  1. GDPR

1.9 Policies and procedures (Article 5)

In order to ensure that Adventoris has considered its privacy obligations and implements the 7 GDPR protection principles, Adventoris has implemented clear and concise data protection policies.

Article 5 of the GDPR sets out seven key principles which lie at the heart of the general data protection regime.

Article 5(1) requires that personal data shall be:

“(a) processed lawfully, fairly and in a transparent manner in relation to individuals (‘lawfulness, fairness and transparency’);

Adventoris acquires its data legally from the MINT Database, which is part of Bureau van Dijk (BvD), one of the world’s leading business information publishers, as an opted in account willing to receive marketing emails of relevance and interest. Adventoris aims to teach and inform businesses about how implementing an app into their already existing web ordering system can enhance sales and cut costs. Adventoris are completely transparent about this within all forms of marketing. Adventoris do not aim to mislead in anyway about the product they are offering, and the option to unsubscribe to all marketing channels is clear within email marketing, telesales and personal emails. If any person wishes to request their data be removed this will be done immediately, or subsequently if they wish to know what data Adventoris hold on them.

(b) collected for specified, explicit and legitimate purposes and not further processed in a manner that is incompatible with those purposes; further processing for archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes or statistical purposes shall not be considered to be incompatible with the initial purposes (‘purpose limitation’);

Adventoris state that, the data is collected and stored, as there is a legitimate interest for the companies (within the categories outlined in section 1.3) to have knowledge and understanding of the benefits of the SwiftCloud application, which is the interest of their company can help operations, increase sales and cut costs. 

(c) adequate, relevant and limited to what is necessary in relation to the purposes for which they are processed (‘data minimisation’);

The data collected and stored by Adventoris is selectively chosen via SIC code to ensure that only the data of companies who meet the needs of their product will be contacted. Market research has been undertaken to understand which companies would have legitimate interest and would highly benefit from the SwiftCloud application, these company SIC codes are outlined in section 1.3. 

(d) accurate and, where necessary, kept up to date; every reasonable step must be taken to ensure that personal data that are inaccurate, having regard to the purposes for which they are processed, are erased or rectified without delay (‘accuracy’);

The data subjects that Adventoris holds comes from the MINT database which states their data is accurate and up to date and cleansed on a regular basis, furthermore, Adventoris takes all necessary steps to ensure that the data held within Salesforce is regularly updated and maintained.  How is it updated and maintained? The best way to obtain information about a business is to phone up and ask which Adventoris BDMs all day, every day as they work through the data. BDMs check the name and address, number of staffs, what sort of premises and even the web site address. Every business gets a call from Adventoris at least once a year and more often if they suspect something has changed.

 (e) kept in a form which permits identification of data subjects for no longer than is necessary for the purposes for which the personal data are processed; personal data may be stored for longer periods insofar as the personal data will be processed solely for archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes or statistical purposes subject to implementation of the appropriate technical and organisational measures required by the GDPR in order to safeguard the rights and freedoms of individuals (‘storage limitation’);

The data is reviewed after 1 year to establish whether the company has an interest in the SwiftCloud application. Due to the nature of the business, many companies will request a call back after long periods of time which can be up to one year, therefore, large amounts of data will remain in the database for significant periods of time. If a request to opt out of any of the marketing processes occurs, Adventoris will hold onto that data for one year, (which is be marked off as not to contact) to ensure that the company is aware this contact does not wish to be contacted via email for example, and this will ensure that the recipient is not contacted by Adventoris.

(f) processed in a manner that ensures appropriate security of the personal data, including protection against unauthorised or unlawful processing and against accidental loss, destruction or damage, using appropriate technical or organisational measures (‘integrity and confidentiality’).”

The data is processes within accordance of GDPR. The data is held within a secure data base, and the employees of Adventoris have been trained in the necessary data handling procedures.

 (g) The controller shall be responsible for, and able to demonstrate, compliance with the GDPR (‘accountability’).”

Joe Tully, the acting Adventoris Data Protection Officer will be responsible for maintain the data, staff training, and ensuring the company is GDPR compliant.

  1. Lawfulness of data processing

Adventoris has established the legal basis on which grounds it processes all the direct personal data it holds.

“Processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests perused by the controller or by a third party, except where such interests are overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject which require protection of personal data”.

Adventoris relies on legitimate interests for the storing of data and marketing activities as data is proportionate, has a minimal privacy impact, and businesses would not be surprised or likely to object to the activity.

Adventoris acquires its data legally from the MINT Database, which is part of Bureau van Dijk (BvD), one of the world’s leading business information publishers, as an opted in account willing to receive marketing emails of relevance and interest.

Adventoris aims to teach and inform businesses about how implementing an app into their already existing web ordering system can enhance sales and cut costs.

3.1. Consent

All data subjects have the right to opt out of any marketing activity, this is clearly stated on all marketing materials. Once a data subject has opted out, this will be marked across their data file within Salesforce. Data subjects also have the right to be removed from the data base, and forgotten, this is outlined within the privacy policy.

Profiling and automated decision making is not currently being used by Adventoris. Adventoris, to the best of their knowledge, do not process personal or any data of Children, or anyone under the age of 18.

  1. Rights of the data subject

Data subjects, and employees have the right request their personal data processed by Adventoris. Adventoris have an outlined response below and usually reply within 24 hours.

Adventoris have processes in place which enable data subjects to exercise their rights. Any unlawful use, or incorrect information stored will be rectified, and data subjects have the right to inform Adventoris of any issues.
