2. Data Protection Framework
Carbs Digital follows strict security procedures on how your personal information is stored and used, in accordance with the Data Protection Act 1998 and Electronic Communications (EC Directive) Regulations 2003 (“data protection laws”). We have also aligned our Privacy Policy with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), under the supervision of the ICO within the UK.

3. Customer and Citizen Data
You may decide to send us your personal information via this website if you are seeking more information, requesting to use our services, willing to receive marketing materials, or for other similar purposes. Your decision to disclose your personal data is entirely voluntary, and by doing so, you are providing us with specific consent to use your personal data only for the purposes for which you have disclosed it to us.

Carbs Digital may access and use your Customer Data only for the purposes for which you have submitted it to us, to

• make contact with you;
• provide information to you;

• to analyse and optimise the services offered e.g. service feedback, business management, research and analysis;
• keep you updated of special offers and general information via our e-newsletter.

We will not use your personal information for any other purposes, unless we have your specific consent to do so.

Carbs Digital will keep your information confidential except where disclosure is required or permitted by law (for example to government bodies and law enforcement agencies). We will not pass your information on to 3rd parties for marketing or sales purposes.

Carbs Digital will at all times handle and store your personal data in accordance with industry best practice aligned with ISO27001, the international standard for information security.

4. Sensitive Personal Data
GDPR specifies a set of personal data categories which are considered to be “sensitive”, and which require special consideration by Data Controllers. This website, and any services available from this website, do not knowingly collect or process any sensitive personal data.

5. Children’s Personal Data
This website, and any services available from this website, are not directed to children under the age of 13. If you learn that a child under the age of 13 has provided us with their personal information without having parental consent, please contact the Carbs Digital Compliance Officer (see Section 12) immediately so that we can take appropriate action.

6. Customer and Citizen Data Rights
As prescribed within data protection regulations, you have several rights connected to the provision of your personal data to Carbs Digital using this website. These include your rights to request that Carbs Digital:

• corrects any inaccurate or incomplete personal data which may be held about you
• provides you with a complete copy of your personal data for you to move elsewhere
• stops processing your personal data, whilst an objection from you is being resolved
• permanently erases all your personal data promptly, and confirms to you that it has done so (there may be reasons why we may be unable to do this)

If Carbs Digital does not address your request, or fails to provide you with a valid reason why it is unable to do so, you have the right to contact the Information Commissioner’s Office to make a complaint. They can be contacted via their website (www.ico.org.uk).
