FDPR PRIVACY NOTICE
Effective September 2019
FDPR might collect and process personal data of users of FDPR website and online services. This Privacy Policy applies to personal data we obtain from our customers and their representatives (“Users”) through our websites when the relevant User registers to FDPR’s cloud-based infrastructure and software services (collectively, the “Services”). In addition, some of our services might be subject to a separate privacy policy. If a separate privacy policy applies to a particular service, we will post it on the relevant website or otherwise in connection with the service in question.
This privacy policy applies to the personal data of our users and visitors.
Our Privacy Policy explains what data we process, how we do that and how the data subjects, i.e. Users, may use their rights (e.g. right to object, right of access). This Privacy Policy may be updated if required in order to reflect the changes in data processing practices or otherwise. The current version can be found on our website www.fdpr.co.uk. We will not make substantial changes to this Privacy Policy or reduce the rights of Users under this Privacy Policy without providing a notice thereof.
This policy might receive small updates, and if so, we’ll let you know.
This Privacy Policy only covers data processing carried out by FDPR. The Privacy Policy does not address, and we are not responsible for the privacy practices of any third parties. FDPR disclaims all responsibility for the processing carried out by third parties, also in cases where services include hyperlinks to third parties’ websites.
We take care of our users’ privacy but cannot be responsible for the privacy practices of any third parties.
Please note that this Privacy Policy applies to processing of personal data carried out by FDPR as a data controller.
Privacy, security and online safety are important for us, and we process all personal data with due care and in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.

Purposes and legitimate grounds for processing of personal data.
There are several purposes for the processing of personal data by FDPR. Personal data is processed by FDPR for managing the relationships with customers, facilitating transactions and payments, and for managing, developing and analysing our customer service. Personal data is also used to direct marketing at special customer groups, and other business activities related to any of these activities.
We process personal data to provide you with our services.
Personal data is also processed by FDPR for the following purposes:
To provide our Services and carry out our contractual obligations.
We process personal data in the first place to be able to offer the Services to our customers and Users and to run, maintain and develop our business. In some cases, personal data may be processed in order to carry out our contractual obligations towards the User. We may use the data for example to offer essential functionalities of the Services and to provide access to the Services. If User contacts our customer service, we will use the provided information for answering questions and solving possible issues.
For customer communication.
We may process personal data for the purpose of contacting Users regarding our Services and to inform Users of changes in our Services. Data may also be used for research and analysis purposes in order to improve our Services.
For relevant offers.
When we have new programs or services that are of relevant interest based on your engagement with our previous training materials and service, we may let you know about these via email, phone, and/or text.
For quality improvement and trend analysis.
We may process information regarding the use of the Services to improve the quality of our Services e.g. by analysing any trends in the use of our Services. When possible, we will do this using only aggregated, non- personally identifiable data.
Legitimate grounds for processing.
We process personal data to perform our contractual obligations towards Users and to comply with legal obligations. Furthermore, we process personal data to pursue our legitimate interest to run, maintain and develop our business. In some parts of the Services, Users may be requested to grant their consent for the processing of personal data. In this event, Users may withdraw their consent at any time.
Transfer to countries outside of The United Kingdom.
We store the Users’ personal data primarily within the United Kingdom. However, we have service providers in several geographical locations. As such, we and our service providers may transfer personal data to, or access it in, jurisdictions outside the UK or the User’s domicile.
We will take steps to ensure that the Users’ personal data receives an adequate level of protection in the jurisdictions in which it is processed. We provide adequate protection for the transfers of personal data to countries outside of the UK through a series of agreements with our service providers based on the Standard Contractual Clauses or other similar arrangements.
More information regarding the transfers of personal data may be obtained by contacting us on addresses mentioned in this Privacy Policy.
We usually keep your personal data within the UK, but might need to transfer or access it elsewhere, if so we’ll make sure your data is kept safe.
Recipients.
We only share personal data within the organisation of FDPR if and as far as reasonably necessary to perform and develop our Services. We do not share personal data with third parties outside of FDPR’s organization unless one of the following circumstances applies:
It is necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy
To the extent that third parties need access to personal data to perform the Services, iBusiness Coach has taken appropriate contractual and organisational measures to ensure that personal data are processed exclusively for the purposes specified in this Privacy Policy and in accordance with all applicable laws and regulations.
For legal reasons
We may share personal data with third parties outside FDPR’s organization if we have a good-faith belief that access to and use of the personal data is reasonably necessary to: (i) meet any applicable law, regulation, and/or court order; (ii) detect, prevent, or otherwise address fraud, security or technical issues; and/or (iii) protect the interests, properties or safety of FDPR, our Users or the public in accordance with the law. When possible, we will inform Users about such transfer and processing.
To authorized service providers
We may share personal data to authorized service providers who perform services for us (including data storage, sales, marketing and customer support services). Our agreements with our service providers include commitments that the service providers agree to limit their use of personal data and to comply with privacy and security standards at least as stringent as the terms of this Privacy Policy. Please bear in mind that if you provide personal data directly to a third party, such as through a link on our website, the processing is typically based on their policies and standards.
For other legitimate reasons
If FDPR is involved in a merger, acquisition or asset sale, we may transfer personal data to the third party involved. However, we will continue to ensure the confidentiality of all personal data. We will give notice to all Users concerned when the personal data are transferred or become subject to a different privacy policy as soon as reasonably possible.
With explicit consent
We may share personal data with third parties outside FDPR’s organization for other reasons than the ones mentioned before, when we have the User’s explicit consent to do so. The User has the right to withdraw this consent at all times.
We do not share your personal data with third-parties unless necessary to provide you with our services or for legal reasons.
Storage period
FDPR does not store personal data longer than is legally permitted and necessary for the purposes of providing the Services or the relevant parts thereof. The storage period depends on the nature of the information and the purposes of processing. The maximum period may therefore vary per use. Typically, we will store User’s personal data for as long as the User or the relevant customer User represents is a registered subscriber or a registered user of our Services or for as long as we have another purpose to do so and, thereafter, for no longer than is required or permitted by law or reasonably necessary for internal reporting and reconciliation purposes. In general, personal data of Users are deleted within reasonable time after the User no longer uses any part of the Services or when the User makes a request regarding deletion of User’s personal data.
We only store your personal data for while you are using our services. The data will be deleted within reasonable time after you’ve stopped using our services or request your personal data to be deleted.
