This policy sets out the procedures that are to be followed when dealing with personal data.  The procedures and principles set out herein must be followed at all times by us, our employees, sub-agents, contractors, or other parties working on our behalf to ensure the correct, lawful, and fair handling of all personal data.

3.            Data Protection Principles

3.1         We aim to ensure compliance with the principles of the Regulations and as such all personal data must be:

a)   Processed lawfully, fairly, and in a transparent manner in relation to the data subject;

b)   Collected for specified, explicit, and legitimate purposes and not further processed in a manner that is incompatible with those purposes; further processing for archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes or statistical purposes shall not be considered to be incompatible with the initial purposes;

c)    Adequate, relevant and limited to what is necessary in relation to the purposes for which it is processed;

d)   Accurate and, where necessary, kept up to date; every reasonable step must be taken to ensure that personal data that is inaccurate, having regard to the purposes for which they are processed, is erased or rectified without delay;

e)   Kept in a form which permits identification of data subjects for no longer than is necessary for the purposes for which the personal data is processed; personal data may be stored for longer periods insofar as the personal data will be processed solely for archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes or statistical purposes subject to implementation of the appropriate technical and organisational measures required by the Regulation in order to safeguard the rights and freedoms of the data subject;

f)     Processed in a manner that ensures appropriate security of the personal data, including protection against unauthorised or unlawful processing and against accidental loss, destruction or damage, using appropriate technical or organisational measures.

 

4.            Lawful, Fair, and Transparent Data Processing

b)  It is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party or in order to take steps at the request of the data subject prior to entering into a contract;

c)   It is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which the controller is subject;

d)  It is necessary to protect the vital interests of the data subject or of another natural person;

e)  It is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller;

f)    It is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by the controller or by a third party, except where such interests are overridden by the fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject which require protection of personal data.
