This privacy notice describes how we collect and use personal information about you by the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

It contains essential information on how and why we collect, store, use, and share personal information, your rights to your personal information, and how to contact us and supervisory authorities if you have a complaint.

Nation Security collects, uses, and is responsible for certain personal information about you.

WHAT INFORMATION DO WE COLLECT 

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).

On our websites, we collect and use personal information (including personal contact information, information from your device, or website usage information) to:

  • Respond to queries or requests submitted by you
  • Process orders or applications submitted by you
  • Administer or otherwise carry out our obligations about any agreement you have with us
  • Anticipate and resolve problems with any services supplied to you
  • Improve your experience on our website

 

The personal data we hold about you must be accurate and current. Please keep us informed if your Data changes during your relationship with us.

We use different methods to collect data from and about you including through:

Direct interactions: You may give us some information about you by filling in forms or corresponding with us by post, phone, email, or otherwise. This includes personal data you provide when you:

  • apply for our products or services;
  • create an account on our website;
  • subscribe to our service or publications;
  • request marketing to be sent to you;
  • enter a competition, promotion, or survey; or
  • Could you give us feedback or contact us?

Automated technologies or interactions: As you interact with our website, we will automatically collect Technical Data about your equipment, browsing actions, and patterns. We collect this personal data using cookies, server logs, and other similar technologies. Please see our cookies policy for further details.

Third parties or publicly available sources: We will receive personal data about you from various third parties such as analytics providers or analytics networks.

INFORMATION COLLECTED FROM OTHER SOURCES

We also collect cookies on our site for performance-related tasks. You can read about the cookies we collect here:

We collect information to analyze the performance of our websites and how different parts of our website are used. We use Google Analytics to do this.

Google Analytics stores information about how users get to our sites and from which device types, how content is being used while on the site, and how long users spend.

Google Analytics also provides information on the interests and demographics of our visitors.

The information is collected using a tag placed on our websites and does not relate to any personally identifiable information being compiled.

Nation Security does not control these third-party websites and is not responsible for their privacy statements. When you leave our website, we encourage you to read the privacy policy of every website you visit.

Nation Security has set our analytics not to expire, i.e., the information will be retained to allow us to analyze trends in our website usage over time.

HOW WE USE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

We will only use your data when the law allows us to. Most commonly, we will use your data in the following circumstances:

  • We will share personal information with other Nation Security businesses as appropriate to respond to your queries or requests.
  • Where it is necessary for our legitimate interests (or those of a third party), your interests and fundamental rights do not override those interests.
  • Where we need to comply with a legal obligation.

We will not share your personal information with any other third party. We will only provide your personal information, which we consider necessary for the performance of that reason.

WHETHER WE NEED YOUR CONSENT

We do not need your consent if we use special categories of your personal information by our written policy to carry out our legal obligations. In limited circumstances, we may approach you for your written consent to allow us to process specific sensitive data. If we do so, we will provide you with full details of the information that we would like and the reason we need it so that you can carefully consider whether you wish to consent.

We will inform you and ask for your consent to use cookies on our website.

HOW LONG YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION WILL BE KEPT

We will only retain your personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes we collected it for, including the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.

We will hold personal data for the period required to retain this information by applicable UK tax law (currently six years). In some circumstances, we may anonymize your data so that it can no longer be associated with you. We may use such information without further notice to you.

Nation Security has agreed to retain the information collected in Google Analytics indefinitely to allow us to analyze trends in our website usage over time.  This is not personally identifiable information.

TRANSFER OF YOUR INFORMATION OUT OF THE EEA

We may transfer your personal information to other Nation Security businesses located outside the European Economic Area (EEA) to respond to any queries submitted to us via our website or social channels.

You can see the complete list of the countries where Nation Security operates using the country sites selector in the top navigation of our website.

Whenever we transfer your data out of the EEA, we ensure a similar degree of protection is afforded to it by ensuring at least one of the following safeguards is implemented:

  • We will only transfer your data to countries that have been deemed to provide an adequate level of protection for personal data by the European Commission.
  • Where we use certain service providers, we may use specific contracts approved by the European Commission, which give personal data the same protection it has in Europe.

YOUR RIGHTS

Under the GDPR, you have several necessary rights free of charge. Under certain circumstances, you have the right to:

  • Request access to your personal information and certain other supplementary information that this Privacy Notice is already designed to address.
  • Request correction of the personal information that we hold about you. This enables you to have any incomplete or inaccurate data we hold about you corrected.
  • Request erasure of your personal information. This enables you to ask us to delete or remove personal data where there is no good reason for us to continue to process it. You also have the right to ask us to delete or remove your data where you have exercised your right to object to processing (see below).
  • Object to processing your personal information where we are processing your data for direct marketing purposes.
  • Object to decisions being taken by automated means which produce legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affect you.
  • Object in certain other situations to our continued processing of your personal information.
  • Request the transfer of your personal information to another party.
  • Withdraw consent at any time where we are relying on consent to process your data. However, this will not affect the lawfulness of any processing before you withdraw your consent. If you withdraw your consent, we may not be able to provide certain products or services to you. We will advise you if this is the case when you withdraw your consent.

You can claim compensation for damages caused by our breach of any data protection laws in some circumstances.

If you would like to exercise any of those rights, please:

  • email, call, or write to us at info@nationsecurity.com.
  • let us have enough information to identify you,
  • let us have proof of your identity and address (a copy of your driving license or passport and a recent utility or credit card bill), and
  • let us know the information to which your request relates.

In the limited circumstances where you may have provided your consent to collect, process, and transfer your personal information for a specific purpose, you have the right to withdraw your consent for that particular processing.

To withdraw your consent, please get in touch with info@nationsecurity.com. Once we have received notification that you have withdrawn your consent, we will no longer process your information for the purpose or purposes you originally agreed to unless we have another legitimate basis for doing so in law.

KEEPING YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION SECURE

We have appropriate security measures to prevent personal information from being accidentally lost, used, or accessed in an unauthorized way. We limit access to your personal information to those who have a genuine business need to know it. Those processing your information will do so only in an authorized manner and are subject to a duty of confidentiality.

We also have procedures to deal with any suspected data security breach. We will notify you and any applicable regulator of a suspected data security breach where we are legally required to do so.

DATA PROTECTION OFFICER

We have appointed a data protection officer (DPO) to oversee compliance with this privacy notice. If you have any questions about this privacy notice or how we handle your personal information, please contact the DPO by emailing nationsecurity.com.

You have the right to make a complaint to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO), the UK supervisory authority for data protection issues.

CHANGES TO THIS PRIVACY NOTICE AND YOUR DUTY TO INFORM US OF CHANGES

We keep our privacy policy under regular review and reserve the right to update this privacy notice, and we will provide you with a new privacy notice on this page nationsecurity.com.

The personal data we hold about you must be accurate and current. Please keep us informed if your Data changes during your relationship with us.
