Privacy policy
Want to talk to us about privacy and your data?
That’s great, it’s what we do.
iCompli Limited (“we”, “us”, “our”) is the Data Controller for this website and we are notified with the UK Information Commissioner (Z2436147). If you would like to write, or email us regarding your personal data, our contact details are on the company/contact page of this web site or below.
What personal data do we process and why?
Our ‘contact us’ page allows you to provide basis contact information and the nature of your request. We will use the personal data provided to contact you about your enquiry.
Our mailing list, twitter feed (@icompli) and LinkedIn pages help us to share important information with you. If you choose to subscribe to our mailing lists, we will ask for your name and email address so that we can send you information relevant to compliance, your role, and our consultancy and training services.
If you engage with us as a client, we will process your business contact information for the purpose of fulfilling our contractual obligations under any client contract and meeting our legal obligations as a UK established business.
What lawful bases for processing do you use?
Our Contact Form provides a way for you to engage with iCompli on a professional basis. We will use our legitimate interests of business development to process the personal data you provide. We will only use this data to respond to your solicited requests.
Our mailing list invites you to click on the ‘subscribe’ button, indicating your consent for us to use your email address for the purpose described above. If you do not open, or engage with our content, your consent will expire after two years, and we will remove your contact details from our direct marketing database.
Personal data processed for client engagements will be necessary for the fulfilment of contracts, meeting our legal obligations e.g., finance and accounting, and our legitimate interests e.g., delivering service excellence and promoting our business.
Data retention.
Client contact information e.g., name, email address, job title, will be retained for the duration of any client engagement and for a further six (6) years following cessation of engagement.
Contact information that does not lead to a client engagement will be retained for three (3) years.
Mailing list personal data will be retained for as long as there is a ‘positive engagement’ e.g., email open, click-through action, and then a further two (2) years.
Your data rights.
Given the limited nature of the personal data we process, the most important data rights are likely to be ... ;
The right to withdraw consent,
The right to object, and
The right of access.
Consent. You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. Please use the contact information below to request your withdrawal.
In addition to your right to withdraw consent, we will always ensure our email direct marketing has a simple means to unsubscribe, as required by the Privacy and Electronic Communications (EC Directive) Regulations 2003 (“PEC Regs”).
