Privacy Policy

IMPORTANT – PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING CAREFULLY

Protecting your privacy Foodadit Limited (“we”, “us, “our”) are committed to protecting your privacy.  This privacy policy (“Privacy Policy”) sets out the basis on which your personal data will be stored and processed by us.  You should read this Privacy Policy in conjunction with the Foodadit Member Terms and Conditions which are available on this site (the “Site”).

We collect and process information about you that you provide to us.

Our legal status under UK data protection law is therefore that of a data controller and in this capacity we will securely store and process your personal data which you have provided to us. Data controller is a legal term used in the Data Protection Act 1998 (the “Act”) to signify the person who controls what to do with any given personal data.

Please read the following Privacy Policy carefully to understand how we will use and what we will do with your personal data.

Whose personal data do we collect?

We only collect the personal data of those that sign up to our newsletters.

What personal data do we collect?

How is your personal data used?

We will only use your personal data you provide to us to send you newsletters (which you have signed up for).

Security Arrangements for your personal data

We understand that the security of your personal data is important to you.

We have in place appropriate organisational and technical measures to prevent the unauthorised disclosure or loss of your personal data.

With whom is your personal data shared?

We may disclose depersonalised data (such as aggregated statistics) about the users of the Site in order to describe our sales, customers, traffic patterns and other site information to prospective partners, advertisers, investors and other reputable third parties and for other lawful purposes, but these statistics will include no personally identifying information.

We may occasionally be required by law, court order or governmental authority to disclose certain types of personal data.  Examples of the type of situation where this would occur would be in the administration of justice; or where we have to defend ourselves legally.

Access to personal data

Data Protection law gives you various rights including the right to access the personal data that is held about you.

We, as a data controller, are required to provide you with copies of all the personal data we hold about you, on payment of a nominal administration charge of £10.  If you wish to access the personal data held by us, you should therefore contact us using the information provided below.

You can also request at any time that the personal data we hold about you is updated or corrected or, where applicable, you will be able to amend your profile on the Site.
