Privacy Policy - Bespoke Uniform Design London

Field Grey respects your privacy and is committed to protecting your personal data.

Introduction

Our privacy policy tells you how Field Grey Ltd uses your personal data when you visit our website, interact with us, and buy our goods and services. It also tells you about your privacy rights and how we have ensured that our processes comply with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). It is important that you read this privacy policy, together with any other privacy policies we may provide, so that you are fully aware of how and why we are using your data.

This privacy policy was last updated on 21 May 2018. If you have any questions or would like to exercise your privacy rights, please follow the instructions in this privacy policy. See ‘Contact Field Grey’ below.

Our website

Our website at www.field-grey-com sells goods and services which are aimed at private and business customers.

Field Grey is the Data Controller and Data Processor responsible for our interactions with customers and suppliers, this website, and any handling of personal data carried out by or on our behalf.

Personal data which we collect about you

Personal data, or personal information, means any information about an individual from which that person can be identified. It does not include data where the identity has been removed (anonymous data). We may collect a variety of information about our customers and visitors to the Field Grey website. This personal data falls into these categories:

Identity Data includes title, first name, last name, username or similar identifier and an encrypted version of your login/password. If you interact with us through social media, this may include your social media username. Also, where we provide uniform sizing services for clients’ staff, this may include their clothing sizes.
Contact Data includes the billing address, delivery address, email address and telephone numbers.
Financial Data includes payment card details.
Transaction Data includes details about payments to and from you and other details of products and services you have purchased from us.
Profile Data includes your username and password, purchases or orders made by you, preferences, feedback and survey responses, as well as any profile data which we have added (for example, using analytics and profiling).
Technical Data includes internet protocol (IP) address, your login data, browser type and version, time zone setting and location, browser plug-in types and versions, operating system and platform and other technology on the devices you use to access this website.
Usage Data includes information about how you use our website, products and services.
Tracking Data includes information we or others collect about you from cookies and similar tracking technologies, such as web beacons, pixels, and mobile identifiers.
Marketing and Communications Data includes your preferences in receiving direct marketing from our third parties and us and your communication preferences.

We may also collect and use Aggregated Data such as statistical or demographic data for any purpose. Aggregated Data may be derived from your personal data but is not considered personal data in law as this data does not directly or indirectly reveal your identity. For example, we may aggregate your Usage Data to calculate the percentage of users accessing a specific website feature.

We do not collect any Special Categories of Personal Data about you (this includes details about your race or ethnicity, religious or philosophical beliefs, sex life, sexual orientation, political opinions, trade union membership, information about your health and genetic and biometric data). Nor do we collect any information about criminal convictions and offences.

Remember, if you choose not to share personal data with us, or refuse certain contact permissions, we might not be able to provide the products and services you’ve asked for.

Advertising, marketing and communications preferences

We may use your Identity, Contact, Technical, Tracking, Usage and Profile Data to form a picture of which products, services and offers may be relevant for you and tell you about them. This is what we call direct marketing. We may carry out direct marketing by email, phone, text or post. For example, you might receive our email newsletter or promotion by post.

We try hard to make it clear what we are doing and what communications you will be sent, whether it’s you deciding to sign up to the Field Grey newsletter or as part of creating an account or the purchase journey. You have a right at any time to change your mind and opt out. The easiest way to opt out is to use the unsubscribe link at the bottom of the communication. At any time you can contact us to review the data we hold on you.

There are lots of different ways you’ll see promotions for Field Grey, and not all of these are based on using personal data – sometimes we just buy advertising space. If you see Field Grey’s adverts on websites and in social media, these may not be directed specifically at you. But here are some things we may do that may be specifically directed at you:

Emails, for example, the Field Grey newsletter.
Text messages, for example with discount codes.
Promotions by post, such as great money-off offers, or from our trusted retail partners.
Phone calls, to tell you something that might be relevant to you and your business.

We also work with partners to try and promote the reach of our adverts and use analytics and retargeting for this reason. We use Tracking Data to deliver relevant online advertising, including via websites and social media. Tracking Data, and in particular, cookies, help us to deliver website and social advertising that we believe is most relevant to you and potential new customers of Field Grey.

The cookies used for this purpose are often placed on our website by specialist organisations – and this is also why when you’ve been on www.Field-Grey.com, you might see an advert from us. This includes retargeting.

Cookies can also tell us if you have seen a specific advert, and how long it has been since you have seen it. This is helpful because it means we can control the effectiveness of our adverts and control the number of times people might be shown our adverts. Cookies also help us understand if you’ve opened a marketing email because we don’t want to send you things you don’t read.

Almost all the cookies that relate to advertising are part of third-party online advertising networks. We do not control cookies which are set by advertising networks.

Cookies

You can see from Advertising, marketing and your communications preferences above, that cookies are a tool which we (and everyone one else who operates online) uses for advertising. That is just part of why cookies are used.

Cookies help our website work more effectively and provide help in the background to make the process of being a Field Grey customer a lot easier. This includes being able to log in and move from page to page, and things staying in your cart while you look at other pages.

Other cookies collect information about how visitors use Field Grey, for instance, which pages visitors go to most often, and if they get error messages from web pages. These cookies don’t collect information that identifies a visitor. All information these cookies collect is aggregated and used to improve how Field Grey works.

There are also cookies that allow Field Grey to remember choices you make (such as your user name, language or the region you are in) and provide enhanced, more personal features. These cookies can also be used to remember changes you have made to text size, fonts and other parts of web pages that you can customise. They may also be used to provide services you have asked for such as watching a video or commenting on a blog.

Some cookies collect information about your browsing habits to make advertising delivered to you more relevant to you and your interests (see Advertising, marketing and your communications preferences above). They are usually placed by advertising networks with our permission. They remember that you have visited a website and this information is shared with other organisations such as advertisers. Quite often targeting or advertising cookies will be linked to site functionality provided by the other organisation.

When you use our website, your device or browser may be sent cookies from third parties, for example when using embedded content and social network links. It’s important for you to know that we have no access to or control over cookies used by these companies or third-party websites. Please check the third-party websites for more information about their cookies and how to manage them.

You can set your browser to refuse all or some browser cookies or to alert you when websites set or access cookies. If you disable or refuse cookies, please note that some parts of our website may become inaccessible or not function properly.

Disclosures of your personal data

We may share your personal data with the parties set out below for the purposes set out in this Privacy & Data Protection Policy. We may also share your personal data if the law otherwise allows it.

We may share personal data with the following categories third parties:

Suppliers and service providers (such as technology service providers, payment processing and fraud prevention providers, manufacturers and post and courier services).
Auditors and professional advisers like bankers, lawyers, accountants and insurers
Government, regulators and law enforcement.

We also share data with third parties connected to advertising, retargeting and analytics. Please see Cookies above.

We may also share data with third parties to whom we may choose to sell, transfer, or merge parts of our business or our assets. Alternatively, we may seek to acquire other businesses or merge with them. If a change happens to our business, then the new owners may use your personal data in the same way as set out in this privacy policy.

We require all third parties to respect the security of your personal data and to treat it in accordance with the law.

We do not allow our third-party service providers to use your personal data for their own purposes and only permit them to process your personal data for specified purposes and in accordance with our instructions.

Payment information

Field Grey may use third party payment processors for sales of our products and services via the website. All online payments will be conducted in accordance with Payment Card Industry (PCI) data security standards, and your billing information (which is only used by these payment processors to perform fraud protection) is encrypted before being communicated to them. Subject to the below exceptions, your credit card details are communicated directly from your browser to these payment processors – Field Grey never sees your full Permanent Account Number (PAN). This means that the payment form is either off-site or displayed in a frame on the payment page.

International transfers

Whenever we transfer your personal data out of the EEA, we will comply with applicable data protection law. Some of the mechanisms we may choose to use when undertaking an international transfer are:

The transfer of your personal data is to a country that has officially been deemed to provide an adequate level of protection for personal data by the European Commission.
We may use specific contracts approved by the European Commission which give personal data the same protection it has in Europe (called the “EU Model Clauses”).
Where we use providers based in the US, we may transfer data to them if they are part of the Privacy Shield which requires them to provide similar protection to personal data shared between Europe and the US. If the provider is not EU-US Privacy Shield certified, we may use the EU Model Clauses.

Some of our external third-party providers may be based outside the EEA, so their processing of your personal data will involve a transfer of data outside the EEA.

Data security

We have put in place appropriate security measures to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used or accessed in an unauthorised way, altered or disclosed. Also, we limit access to your personal data to those employees, agents, contractors and other third parties who have a business need to know. They will only process your personal data on our instructions, and they are subject to a duty of confidentiality.

We have put in place procedures to deal with any suspected personal data breach and will notify you and any applicable regulator of a breach where we are legally required to do so

Third-party links

Our website may include links to third-party websites, plug-ins and applications. Clicking on those links or enabling those connections may allow third parties to collect or share data about you. We do not control these third-party websites and are not responsible for their privacy statements. When you leave our website, we encourage you to read the privacy policy of every website you visit.

Data retention

We will only keep your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for and including to satisfy any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.

To determine the appropriate retention period for personal data, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure of your personal data, the purposes for which we process your personal data and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements.

By law, we must keep basic information about our customers (including Contact, Identity, Financial and Transaction Data) for six years after they stop being customers for tax purposes. In some circumstances you can ask us to delete your data; see ‘Your legal rights’ below for further information.

In some circumstances, we may anonymise your personal data (so that it can no longer be associated with you) for research or statistical purposes in which case we may use this information indefinitely without further notice to you.

Your legal rights

If the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) applies to you because you are in the European Union, you have rights under data protection laws in relation to your personal data. GDPR includes eight core principle rights:

The right to be informed – that’s an obligation on us to inform you how we use your personal data.
The right of access – that’s a right to make what’s known as a ‘data subject access request’ for a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
The right to rectification – that’s a right to make us correct personal data about you that may be incomplete or inaccurate.
The right to erasure – that’s also known as the ‘right to be forgotten’ where in certain circumstances you can ask us to delete the personal data we have about you (unless there’s an overriding legal reason we need to keep it).
The right to restrict processing – that’s a right for you in certain circumstances to ask us to suspend processing personal data.
The right to data portability – that’s a right for you to ask us for a copy of your personal data in a common format (for example, a .csv file).
The right to object – that’s a right for you to object to us processing your personal data (for example, if you object to us processing your data for direct marketing).
Rights in relation to automated decision making and profiling – that’s a right you have for us to be transparent about any profiling we do, or any automated decision making.

These rights are subject to certain rules around when you can exercise them. You can see a lot more information on them, on the UK Information Commissioner’s Office website.

If you wish to exercise any of the rights set out above, please contact us (see ‘Contact Field Grey’). 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. Alternatively, we may 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. We try to respond to all legitimate requests within one month. Occasionally it may take us longer than a month if your request is particularly complex or you have made a number of requests. In this case, we will notify you and keep you updated.

We have appointed a Data Privacy Manager who is responsible for overseeing questions in relation to this Privacy & Data Protection Policy. If you have any questions about this Privacy & Data Protection Policy, including any requests to exercise your legal rights, please contact the Data Privacy Manager using the details in ‘Contact Field Grey’ below.

You have the right to make a complaint at any time to the Information Commissioner’s Office (“ICO”), the UK supervisory authority for data protection issues (www.ico.org.uk). We would, however, appreciate the chance to deal with your concerns before you approach the ICO so please contact us in the first instance.

Contact Field Grey

If you have any questions about this Privacy & Data Protection Policy, or would like to exercise any of your rights, please email us at info@field-grey.com or write to us with your letter addressed to: Data Privacy Manager, Unit 2 Part Basement Building 3, Canonbury Yard, 202-208 New North Road, London N1 7BJ

Changes to this privacy policy

The General Data Protection Regulation is new, and the ICO is still issuing new bits of guidance about how businesses should follow it. So, you may see little updates to our Privacy & Data Protection Policy over the coming months. Be sure to check in and have read every now and then. Thank you.
