DATA PRIVACY POLICY
It is the policy of MIRA Technology Park that it shall at all times observe data protection law and respect the rights and privacy of individuals by processing personal data only for legitimate and lawful purposes and in strict adherence to data protection legislation. Our lawful basis for processing personal data is specifically in accordance with one or more of the following:
With the explicit consent of the individual
- For the performance of a contract (or prior to a contact where this is requested by the individual)
- A legal obligation upon us e.g. tax affairs
- In the vital interests of an individual
- In the public interest or exercise of official authority
- For our legitimate business interests limited specifically to the extent that the Data Protection Principles (specified in current legislation) allow
We ensure that all personal information processed by us is done so fairly, lawfully and with appropriate justification and that any personal information used by us or on our behalf is of the highest quality in terms of accuracy, relevance, adequacy and limitation. It will also be kept up-to-date, be protected appropriately and securely destroyed when no longer required.
Where personal data is held purely by virtue of the consent of the individual, that consent will be explicitly given, recorded and may be withdrawn at any time without penalty.
Where personal data is shared with third parties this will be done under a lawful basis and adequate protection mechanisms will be assured.
MIRA Technology Park uses an external 3rd party data processor for automated customer contact. We use MailChimp and you can read their Privacy Policy at https://mailchimp.com/legal/privacy/. Contact with customers is only made on the basis that the customer has affirmatively opted in to receive such contact. MailChimp is a US based firm that are compliant with the EU/US Privacy Shield Arrangement and so meet the requirements of GDPR on the basis of an adequacy mechanism being in place for the sharing of personal data.
