Our lawful basis for processing your personal data
Under Article 6 of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) we are required to tell you about the legal basis under which we collect and process your data.
We will only collect and process your personal data in accordance with one of the below lawful bases:
- Performance of a contract: This is where the processing is necessary for a contract we have with you, or you have asked us to take specific steps before entering into a contract, such as providing you with a quote. This lawful basis covers the following purposes:
- Our legitimate interests: This is where we collect and process data in accordance with our “legitimate interests”. Our legitimate interests include:
- Consent: You may be given the option to explicitly consent to share your data with selected third parties for marketing purposes or to sign up for related products and services. This will be via a separate notice via the website or app. We will never assume that we have your consent unless you have explicitly opted in, and you can withdraw your consent at any time by contacting us.
- Compliance with our legal obligations: We may be required to process or share your personal data in compliance with a legal obligation, such as in response to a request by law enforcement or when investigating a civil claim.
Data storage and international transfers
We take the security of your data very seriously, and all of your personal data will be kept according to strict safeguards and in compliance with the GDPR. Your data will be stored on cloud servers within the EEA and we will only store your data outside the EEA in the event that the jurisdiction in question has been assessed as compliant with the GDPR.
Automated decision making
When you enter in your personal and inventory details to obtain an initial quote using the buzzmove or gobuzzsurvey service, our technology uses this to automatically match you with suitable removal companies in your area and provide you with indicative pricing. This does not affect your legal rights.
When you provide us with your personal and inventory details to obtain a quotation for home contents insurance, our technology will use this information to provide you with an automated quote. This does not affect your legal rights.
Your rights
You have the right to be informed over what personal data we hold and how we are using it. This information is contained within this privacy notice.
If you have consented to particular uses of your personal data, you have the right to withdraw this consent at any time.
You have the right to “portability” of your personal data that we have collected with your consent or in performance of a contract. This means that you can request copies of all the personal data we hold for this purpose in a structured, commonly used, and machine readable form, and we will supply this to you free of charge on request. We will respond to these requests within one month, unless the request is particularly complex, in which case we will inform you of how long it will take as soon as possible.
Where we are using your personal data in accordance with our legitimate interests, you can object to further use of your data. This objection should be based on grounds relating to your particular situation. If you object, we will stop using your personal data in this way immediately, unless there are compelling legitimate grounds for processing your personal data which override your interests, rights and freedoms (such as requests by law enforcement) or we need to process your data for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims. You may always object to further use of your data for direct marketing purposes by clicking the “unsubscribe” button within marketing emails.
You have the right to request a copy of the personal data we hold under the GDPR by making a “subject access request” to us in writing. We will comply with all valid subject access requests within 30 days, unless the request is particularly complex; in this case we will contact you within 30 days with further information. You will not be charged for making a subject access request unless we reasonably deem this to be a manifestly unfounded or excessive request, in which instance you will be charged a reasonable fee based on the administrative costs of providing the information.
If some of the personal data we hold is inaccurate or incomplete, you can request that we rectify our records by writing to us. We will comply with all requests within 30 days unless the request is particularly complex; in this case we will contact you within 30 days with further information.
You have the right to restrict the processing of your personal data in certain circumstances, such as when you object to us using your data in accordance with our legitimate interests or when you contest the accuracy of the data we hold on you.
You have the right to request erasure of the personal data we hold by contacting us. Please note that it is not always possible for us to comply with a request for erasure; for example, if we have collected data from you in performance of a contract, we cannot normally comply with a request for erasure unless we no longer have an active contract with you and the data is more than six years old.
You can exercise any of your rights by contacting us via the details at the bottom of this page.
How long we will keep your data for
We will only keep your personal data for as long as is necessary. This means that we will retain your personal data for as long as we have an active contract or business relationship with you, and after this, we will only keep your data for as long as is necessary for the purposes which it is stored.
What happens if you don’t provide us with the information we need
As outlined above, some of the personal data you provide to us will be used in order to enter into a contract with you and to comply with our legal obligations.
Should you not provide us with the data we require to offer our service or request that we erase the personal data we hold, it is likely that we will not be able to deliver our services to you.
