3. The Lawful Basis for Processing Your Personal Data

Under Data Protection Legislation, we must have a lawful basis to process your Personal Data. We rely on the following:

  • Contractual Obligation: Processing is necessary for the performance of a contract to which you are a party (e.g., fulfilling your product order or providing a quotation).

  • Legitimate Interest: Processing is necessary for our legitimate interests (or those of a third party) where your interests do not override those interests (e.g., improving our products, network security, or marketing similar products to existing customers).

  • Legal Obligation: Processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation (e.g., tax or accounting requirements).

  • Consent: You have given clear consent for us to process your Personal Data for a specific purpose (e.g., signing up to a newsletter). You may withdraw this consent at any time.

We use your Personal Data for the following purposes:

5. International Data Transfers

As an international business, the Personal Data we collect may be transferred to, and stored at, a destination outside of the UK and the European Economic Area (EEA) to fulfil your order, process payment details, or provide support services.

Whenever we transfer your Personal Data out of the UK/EEA, we implement safeguards to ensure a similar degree of protection:

  • Transferring data to countries deemed to provide an adequate level of protection by the relevant regulatory bodies.

  • Using specific contracts approved for use in the UK/EEA (such as Standard Contractual Clauses) with our external service providers, which mandates the same protection for Personal Data as it has in the UK/EEA.
