We may also use reputable business-data providers and contracted lead-generation or marketing providers to help identify businesses and relevant decision-makers.

We use this information only where we believe the person or organisation may reasonably have an interest in services provided by FlowX Facilities.

4. How and why we use personal information

We may use personal information to:

5. Our lawful bases

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

Depending on the circumstances, we may rely on:

Legitimate interests

We may process personal information where it is necessary for our legitimate business interests and those interests are not overridden by your rights and interests.

These interests include:

Where we rely on legitimate interests for direct marketing, we consider whether our use of the information is necessary, proportionate and within the reasonable expectations of the person being contacted.

Contract or steps before a contract

Where applicable, we may process information where this is necessary to enter into or perform a contract or to take steps requested before a contract is entered into.

Legal obligation

We may process and retain information where necessary to meet legal, tax, accounting or regulatory requirements.

Consent

Where the law requires consent for a particular type of communication or processing, we will obtain consent before carrying it out.

You may withdraw consent at any time where our processing is based on consent.

6. Business-to-business marketing

We may contact relevant people at businesses and other organisations about FlowX Facilities' commercial cleaning and facilities-support services.

We conduct electronic marketing in accordance with applicable UK data protection and electronic marketing rules, including the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations ("PECR").

The rules may differ depending on the type of organisation being contacted. For example, different rules can apply to limited companies and other corporate bodies compared with sole traders and certain partnerships.

Where consent is required by law, we will not send electronic marketing unless the relevant requirements have been met.

Every recipient has the right to ask us to stop using their personal information for direct marketing.

Your right to object to direct marketing

You have the right to object at any time to your personal information being used for direct marketing.

If you ask us to stop, we will stop using your information for this purpose.

We may retain limited information on a suppression or "do not contact" list so that we can make sure you are not accidentally contacted again.

To opt out, reply to the marketing communication or contact:
info@flowxfacilities.co.uk

You do not need to give us a reason.

7. Who we share personal information with

We do not sell personal information.

Where necessary for our business, we may share or make information available to trusted service providers including:

Service providers acting on our behalf are expected to use personal information only for the purposes for which they have been engaged and to protect it appropriately.

8. International transfers

Some of the service providers we use may be located outside the United Kingdom or may access personal information from outside the UK.

This may include contracted providers supporting our business-to-business marketing and lead-generation activity.

Where a transfer of personal information outside the UK is subject to UK international-transfer rules, we will ensure that an appropriate legal mechanism and safeguards are in place as required by UK data protection law.

Where appropriate, these safeguards may include an International Data Transfer Agreement, the UK Addendum to approved standard contractual clauses, or another lawful transfer mechanism, together with any required assessment and additional protection measures.

You may contact us at info@flowxfacilities.co.uk if you would like more information about safeguards applying to a particular transfer.

9. How long we keep information

We do not keep personal information for longer than reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected.

As a general guide:

Enquiries and quotations: We will normally retain information relating to enquiries and quotations for up to 24 months from the most recent meaningful contact, unless there is a reason to retain it for longer.

Prospective business contacts: We periodically review prospect information and will normally remove or anonymise information that is no longer relevant to our legitimate business purposes.

Customers: Information relating to customers and completed work may be retained during the business relationship and afterwards where necessary for accounting, tax, legal, insurance or record-keeping purposes.

Relevant accounting and transaction records may need to be retained for at least six years in accordance with applicable record-keeping requirements.

Marketing opt-outs: Limited information may be retained on a suppression list for as long as necessary to ensure that we respect a request not to receive further marketing.

10. How we protect your information

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

Access to personal information is limited to people and service providers who reasonably require it for legitimate business purposes.

No method of storing or transmitting information is completely secure, but we take proportionate measures appropriate to the information we process.

11. Your rights

Depending on the circumstances and the lawful basis we rely upon, you may have the right to:

Some rights are subject to legal exemptions and may not apply in every circumstance.

To exercise any of these rights, contact:
info@flowxfacilities.co.uk

We may need to verify your identity before responding to a request.

12. Automated decision-making

We do not make decisions about individuals based solely on automated processing that produce legal or similarly significant effects.

We may use business information to help identify organisations or business contacts that appear relevant to our services, but final sales and marketing decisions are not made solely by automated systems in a way that has a legal or similarly significant effect on an individual.

13. Cookies and website technology

Our website may use cookies or similar technologies that are strictly necessary for the website to function.

We do not currently intend to use non-essential advertising or analytics cookies without providing appropriate information and, where required, obtaining consent.

If we introduce analytics, advertising or other non-essential tracking technologies, we will update our cookie information and website consent controls as necessary.

14. Links to other websites

Our website may contain links to websites operated by other organisations.

We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of external websites, and you should review their privacy policies separately.
