2. How do we use your information?
The information we use depends on the level of service that you engage with us on, typical examples would include:
a) General marketing information
We would only use information from our general marketing website (such as name, email address) to notify you of services/information that you have requested to receive from us. To this extent this will be in the form of an opt-in process where you have positively consented to receive information on our services or news updates you have asked for. You can simply opt-out at any time from our marketing communications by using the opt-out options show in the footer of those communications. Our lawful ground for this processing is our legitimate interests as well as consent where that was given.
b) Using our product/services
If you engage with us to use our products/services we will supply your company with an agreement that governs the use of the personal data. Typically this information we collect about you is used to supply both yourself and your company with the results of online driver risk assessments and to recommend and organise training courses as appropriate. The purpose of the collection and processing or your personal information, combined with your driver statistics is to allow your organisation to fulfil its duty-of-care obligations under Health & Safety law (see http://www.hse.gov.uk/roadsafety/employers.htm for more details). Our lawful ground for this processing is the performance of a contract between employers and us. If you are an individual using our services via your employer then you will have a contract with your employer and your employer will have a contract with us to govern the processing of personal data.
3. With whom is the information shared?
We may disclose personal information if required to do so by law or if we believe that such action is necessary to protect and defend the rights, property or personal safety of Driving Monitor or visitors to this site.
General marketing information - data sharing
If you use our marketing website to seek general road safety information or subscribe to our mailing lists we will not share your data with any third party.
Using our products/services - data sharing
We will only share data that is collected in our web systems with the contracted organisation (typically your employer) as we act as Data Processors for Employers who act the as Data Controller. We will not share your information with any other third party unless you expressly give consent to do so.
4. How long will we store your data?
If we provide any paid for services to you (which will be determined in a written contract), we are required under UK tax law to keep your basic personal data (name, address, contact details) for a minimum of 6 years after which time it will be destroyed. Your information we use for marketing purposes will be kept with us until you notify us that you no longer wish to receive this information using our simply opt-out processes.
We will only retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.
When deciding what the correct time is to keep the data for we look at its amount, nature and sensitivity, potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure, the processing purposes, if these can be achieved by other means and legal requirements.
5. Data security
We have put in place security measures to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used, altered, disclosed, or accessed without authorisation. We also allow access to your personal data only to our internal employees who have a business need to know such data to process it, along with your own company if you enter into an agreement to use our services. They will only process your personal data on our instructions and they must keep it confidential.
We have procedures in place to deal with any suspected personal data breach and will notify you and any applicable regulator of a breach if we are legally required to.
6. Your legal rights
Under data protection laws you have rights in relation to your personal data that include the right to request access, correction, erasure, restriction, transfer, to object to processing, to portability of data and (where the lawful ground of processing is consent) to withdraw consent.

https://ico.org.uk/for-organisations/guide-to-the-general-data-protection-regulation-gdpr/individual-rights/
If you wish to exercise any of the rights set out above, please email us at [email protected].
You will not have to pay a fee to access your personal data (or to exercise any of the other rights). However, we may charge a reasonable fee if your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive or excessive or refuse to comply with your request in these circumstances.
We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access your personal data (or to exercise any of your other rights). This is a security measure to ensure that personal data is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it. We may also contact you to ask you for further information in relation to your request to speed up our response.
