Legitimate Interests

We process your personal information for our legitimate business purposes, which include the following:

Compliance With Laws

We may process your personal data in order to comply with applicable laws.

If you have never purchased from us or have not purchased from us for a long time, but have given us your explicit consent to hear from us about our products or services that we consider may be of interest to you, we will contact you (according to the contact preference you have provided). You have the right to withdraw consent to marketing at any time.

7. How Long Will Your Personal Data Be Kept For?

We carefully consider the personal data that we store, and we will not keep your information in a form that identifies you for longer than is necessary for the purposes set out in this notice or as required by applicable law. We respect requests to stop processing your personal data for marketing purposes.

8. Do We Transfer Personal Data Outside The EEA?

Although we are a UK based company, we may transfer your personal information to a location (for example, to a secure server) outside the European Economic Area, if we consider it necessary or desirable for the purposes set out in this notice.

In such cases, to safeguard your privacy rights, transfers will be made to recipients to which a European Commission “adequacy decision” applies (this is a decision from the European Commission confirming that adequate safeguards are in place in that location for the protection of personal data), or will be carried out under standard contractual clauses that have been approved by the European Commission as providing appropriate safeguards for international personal data transfers, or by the adoption of EU-US Privacy Shield.

9. How Do We Keep Your Personal Data Secure?

Precision Microdrives has security measures in place designed to prevent data loss, to preserve data integrity, and to regulate access to the data. Only our employees and third parties processing data on our behalf have access to your personal data.

All our employees who have access to your personal data are required to adhere to our Privacy Notice and we have in place contractual safeguards with our third-party data processors to ensure that your personal data is processed only as instructed by Precision Microdrives.

The security measures we have in place include:

We take all reasonable steps to keep your data safe and secure and to ensure the data is accessed only by those who have a legitimate interest to do so. Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure. Although we will do our best to protect your personal data, we cannot guarantee the security of your data transmitted to us. Any transmission is at your own risk. Once we have received your personal data, we will use strict procedures and security features to try to prevent unauthorised access.

13. California Consumer Privacy Act 2018: Your Privacy Rights As A California Resident  

We are currently exempt from complying with the California Consumer Privacy Act 2018, however, we regularly monitor the criteria and will publish a full CCPA policy should the situation change.
