In order to deliver our services and to carry out necessary business functions, we may collect certain personal data from you in a variety of ways, such as, through our website, Instagram, via email, text, LinkedIn, our online platform, or verbally. These details may include (where applicable), names, contact details and basic employment details. Depending on the service we are delivering to you or your company, we may also ask for more detailed information. Personal data we obtain is collected in a few key ways:
● data disclosed by the individual.

● data obtained from a linked system or database.
● data generated through user interaction with systems/services.

Contacting you to assess the quality of our services, administrative activities, legal obligations of the business, statistical and marketing analysis, customer surveys, and customer relations communications and offering you services and products we believe may interest you. You will always be told what we intend to do with any personal data we collect from you, however, the principal reasons are to:
● support the delivery of contracted services and products, or
● for our own legitimate interests in monitoring the usage of our services and improving the service provided to our customers.

Keeping Personal Data Secure
Keeping Personal Data Secure Our website and online services are protected by firewalls and we have implemented security policies, rules, and technical measures to protect the data in our control. These security measures are designed to prevent unauthorised access, improper use or disclosure, unauthorised modification, and unlawful destruction or accidental loss.
Any information you provide us with when using our services is stored centrally on secure systems. Direct access to these databases is restricted to authorised personnel and their appointed agents only. We have taken every reasonable step to ensure that your personal data is always held securely, and that access to these is closely monitored. We use security measures to protect against the loss, misuse, and alteration of data within our systems.
Please be aware, however, that no internet or email transmission is ever fully secure or error-free. You should take special care in deciding what personal data you send to us via email and keep this in mind when disclosing any personal data to us via the Internet.
Controlling Your Personal Data
Any personal data we collect from you or we generate as a result of your interaction with our systems and services belongs to you. Under the data protection laws in the UK you therefore have the right to know if your data is being processed, why and for how long. This will include details of what categories of data we process (e.g. storing your name and contact details in a CRM system), whether your data has been disclosed to third parties and their identities, and how to raise a complaint with the information commissioner’s office (ICO).
In addition to your right of access to data we process, Jamm Consulting will uphold other rights afforded to you under the applicable data protection laws in the UK, namely:
● the right to request that errors in your personal data processed by (or on behalf of) Jamm Consulting is amended or corrected;
● the right to erase your personal data if such data is no longer needed for its original purpose, or where the processing is based on consent and you withdraw that consent (and no other lawful basis for the processing exists);
● the right to restrict processing where the relevant personal data either cannot be deleted (e.g. because the data are required for the purposes of exercising or defending legal claims) or where you do not wish to have the data deleted;
● the right to object to processing carried out for the purposes of direct marketing, where processing is likely to cause or is causing damage or distress, or where you may be evaluated or subject to decisions on the basis of automated processing;
● the right to request a copy of the personal data you have provided to us for yourself, or for it to be transferred to another organisation, if the processing was based on consent, the provision of business services under a contract, or processing carried out by automated means.
Data Breach
We have in place a procedure if a breach of security leading to the accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorised disclosure of, or access to, personal data transmitted, stored, or otherwise processed in connection with the provision of public electronic communications service occurs. We will assess the scope and impact of the breach. Based on the assessment of the likely risks to individuals, we will notify the individuals and/or their connected organisations that a data breach has occurred where this may result in a significant risk to the rights and freedoms of individuals, or where we may be in breach of a contractual obligation. Any such notification to individuals will be carried out as soon as reasonably possible and will include information on the nature of the breach, the name and contact details of our data protection officer, the likely consequences of the breach, measures taken or proposed by Jamm Consulting to address it, and recommendations for affected individuals to mitigate any potential adverse effects. Such individuals will also be provided advice on how to make a complaint to the ICO.
If, due to the nature of the breach Jamm Consulting is required to inform the ICO, we will do so within 72 hours of becoming aware of the essential facts of the breach. Such notification must include at least: your name and contact details; the date and time of the breach (or an estimate); the date and time we detected it; basic information about the type of breach; and basic information about the personal data concerned.
Who Has Access To Your Personal Data?
We do not sell your personal information to third-party companies. We transfer personal data to the following categories of recipients:
● Companies who we appoint under contract to host our services.
● Companies or individuals who we appoint to provide services to us which include processing personal data.
● Actual or potential business partners who need access to personal data to evaluate or carry out a business relationship or to conclude a transaction with us The data we collect about you is generally accessed only by authorised Jamm Consulting employees for legitimate business purposes and providing services as part of a contract. However, if we work with partners or contractors, they may have limited access to your personal data but only so much to do their job.
The following outlines who has access to your personal data, and under what circumstances:
● Jamm Consulting employees and other staff who are involved in arranging and delivering the services you request (where privacy is legally covered under their contract of employment);
● a contracted consultant of Jamm Consulting to provide services to you on our behalf, and therefore bound under terms within their contract relating to confidentiality and privacy that is to the same standard and level asJamm Consulting employees;
How Long We Hold Data

● for customers’ users we retain data while we are contracted. Post termination we will retain information in the same way as other prospective customers as follows.
● for prospective customers we retain data for up to three years post receipt, renewed consent or customer contract termination.
After that time, unless there is a need to retain that data for purposes connected with protecting our interests or those of third parties we will erase all data other than that needed to comply with our statutory obligations.
While this section of the privacy policy summarises and clarifies parts of our data retention policy, it does not supersede it. The time limits for certain items subject to legislation specified in detail in the data retention policy remain in force, and we are happy to provide further information to you about this at your request.
