK data protection law requires us to have a lawful basis for processing personal information.

Depending on the circumstances, we may rely on:

Contract

Where processing is necessary to provide services you have requested or to take steps at your request before entering into a contract.

Legitimate interests

Where processing is reasonably necessary for the operation of Blue Dawn Commercial, including responding to enquiries, managing client relationships, providing services, maintaining records, improving our services and protecting our website and systems.

We will consider whether our interests are overridden by your rights and interests.

Legal obligation

Where we are required to process or retain information to comply with legal, accounting, taxation or regulatory obligations.

Consent

Where we specifically ask for your consent.

Where processing is based upon consent, you may withdraw your consent at any time.

6. Contact and enquiry forms

This website uses Fluent Forms to provide contact and enquiry forms.

When you submit a form, we may collect information including your name, business name, email address, telephone number and information about your enquiry or project.

The information is used to respond to your enquiry and, where appropriate, discuss or provide our services.

Form submissions may be stored within the website administration system and may also be transmitted to Blue Dawn Commercial by email.

Submitting an enquiry does not automatically subscribe you to marketing communications.

7. Google Analytics and website usage

This website uses Google Analytics to help us understand how visitors use the website. Google Analytics is connected to the WordPress website using Google Site Kit.

Analytics information may include information about pages visited, website interactions, device and browser information and other technical information associated with use of the website.

We use this information to understand website performance and improve the content and usability of the website.

Google may process information collected through Google Analytics in accordance with its own privacy terms.

Where consent is legally required for analytics technologies used on this website, those technologies will be controlled through our cookie and consent arrangements.

8. Google Site Kit

Google Site Kit is used to connect this WordPress website with Google services, including Google Analytics.

Site Kit provides the integration between the website and connected Google services. Individual Google services may separately process information in accordance with their respective terms and privacy policies.

9. Website security

This website uses All In One WP Security to help protect the website against unauthorised access, malicious activity, spam, attempted attacks and other security threats.

Security systems may process technical information such as IP addresses, login activity and information associated with suspicious requests.

Where personal information is processed for these purposes, we rely upon our legitimate interest in maintaining the security and integrity of our website, business systems and information.

10. Cookies and similar technologies

This website uses cookies and may use other technologies that store information on or access information from your device.

These may be used for website functionality, security, remembering preferences and understanding website usage.

Further information is provided in our Cookie Policy.

The rules apply not only to conventional cookies but also technologies such as scripts, tags, tracking pixels, web storage and certain other technologies.

11. Who we share information with

Blue Dawn Commercial does not sell your personal information.

Where reasonably necessary, information may be shared with organisations that help us operate our business or provide services.

These may include:

  • website hosting and technology providers
  • Google, where Google services are used
  • email and Microsoft 365 service providers
  • Fluent Forms and associated website services
  • IT and security providers
  • accountants and other professional advisers
  • suppliers, consultants or contractors involved in providing an agreed service
  • government bodies, regulators or law enforcement agencies where legally required

Where another organisation processes personal information on our behalf, appropriate data protection arrangements will be used where required.

Some third parties may process information as independent data controllers under their own privacy policies.

12. International transfers

Some technology providers used by Blue Dawn Commercial may process or store information outside the United Kingdom.

Where personal information is transferred internationally, we will rely upon appropriate safeguards or another lawful transfer mechanism where required by UK data protection law.

13. How long we keep information

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected.

The appropriate retention period depends upon the type of information and why it is held.

We may retain information for longer where required for legal, tax, accounting, contractual, regulatory or professional purposes or where it is necessary to establish, exercise or defend legal rights.

Information that is no longer required will be deleted, anonymised or otherwise securely disposed of where appropriate.

14. How we protect your information

We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal information against loss, misuse, unauthorised access, alteration or disclosure.

These measures include appropriate website security, access controls and security measures applied to the systems used to operate Blue Dawn Commercial.

No internet based system can, however, be guaranteed to be completely secure.

15. Your rights

Depending upon the circumstances, UK data protection law may give you the right to:

  • request access to personal information held about you
  • ask us to correct inaccurate or incomplete information
  • request deletion of your personal information in certain circumstances
  • request restriction of processing
  • object to certain processing
  • request transfer of your information in certain circumstances
  • withdraw consent where we rely upon consent

These rights are subject to conditions and exemptions contained within data protection law.
