The Lawful Basis by which We Process your Personal Data

Your consent – By accepting the terms of this Privacy Policy, you give TWEEDL your express, freely given consent to process any of your personal data in accordance with the terms of this policy. You may withdraw your consent given at any time by contacting team@tweedl.co.uk

in order to perform any agreement between us (including pursuant to our Website Terms and Conditions or for us to fulfil prize delivery to you in respect of a competition which you have entered);

to comply with any applicable law or regulation; or

for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by us or third parties. These legitimate interests include the purposes identified above but also include other general commercial interests and our internal administrative purposes.

Sharing Personal Information with Third Parties

We will not share any of your personal information with third parties except as set out within this Privacy Policy. We may share personal information with our partnered company, First Data, in order to process your payment for entry into a competition on the Website. From time to time, we will also need to share personal data with the following types of third-party service providers who we engage to provide services which facilitate our business and who may need to process your personal data to the extent necessary to provide those services:

Prize partners who will provide the competition prize experience,

email service providers, Word Press, Mailchimp

professional service providers, such as marketing agencies, advertising partners and website hosts in particular,

competition management, fulfilment and verification services,

integration platform providers;

address verification services;

other third parties approved by you, such as social media sites, or share content via or third parties who administer any competitions or surveys on our behalf which you voluntarily partake in; and

We seek to ensure that any third party engaged by us who processes your personal data has policies and procedures in place to ensure compliance with the Data Protection Legislation. Unless otherwise disclosed to you from time to time, we will remain the data controller in respect of your personal data despite the fact that third parties may be engaged as data processors.

We may share your personal information with third parties where we are required to do so by law or regulation (such as in connection with an investigation of fraud or other legal enquiry) or in connection with other legal proceedings (including where we believe that your actions violate applicable laws, our Website Terms of Use, any competition terms & conditions, or threaten the rights, property, or safety of TWEEDL, our users, or others).

How Long We Retain Your Personal Data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

If you register on our Website, we also store the personal information you provide in your user profile. You can see, edit, or delete your personal information at any time (except you cannot change your username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

Otherwise, as a maximum, we will store your data for 6 months from the last active response but in most cases, we will retain certain of your personal data for only as long as is reasonably necessary taking into consideration factors such as:

our need to perform any agreements between you and us (including prize fulfilment);

our need to answer any queries or resolve any problems you may have;

your continued consent to receive marketing and other emails and communications from us (if any);

our continued provision of our services to you; and

our need to comply with legal requirements (e.g. relating to record keeping).

If you tell us that you would like to delete your account, we will take steps to delete all the personal data we hold about you once it is no longer necessary for us to hold it (e.g. to fulfil any outstanding prize fulfilment, resolve disputes, or as is permitted by law or regulation).

How We Protect Your Personal Data

For as long as we do store your personal data, we will follow generally accepted industry standards and maintain reasonable safeguards to attempt to ensure the security, integrity, and privacy of the information you have provided. TWEEDL has security measures in place designed to protect against the loss, misuse, and alteration of the information under our control. Personal data collected by us is stored in secure operating environments that are not available to the public. We maintain information behind a firewall-protected server.

Notwithstanding our efforts to keep your personal data secure, no system can be 100% reliable. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we cannot be held liable for any loss you may suffer if a third party procures unauthorised access to any personal data you provide through the Channels. In addition, you are responsible for maintaining the strength and confidentiality of your login credentials.

We will notify you as soon as reasonably practicable if we have reason to believe that there has been a personal data breach by us (or your personal data held by us) which could adversely affect your rights and freedoms.
