Data & Privacy

J S Lily Ltd values your privacy and always aims to demonstrate transparency and fairness in the collection and use of client/personal data. This policy is in compliance with the GDPR effective from 25th May 2018.

WHAT IS GDPR?

The GDPR was adopted by the EU Parliament to:

Create consistency within all the member states of the EU as to the rules regarding data protection, implementation of the law, and how the rules are enforced.

Modernise the principles laid out in the 1995 Data Protection Directive (Directive 95/46/EC), which was written before the advent of social media, ‘smart’ mobile devices that now can access things like cameras and geo-location information, and the ubiquity of online services and communications.

Reinforce the rights of individuals to control and protect their personal data.

Strengthen the EU internal market, ensuring stronger enforcement of the rules, streamlining international transfers of personal data and setting global data protection standards.

WHO DOES THE GDPR APPLY TO?

The GDPR applies to:

Organisations located within the EU;
Organisations located outside of the EU if they offer goods or services to (even for free), or monitor the behaviour of, EU residents; and
Organisations processing and holding personal data of EU residents, regardless of the Organisation’s location.

WHAT IS PERSONAL DATA UNDER THE GDPR?

The GDPR applies to ‘personal data’ meaning any information relating to an identifiable person (‘data subject’) who can be directly or indirectly identified in particular by reference to an identifier. This definition provides for a wide range of personal identifiers to constitute personal data, including name, identification number, location data or online identifier, reflecting changes in technology and the way organisations collect information about people. The GDPR applies to both automated personal data and to manual filing systems where personal data is accessible according to specific criteria.

DATA CONTROLLER

A Data Controller is an organisation that determines the purposes, conditions, and means of the processing of personal data. J S Lily Ltd is a Data Controller, for the purposes of operating its business. A Data Processor is an organisation that processes personal data on behalf of a Controller. Third party processors with which J S Lily Ltd works includes, but is not limited to, providers of: IT systems and website/email hosting, CRM and accounting systems, file sharing/storage systems, contracted business and maintenance services, HR/payroll, recruitment, transport/courier services, marketing/advertising services/social media and analytics platforms.

HOW WE USE PERSONAL DATA

J S Lily Ltd uses your data for the following legitimate purposes:

To enable our business to respond to your enquiries and contacts about the quotation/provision of services and products as advertised in print or online at www.jslily.com and associated social media accounts. Enquiries and contacts include those received through phone calls, emails and post; or in response to e-newsletters and online advertising including those generated via paid-for adwords.
As part of our website’s functionality we use cookies (which can be opted into when first visiting the site). Cookies are small files which are stored on a user’s computer. They are designed to hold a modest amount of data specific to a particular client and website, and can be accessed either by the web server or the client computer. This allows the server to deliver a page tailored to a particular user, or the page itself can contain some script which is aware of the data in the cookie and so is able to carry information from one visit to the website (or related site) to the next.
To enable provision of contracted services according to your instruction, or the instruction of nominated contacts in your organisation.
To keep in touch with you during the planning and delivery stages of the services you have contracted us to provide.
To instruct third parties, where appropriate, who may be assisting us in the provision of the services you have contracted.
We may contact you by email/letter to follow up about the service(s) you have received or to inform you of our other services that may be relevant to you. If you opt-in to our mailing list(s) you can unsubscribe at any time and we never share your contact details with unauthorised third parties.

HOW LONG DO WE KEEP PERSONAL DATA?

We will keep your personal data on our secure systems for a minimum of three years from the last time you have contracted services from us, unless you request removal according to your rights under the GDPR.

SECURITY OF EVENT DATA

We operate a ‘safe file’ system in our offices and site locations and our staff are fully-trained in data security. This applies to all client files and contacts whether securely stored in physical files or held on desktop/hand-held devices. Non-essential paperwork is routinely shredded and recycled.

PAYMENT/FINANCIAL SECURITY

When making credit card payments to J S Lily Ltd, your details are destroyed after payment has been processed through our payment terminal. If providing us with other financially sensitive company details, for instance for credit references, that data is securely stored according to our ‘safe file’ system.
