M2R2 values and respects the privacy of its stakeholders. It is our policy to comply with all applicable laws and regulations regarding the collection, use, and sharing of any personal information we may gather about you, including across our website, http://m2r2.co.uk/, and other sites we own and operate. This privacy policy outlines our commitment to safeguarding your data and protecting your personal information.
Information we collect falls into one of two categories: "voluntarily provided" information and "automatically collected" information. "Voluntarily provided" information refers to any information you knowingly and actively provide us when using or participating in any of our services and promotions. "Automatically collected" information refers to any information automatically sent by your devices in the course of accessing our products and services.
We only collect and use your personal information when we have a legitimate reason for doing so. In which instance, we only collect personal information that is reasonably necessary to provide our services to you.
The collected data is primarily used to tailor our services, facilitate effective recruitment, and maintain transparent client relations. We also use the information for internal record-keeping and service improvement purposes.
When we collect and process personal information, and while we retain this information, we will protect it within commercially acceptable means to prevent loss and theft, as well as unauthorised access, disclosure, copying, use or modification.
We keep your personal information only for as long as we need to. This time period may depend on what we are using your information for, in accordance with this privacy policy.
We do not aim any of our products or services directly at children under the age of 13 and we do not knowingly collect personal information about children under 13.
We do not sell or lease personal information. However, we may share personal information with partner Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) strictly for recruitment purposes, as required by law, or with our employees, contractors, and/or related entities strictly for operational purposes.
The personal information we collect is stored and/or processed in the United Kingdom, or where we or our partners, affiliates, and third-party providers maintain facilities.
You have rights over your personal information, including the right to access, correct, or delete the information we hold about you.
We use cookies to collect information about you and your activity across our site. This helps us serve you content based on preferences you have specified.
If we or our assets are acquired, or in the unlikely event that we go out of business or enter bankruptcy, your information may be transferred to any parties who acquire us.
We may update our privacy policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page.
The GDPR distinguishes between organisations that process personal information for their own purposes (known as "data controllers") and organizations that process personal information on behalf of other organizations (known as "data processors"). For the purposes covered by this Privacy Policy, we are a Data Controller with respect to the personal information you provide to us and remain compliant with our data controller obligations under GDPR.
We may indirectly collect personal information about you from third-parties who have your permission to share it. For example, if you purchase a product or service from a business working with us, and give your permission for us to use your details in order to complete the transaction. We may also collect publicly available information about you, such as from any social media and messaging platforms you may use. The availability of this information will depend on both the privacy policies and your own privacy settings on such platforms.
In addition to the aforementioned purposes warranting the collection and use of personal information, we may also conduct marketing and market research activities, including how visitors use our site, website improvement opportunities and user experience.
If your personal information is no longer required for our stated purposes, or if you instruct us under your Data Subject Rights, we will delete it or make it anonymous by removing all details that identify you ("Anonymisation"). However, if necessary, we may retain your personal information for our compliance with a legal, accounting, or reporting obligation or for archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific, or historical research purposes or statistical purposes.
Data Protection and Privacy Laws permit us to collect and use your personal data on a limited number of grounds. We will collect and use your personal information lawfully, fairly and in a transparent manner. We never directly market to any person(s) under 18 years of age. Our lawful bases depend on the services you use and how you use them. This is a non-exhaustive list of the lawful bases we use.
The personal information we collect is stored and/or processed in the United Kingdom by us. Following an adequacy decision by the EU Commission, the UK has been granted an essentially equivalent level of protection to that guaranteed under UK GDPR. On some occasions, where we share your data with third parties, they may be based outside of the UK, or the European Economic Area ("EEA"). These countries to which we store, process, or transfer your personal information may not have the same data protection laws as the country in which you initially provided the information.
