PK Networks Ltd

Privacy Policy March 2018

This Privacy Policy has been compiled to enable PK Networks Ltd to comply with the General Data Protection Regulations [GDPR] 2018. The purpose of this policy is to inform the individual the means of collection of their personal data; the means of processing that data; our obligations and the rights of the data subject [the individual] under the GDPR.

Within our firm are two nominated individuals responsible for data under the GDPR. The roles undertaken are twofold, namely; The Data Controller and the Data Processor.

A Controller determines the purposes and means of processing personal data and a Processor is responsible for processing personal data on behalf of a controller.

As of 25th May 2018 the relevant persons within our organisation are:

                Data controller: Peter Killick, This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. and

                Data Processor: Peter Killick, This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.

To control and process data requires one of six recognised legal bases under GDPR to do so. The six bases are as follows:

  1. Consent:

Consent must be freely given, specific, informed and unambiguous. There must be a positive opt-in – consent cannot be inferred from silence, pre-ticked boxes or inactivity. It must also be separate from other terms and conditions, and simple ways for the withdrawal of consent will be required.

  1. Contract:

Processing is necessary for a contract with an individual, or because that individual has asked that specific steps be taken before entering into a contract.

  1. Legal obligation:

Processing is necessary to comply with the law (not including contractual obligations).

  1. Vital interests:

Processing is necessary to protect an individual’s life.

  1. Public task:

Processing is necessary for the performance of a task in the public interest or for official functions, and the task or function has a clear basis in law.

  1. Legitimate interests:

Processing is necessary for our legitimate interests or the legitimate interests of a third party unless there is a good reason to protect the individual’s personal data which overrides those legitimate interests.

In order to rely on a ‘legitimate interest’ basis we undertake a three-part test which must be satisfied:

  1. A legitimate interest has been identified;
  2. It can be shown that processing is necessary to achieve it; and
  3. Such processing has been balanced against the individual’s [data subject’s] interests, rights and freedoms.

Furthermore under the GDPR the Data Subject [individual] has a number of rights [seven] regarding the collection and processing of their data. For the purposes of the GDPR Data is identified under two categories:

Personal Data: Any ‘personal data’ relating to an identifiable person held automatically or manually.

Sensitive Personal Data: Including genetic & biometric where processed to uniquely identify an individual.

The seven rights of the Data subject are:

  1. Right to be informed;

The right to be informed encompasses the obligation to provide “fair processing information”. It emphasises the need for transparency in the use of personal data.

  1. Right of access;Such a Data Access Request will be provided free of charge within one month, with the following exceptions/provisos:
  2. Data Subjects have the right to access their personal data and supplementary information. The right of access allows individuals to be aware of and verify the lawfulness of the processing.
  1. Such a request is manifestly unfounded or excessive;
  2. Such a request is repetitive;
  3. Such a request requires copies of previously provided information.

In the event of charges being raised the firm will notify in advance such costs which in any event will be based on the administrative cost of providing the requested information.

In the event of manifestly unfair or excessive requests we may refuse to respond to the request and any such refusal will be notified to the requester [data subject] with a reason for the refusal and, in addition, information as to the data subject’s rights to complain to the supervisory body or judicial authority within one month of such a request being received.

  1. Right to rectification; 
  2. The GDPR gives Data Subjects the right to have personal data rectified. Personal data can be rectified if it is inaccurate or incomplete.
  3. Right to erasure; 
  4. This right is to enables a Data Subject to request the deletion or removal of personal data where there is no compelling reason for its continued processing.
  5. Right to restrict processing;Information can be retained just enough for the individual to ensure that the restriction is respected in future.
  6.  
  7. Individuals have a right to ‘block’ or suppress processing of personal data. When processing is restricted, storage of the personal data is permitted, but not to further process it.
  8. Right to data portability;
  9. The right to data portability allows individuals to obtain and reuse their personal data for their own purposes across different services. It allows them to move copy or transfer personal data easily from one IT environment to another in a safe and secure way, without hindrance to usability.
  1. Right to object; 
  2. The right to object to processing based on legitimate interests or the performance of a task in the public interest/exercise of official authority (including profiling); direct marketing (including profiling); and processing for purposes of scientific/historical research and statistics. As well as this notice to the Right to Object in this policy, we will, in all initial communications with a data subject, inform them of this right separately from any other information.

In addition a Data Subject has the right to make a complaint to the Information Commissioner’s Office [ICO] on-line, by phone or in writing at the following:

                https://ico.org.uk/concerns/

                T: 0303 123 1113;
