Introduction
This privacy statement informs you about how we process information that we record about you, whether provided by you, or by another person or organisation. It applies to information that could identify you as an individual (“personal information”) and information that does not, including that which relates to your business. In the context of the law and this notice, “process” means collect, store, transfer, use or otherwise act on information.
We are committed to the protection of your privacy and confidentiality. We recognise that you are entitled to know that your data will not be used for any unintended purpose, and will not accidentally fall into the hands of a third party.
​
We undertake to preserve the confidentiality of all information you provide to us, and hope that you reciprocate.
​
We have in place procedures and training for data protection, confidentiality and information security. These are regularly reviewed to ensure that they remain effective.
​
Our policy complies with the Data Protection Act 2018 (Act).
​
The law requires us to tell you about your rights and our obligations to you in regards to the processing and control of your personal data. We do this now, by requesting that you read the information provided at www.knowyourprivacyrights.org
​
Except as set out below, we do not share, or sell, or disclose to a third party, any information collected through our website.
​
Data we process
We provide a range of services to businesses and personal clients. We aim to process data, whether personal data or not, only to the extent necessary for us to provide our clients with our services and for other agreed purposes.
​
Often we may aggregate information in a general way and use it to provide class information. If we use it for this purpose, you as an individual will not be personally identifiable.
​
Personal clients
​
If you are a personal client, personal data that we may process may include contact information, information about your business activities, information about your family members, and financial information such as that relating to your income, expenses, taxation and investments. Some of our services may also require us to process information deemed to be “special category” information, such as your race or ethnic origin, information about your health and medical history, information about your sexual life and orientation, criminal records, and information about your political, religious or philosophical beliefs. In most cases, your personal data will have been provided to us by you. However, with your consent, or if it is necessary in order to provide you with our services, we may have obtained your personal data from a third party source.
​
Third parties connected to clients & suppliers
​
We may process your personal data if you have a personal or business connection with any of our clients or suppliers. For example, you may be a family member, business partner, other adviser, supplier or transaction counterparty.
​
The data we process may include contact information, information about business activities, information about partners, directors, employees, information relating to employment remuneration and payroll, and financial information such as that relating to income, expenses, taxation and investments.
​
We maybe given your personal data by our clients or suppliers, or by third parties acting on the instructions of a client or a supplier.
​
We ask our clients and suppliers to bring this privacy notice to your attention as soon as they become aware that we process your personal data.
​
Suppliers
​
If you supply our business with goods or services, including subcontracted services that we supply to our clients, then we may process your personal information. However, we do so only to the extent necessary to contract with you.
​
In most cases, your personal data will have been provided to us by you. However, sometimes we use third parties such as credit rating agencies to make decisions regarding our relationship.
​
The bases on which we process personal information
​
The law requires us to determine under which of six defined bases we process different categories of your personal information, and to notify you of the basis for each category.
​
If a basis on which we process your personal information is no longer relevant then we shall immediately stop processing your data.
​
If the basis changes then if required by law we shall notify you of the change and of any new basis under which we have determined that we can continue to process your information.
​
Information we process because we have a contractual obligation
​
We may process personal information when a contract has been formed with our business and processing is necessary to carry out our obligations under that contract, or when processing personal data is necessary in order to form a contract.
​
We shall continue to process this information until the contract between us ends or is terminated by either party under the terms of the contract.
​
Information we process with your consent
​
Only when you have given us explicit permission to do so, do we process your personal information under the basis of consent.
​
For example, you might have agreed that we may pass your name and contact information to selected associates whom we consider may provide services or products you would find useful.
​
We continue to process your information on this basis until you withdraw your consent or it can be reasonably assumed that your consent no longer exists.
​
You may withdraw your consent at any time by instructing us mail@theinvisibleassistant.co.uk. However, if you do so, you may not be able to use our website or our services further.
​
Information we process for the purposes of legitimate interests
​
We may process information on the basis there is a legitimate interest, either to you or to us, of doing so.
​
Where we process your information on this basis, we do after having given careful consideration to:
-
whether the same objective could be achieved through other means
-
·whether processing (or not processing) might cause you harm
-
·whether you would expect us to process your data, and whether you would, in the round, consider it reasonable to do so

-
record-keeping for the proper and necessary administration of our business
-
responding to communication from you to which we believe you would expect a response
-

-
insuring against or obtaining professional advice that is required to manage business risk
-
protecting your interests where we believe we have a duty to do so
​
Information we process because we have a legal obligation
​
Sometimes, we must process your information in order to comply with a statutory obligation.
​
For example, we may be required to give information to legal or tax authorities if they so request or if they have the proper authorisation such as a search warrant or court order. This may include your personal information.
​

​
We use that information to resolve your complaint.
​
If your complaint reasonably requires us to contact some other person, we may decide to give to that other person some of the information contained in your complaint. We do this as infrequently as possible, but it is a matter for our sole discretion as to whether we do give information, and if we do, what that information is.
​
If the complaint relates to information on our website and we feel it is justified or if we believe the law requires us to do so, we shall remove the information while we investigate.
​
If we think your complaint is vexatious or without any basis, we shall not correspond with you about it.
