Data Processing and Protection Policy
Effective Date: November 3, 2024:
At The Humanius Group (THG), we prioritise the lawful and secure handling of personal data in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). This policy outlines how we process, protect, and manage personal data collected from users within the EU.
Lawful Basis for Processing
We only process personal data when we have a legitimate basis for doing so, including consent obtained from the user, contractual necessity, legal obligations, or our legitimate interests that do not override the fundamental rights of the data subject.
Data We Process
The types of personal data we process include information you provide voluntarily, such as your name, contact information, and any communication sent to us. Additionally, we may collect data related to your interaction with our website through automated technologies, such as cookies, which are detailed in our Cookie Policy.
Data Usage and Purpose
The data we collect is used for various legitimate purposes, including improving our services, personalising user experience, responding to user inquiries, and complying with regulatory requirements.
Data Sharing and Third Parties
We may share data with trusted third-party service providers who assist us in operating the website and conducting our business. These parties adhere to stringent data protection protocols to ensure that your data remains secure.
Data Security Measures
We implement robust security practices to safeguard your personal data from unauthorised access, alteration, or disclosure. This includes the use of encryption technologies, secure data storage solutions, and restricted data access protocols.
Data Retention Policy
Personal data is retained only as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected or as required by law. Once this period ends, data is securely erased or anonymised.
Your Rights as a Data Subject
Under GDPR, you have the right to access, correct, or delete your personal data, as well as restrict or object to certain data processing activities. You also have the right to data portability and to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority if you believe your data is being misused.
Contact Information
If you have any questions regarding your data or wish to exercise any of your rights, please contact our Data Protection Officer at THG.
Updates to this Policy
We reserve the right to amend this Data Processing and Protection Policy to ensure ongoing compliance with applicable laws. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated effective date.
