- How we process personal data
For people who contact us through our Website and Facebook
We use the personal data you have provided to us to respond to your queries when you contact us. Our legal basis for this processing is our legitimate interest in the administration and operation of our firm. If you become a client, your personal date will become part of your file with us. If you do not become a client, we will delete your personal data if requested to do so.
For people who sign up for our auction alerts
We use the contact information you have provided us to send you information on upcoming auctions. Our legal basis for this processing is the consent that you provided when you signed up. We always include an unsubscribe option in our marketing communications, so you can opt out of receiving such communications at any time. We will retain your contact information until you unsubscribe or opt out.
For people whose information we receive while working for a client
If you are an employee, contractor, customer, supplier, or family member of one of our clients, we might receive and process your personal data as part of our engagement with that client. That personal data may include your name, contact information, and other information as deemed necessary to complete our work. We will only process your data in order to provide our auctioneering services to our client. Our legal basis for this processing is our legitimate interest in fulfilling our professional and contractual obligations to our clients. We retain this data for a period of 7 years because we believe we have a legal responsibility to retain it for this period.
- Whom we share data with
We may share your personal data with our service providers, including LSL Auctions, legal advisors, accountants and consultant third party auctioneers. These providers are not permitted to use this data, except on our behalf.
If we share your personal data with advisors or subcontractors they will be subject to rules of confidentiality.
We may also be obliged to provide access to your personal data to regulators, including our professional body.
We will not share your personal data with any other third parties, unless we have a legal or professional duty to do so.
- Transfers of data outside the European Economic Area
We do not transfer data to any service provider located outside the EEA.
In the event we ever do so appropriate safeguards will be put in place for this transfer to ensure we are fully compliant with local legislation and regulations.
