Information We Share
We do not sell or otherwise disclose personal data that you provide to us or that we collect, except as described within this statement. Personal data that you provide directly to us will be apparent from the context in which you provide it, for example, if you require additional support, you should expect your details to be passed on to the relevant Inspire personnel; if you submit an enquiry etc. We may share personal data with service providers that perform further support services, i.e. Doctors, in this case, all service providers have entered into legally binding agreements require them to use or disclose personal data only as necessary to perform services on our behalf or comply with applicable legal requirements. To summarise, we may share personal data you provide to us or that we collect with other entities within The Inspire Group.
In addition, we may disclose personal data about you if we are required or permitted to do so by law or legal process, for example, due to a court order or request from a law enforcement agency when we believe the disclosure is necessary or appropriate to prevent physical harm or financial loss. We share depersonalised and anonymised data with Ulster University for research purposes with a Data Sharing Agreement in place, to evaluate, enhance, and provide evidence and outcomes of this service.
Storing, Managing, and Transferring data
The personal information that we collect is stored centrally on secure servers within the EU.
The Company has a strict data retention policy, where it has a justifiable business or legitimate legal reason to store data. Data with no legal or business purpose to retain, is erased with immediate effect and is not stored. Please note that the transmission of information via the internet (including email) is not completely secure and therefore, although we endeavour to protect the personal information you provide to us, we cannot guarantee the security of data sent to us electronically and the transmission of such data is therefore entirely at your own risk.
The Company shall process data in accordance with the relevant provisions in your county, for example if you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), the GDPR shall be adhered to and your data protected accordingly. If an international transfer of data must take place in order to provide the service agreed, data shall only be transferred where:
- The applicable country meets the requirements and has therefore been granted a European Commission on Adequacy.
- A US-EU Privacy Shield Exists.
- Appropriate safeguards have been applied, such as an EU Model Contract.
