How we use (process) your personal information
Ashford Budgerigars may collect and process the following data about you where applicable:
Ashford Budgerigars will use your personal information to:
•    Ensure that content from our websites is presented in the most effective manner;
Ashford Budgerigars will not use any of the personal information we collect from you to make automated business decisions.
The legal basis on which we collect and process the personal data described above depends on the personal information concerned and the specific context in which we collect it.  However, we will only use your personal information where we:
•    Have your consent to do so;
•    Need to process your personal information for our legitimate interests and only where our legitimate interests are not overridden by your data protection interests or fundamental rights and freedoms;
•    Have a legal obligation to collect personal information from you; or
If we ask you to provide personal information to comply with a legal requirement or to perform a contract with you, we will make this clear at the relevant time, and advise you whether the provision of your personal information is mandatory or not (as well as the possible consequences if you do not provide your personal information).
When and how we share information with others
We will share information about you with some of our suppliers who process data on our behalf to help us to provide services to you. We may also share your personal data with third parties that we work with where it is lawful for us to do so.
Categories of organisation and purpose
•    Database hosting companies - to host Ashford Budgerigars digital platforms (e.g. Ashford Budgerigars website) and associated customer databases to enable customers to log in and interact with the website.
•    Social media companies (e.g. Facebook) - to provide you with relevant social media posts.

Transferring personal data outside of the EU
We do not envisage transferring any information about or relating to individuals to anyone who is located outside of the UK and European Economic Area.
However, on some occasions, the information we collect may be transferred to organisations who may store and use such data at premises in other countries. Where we allow an organisation to process your personal information outside of the UK and European Economic Area, we will ensure that we create and maintain appropriate safeguards with those organisations so that your personal information is subject to the same standards and protections as when we are processing your personal information inside the UK and European Economic Area.
Security of your information
Ashford Budgerigars will take all steps reasonably necessary including policies, procedures and security features to ensure that your data is treated securely and protected from unauthorised and unlawful access and/or use, and in accordance with this notice.  Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure and, although we will do our best to protect your personal data transmitted to us via the internet, we cannot guarantee the security of your data transmitted to our website from your device. Any transmission is at your own risk.
Data storage and retention
We will hold information about you in our data systems only for as long as we need it for the purpose for which we collected it.
Your rights
Data protection laws grant you, as a Data Subject, certain ‘information rights’, which are summarised below:
•    Right of access - You have the right to obtain a copy of information we hold about you.
•    Right of rectification or erasure - If you feel that any data that we hold about you is inaccurate, you have the right to ask us to correct or rectify it. You also have a right to ask us to erase information about you where you can demonstrate that the data we hold is no longer needed by us, or if you withdraw the consent upon which our processing is based, or if you feel that we are unlawfully processing your data. Please note that we may be entitled to retain your personal data despite your request, for example if we are under a separate legal obligation to retain it. Your right of rectification and erasure extends to anyone we have disclosed your personal information to and we will take all reasonable steps to inform those with whom we have shared their data about your request for erasure.
•    Right to restriction of processing - You have a right to request that we refrain from processing your data where you contest its accuracy, or the processing is unlawful and you have opposed its erasure, or where we do not need to hold your data any longer but you need us to in order to establish, exercise or defend any legal claims, or we are in dispute about the legality of our processing your personal data.
•    Right to Portability - You have a right to receive any personal data that you have provided to us in order to transfer it onto another data controller where the processing is based on consent and is carried out by automated means. This is called a data portability request.
•    Right to Object - You have a right to object to our processing your personal data where the basis of the processing is our legitimate interests including but not limited to direct marketing and profiling.
•    Right to Withdraw Consent - You have the right to withdraw your consent for the processing of your personal data where the processing is based on consent.
