5. Our Lawful Bases for Using Personal Information

Under UK data protection law, we must have a lawful basis for processing personal information.

Depending on the circumstances, we may rely on:

Contract

Where processing is necessary to take steps at your request before entering into a contract or to perform a contract with you.

For example, where you ask us to provide a quotation or carry out work.

Legitimate Interests

Where processing is necessary for our legitimate business interests and those interests are not overridden by your rights.

Our legitimate interests may include:

  • responding to business enquiries;

  • managing customer and supplier relationships;

  • operating and protecting our website;

  • maintaining appropriate business records;

  • improving our services;

  • establishing or defending legal claims.

Legal Obligation

Where we need to process information to comply with a legal or regulatory requirement.

Consent

Where consent is the appropriate lawful basis, for example for certain types of website tracking or direct marketing.

Where we rely on consent, you may withdraw it at any time.

6. Website Enquiry Forms

When you submit a form through https://mdsne.co.uk/, the information you provide is used to respond to your enquiry and, where appropriate, provide quotations or discuss our services.

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

7. Cookies and Website Analytics

Our website may use cookies and similar technologies.

Some cookies are necessary for the website to function correctly. Other technologies, such as analytics or marketing cookies, will only be used where permitted and where any required consent has been obtained.

 

8. Who We May Share Information With

Where necessary, personal information may be shared with organisations including:

  • website hosting and IT service providers;

  • email and communications providers;

  • accountants and professional advisers;

  • insurers;

  • subcontractors and suppliers involved in delivering a project;

  • consultants and other professionals working on a project;

  • regulatory authorities or law enforcement bodies where required by law.

We only share information where there is a legitimate reason to do so and only provide information reasonably required for that purpose.

9. International Data Transfers

Some technology providers used to operate our website, email or other business systems may process information outside the United Kingdom.

Where personal information is transferred internationally, we will take appropriate steps to ensure it is protected in accordance with applicable UK data protection law.

10. How Long We Keep Information

We only keep personal information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected.

As a general approach:

  • unsuccessful or general enquiries will normally be retained for no longer than reasonably necessary to manage and follow up the enquiry;

  • customer, contractual, project and financial records may be retained for up to six years following completion of the relevant relationship or transaction, or longer where required by law, insurance requirements or a legitimate legal reason;

  • website analytics information is retained according to the settings of the relevant analytics service.

Retention periods may vary where there is a legal, regulatory, contractual, insurance or dispute-related reason to keep information for longer.

11. How We Protect Your Information

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

However, no internet-based system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
