What personal data we collect about you

We collect:

• Personal data that you provide to us. There are lots of ways in which you may share your personal data with us, for example, you may register on our website, or contact us in connection with services that you would like to receive, or have already received, from us. The personal data that you provide to us may include your name, job title, company name, e-mail address and phone number.
• Personal data about your use of our website. This is technical information and includes details such as your IP address, your login information, browser type and version, time zone setting and browser plug-in types and versions, operating system and platform, as well as details of how you navigated to our website and what pages or services you viewed or searched for, page response times, length of visits to certain pages, page interaction information (such as scrolling, clicks, and mouse-overs), and any phone number used to call our customer service number.
• Personal data provided contractually for use of a product. An account will be created using your name, job title, company name, e-mail address in order for you to access our tools purchased by your company.

What we use your personal data for

We use your personal data in the following ways:

Personal data that you provide to us is used to:

• provide you with the information, products and services that you request from us;
• provide you with marketing information in accordance with your marketing preferences (see How we use your personal data for marketing);
• manage and administer our business;
• review and improve our service; and
• personal data that we receive from third parties is combined with the personal data that you provide to us and used for the purposes described above.

Personal data about your use of our website is used to:

• administer our website and for internal operations including troubleshooting, data analysis, testing, research, statistical and survey purposes;
• to improve our website to ensure that content is presented in the most effective manner for you and for your computer or mobile device;

Cookies

Our website uses cookies to distinguish you from other users of our website. This helps us to provide you with a good experience when you browse our website and allows us to improve our website. For detailed information on the cookies we use and the purposes for which we use them see our Cookie policy.

When we need your consent to use your personal data

Whilst we always want you to be aware of how we are using your personal data, this does not necessarily mean that we are required to ask for your consent before we can use it. In the day to day running of our business we may use your personal data without asking for your consent because:

We are entering into and carrying out our obligations under a contract with you; and

we need to use your personal data for our own legitimate purposes (such as the administration and management of our business or for the improvement of our services or deciding whether to enter into a contract of employment with you) and our doing so will not interfere with your privacy rights.

In exceptional circumstances we may wish to use your personal data for a different purpose which does require your consent. In these circumstances we will contact you to explain how we wish to use your data and to ask for your consent. You are not required to give consent just because we ask for it. If you do give consent you can change your mind and withdraw it later.

Please refer to the section on How we use your personal data for marketing to read about marketing consents.

Personal data you are legally obliged to provide

You are not under a legal obligation to provide us with any of your personal data but please note that if you elect not to provide us with your personal data we may be unable to provide our services to you or to process your application successfully.

Your rights

You have a legal right to know what personal data we hold about you - this is called the right of subject access. You can exercise this right by emailing dps@invision360.com or by sending us a written request at any time. Please mark your correspondence "Subject Access Request" and send it to our Data Protection Specialist (see the section on Data Protection Specialist for contact details).

You also have rights to:

• prevent your personal data being used for marketing purposes (see How we use your personal data for marketing for further details);
• have inaccurate personal data corrected, blocked or erased;
• object to decisions being made about you by automated means or to your personal data being used for profiling purposes;
• object to our using your personal data in ways that are likely to cause you damage or distress;
• in certain circumstances you may have the right to restrict our use of your personal data;
• require that we delete your personal data; and
• require that we provide you, or anyone that you nominate, with a copy of any personal data you have given us in a structured electronic form such as a CSV file.
• You can object to the processing of your data at any time by completing this form.
• You can find full details of your personal data rights on the Information Commissioner’s Office website at ico.org.uk.

Automated decision making and profiling

We do not make use of automated decision making or profiling.

When we will share your personal data with others

We share your data with the following people in the day-to-day running our business:

• any business partners, suppliers and sub-contractors we work with to provide you with goods or services that you have requested from us;
• third party service providers who perform functions on our behalf (including external consultants, business associates and professional advisers such as lawyers, auditors and accountants, technical support functions and IT consultants carrying out testing and development work on our business technology systems);
• third party outsourced IT and document storage providers where we have an appropriate processing agreement (or similar protections) in place;
• analytics and search engine providers that assist us in the improvement and optimisation of our site;

If you have an account with us, we may share the information submitted under your account among all of our services in order to provide you with a seamless experience and to improve the quality of our services. We will not disclose your account information to other non-affiliated persons except in the limited circumstances authorised in this policy, or with your consent.

We may also share your personal information with third parties on a one-off basis, for example, if:

• we sell or buy any business or assets (including our own), in which case we will disclose your personal data to the prospective seller or buyer of such business or assets; or
• we are under a duty to disclose or share your personal data in order to comply with any legal obligation, or in order to enforce or apply our website terms of use or our terms and conditions of supply and other agreements; or to protect the rights, property, or safety of our customers, ourselves or others. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organisations for the purposes of fraud protection and credit risk reduction.

How we keep your personal data safe

We take every care to ensure that your personal data is kept secure. The security measures we take include:

• only storing your personal data on our secure servers and third-party systems that meet our security recommendations;
• ensuring that our staff receive regular data security awareness training;
• keeping paper records to a minimum and ensuring that those we do have are stored in locked filing cabinets on our office premises;
• maintaining up to date firewalls and anti-virus software to minimise the risk of unauthorised access to our systems;
• enforcing a strict policy on the use of mobile devices and out of office working

Created application data (i.e. that generated by our tools from the user’s input) is anonymised and aggregated to allow us to continue providing and improving our services.

Our data whether personal or not is encrypted in transit (browser to our servers) and at rest (in the actual db).

Please remember that you are responsible for keeping your passwords secure. If we have given you (or you have chosen) a password which enables you to access our products, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential. Please do not share your passwords with anyone.

Unfortunately, sending information via the internet is not completely secure. Although we will do our best to protect your personal data, we cannot guarantee the security of personal data sent to our website; you send us personal data at your own risk. Once we have received your personal data, we will use strict procedures and security features (some of which are described above) to try to prevent unauthorised access.

How we use your personal data for marketing

We will add your details to our marketing database if:

• you make an enquiry about our services; or
• you buy our services; or
• you have told a third party that you would like them to pass us your contact details so that we can send you updates about our services; or
• you have registered for information on our website and have indicated during the sign-up process that you are happy to receive marketing communications.

We may send you marketing communications by e-mail.

You can ask us to only send you marketing communications by particular methods (for example, you may be happy to receive e-mails from us but not telephone calls), about specific subjects (for example our EHCP audit tool) or you may ask us not to send you any marketing communications at all.

We may ask you to indicate your marketing preferences when you first register an interest on our website. You can check and update your current marketing preferences by e-mailing us at dps@invision360.com.

We never share your personal data with third parties for marketing purposes.

When we will send your personal data to other countries

Your personal data may be transferred to, and stored at, a destination outside the European Economic Area ("EEA") by us or by our sub-contractors. Where we, or our sub-contractors, use IT systems or software that is provided by non-UK companies, your personal data may be stored on the servers of these non-UK companies outside the EEA. We will take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that your data is treated securely and in accordance with this privacy policy.

How long we keep your personal data

We only keep your personal data for as long as we actually need it. In practice this means that we will keep:

• We will delete your personal data from our systems if we have not had any meaningful contact with you (or, where appropriate, the company you are working for or with) for two years (or for such longer period as we believe in good faith that the law or relevant regulators require us to preserve your data). After this period, it is likely your data will no longer be relevant for the purposes for which it was collected.
• When we refer to "meaningful contact", we mean, for example, communication between us (either verbal or written), or where you are actively engaging with our online services.  We consider it meaningful contact if you communicate with us about our tools, either by verbal or written communication or click through from any of our marketing communications. Your receipt, opening or reading of an email or other digital message from us will not count as meaningful contact – this will only occur in cases where you click-through or reply directly.

Please note that we may anonymise your personal data or use it for statistical purposes. We keep anonymised and statistical data indefinitely, but we take care to ensure that such data can no longer identify or be connected to any individual.

How you can make a complaint

If you are unhappy with the way we have used your personal data, please contact our Data Protection Specialist to discuss this using the contact details set out in the Who we are and how you can contact us section above.

You are also entitled to make a complaint to the Information Commissioner’s Office which you can do by visiting www.ico.org.uk. Whilst you are not required to do so, we encourage you to contact us directly to discuss any concerns that you may have and to allow us an opportunity to address these before you contact the Information Commissioner’s Office.

How we keep this policy up to date

We will review and update this policy from time to time. This may be to reflect a change in the services we offer or to our internal procedures or it may be to reflect a change in the law.

Each time we update our policy we will update the policy version number shown in the footer and at the end of the policy and the date on which that version of the policy came into force.

This is policy version 2 which came into effect on 4 May 2022.
