4. LEGAL BASIS FOR PROCESSING YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

We will only process your personal information where we have a legal basis to do so. The legal basis will depend on the purposes for which we have collected and use your personal information. In almost every case the legal basis will be one of the following:

consent: for example, where you have provided your consent to receive certain marketing from us. You can withdraw your consent at any time by emailing info@radar-communications.co.uk

the legitimate business interests of Radar Communications: Where it is necessary for us to understand our customers, promote our services and operate effectively as a Marketing & PR, publishing and events company, provided in each case that this is done in a legitimate way which does not unduly affect your privacy and other rights.

for example we will rely on this legal basis when we conduct analysis of our recruitment campaigns to improve their efficacy.

performance or negotiation of a contract with you: For example, where you have applied for a job opportunity at Radar Communications and we wish to invite you to an interview.

compliance with law: Where we are subject to a legal obligation and need to use your personal information in order to comply with that obligation.

5. WHERE WE STORE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

We will take steps which are reasonably necessary to ensure that adequate safeguards are in place to protect your personal information and to make sure it is treated securely and in accordance with this Privacy Notice.

6. HOW WE KEEP YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

We take steps to ensure that the personal information that you provide is retained for only as long as it is necessary for the purpose for which it was collected. After this period it will be deleted or in some cases anonymised.

Where we have collected the personal information based on your consent and we have no other lawful basis to continue with that processing, if you subsequently withdraw your consent then we will flag your record as unsubscribe, but keep your record to use for suppression from future direct marketing unless you specifically tell us not to.

7. SECURITY AND PASSWORDS

You must keep your password and any other authentication information for our website confidential. If you know or suspect that anyone other than you knows your password or any other authentication information, you must promptly notify us using the contact details below.
