1.    The Data Protection Principles

This Policy aims to ensure compliance with the Regulation.  The Regulation sets out the following principles with which any party handling personal data must comply.  All personal data must be:

a) Processed lawfully, fairly and in a transparent manner in relation to the data subject.

b) Collected for specified, explicit and legitimate purpose and not further processed in a manner that is incompatible with those purposes; further processing for archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes or statistical purposes shall not be considered to be incompatible with the initial purposes.

c) Adequate, relevant and limited to what is necessary in relation to the purposes for which it is processed.

d) Accurate and, where necessary, kept up to date; every reasonable step must be taken to ensure that personal data that is inaccurate, having regard to the purposes for which they are processed, is erased or rectified without delay.

e) Kept in a form which permits identification of data subjects for no longer than is necessary for the purposes for which the personal data is processed; personal data may be stored for longer periods insofar as the personal data will be processed solely for archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes or statistical purposes subject to implementation of the appropriate technical and organisational measures required by the Regulation in order to safeguard the rights and freedoms of the data subject.

f) Processed in a manner that ensures appropriate security of the personal data, including protection against unauthorised or unlawful processing and against accidental loss, destruction or damage, using appropriate technical or organisational measures.

 

2.      Lawful, Fair, and Transparent Data Processing

The Regulation seeks to ensure that personal data is processed lawfully, fairly, and transparently, without adversely affecting the rights of the data subject.  The Regulation states that processing of personal data shall be lawful if at least one of the following applies:

a) The data subject has given consent to the processing of his or her personal data for one or more specific purposes.

b) Processing is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party or in order to take steps at the request of the data subject prior to entering into a contract.

c) Processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which the controller is subject.

d) Processing is necessary to protect the vital interests of the data subject or of another natural person.

e) Processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller.

f) Processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by the controller or by a third party, except where such interests are overridden by the fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject which require protection of personal data, in particular where the data subject is a child.

 

3.      Processed for Specified, Explicit and Legitimate Purposes

3.1 BBP collects and processes the personal data set out in Part 20 of this Policy.  This may include personal data received directly from data subjects (for example, contact details used when a data subject communicates with us) 

3.2 BBP only processes personal data for the specific purposes set out in Part 20 of this Policy (or for other purposes expressly permitted by the Regulation).  The purposes for which we process personal data will be provided to data subjects via a link to our company Data Privacy, Cookie & Retention Policy either at the time that their personal data is collected via a ‘Contact Us’ section (must tick to indicate they have read), or as soon as possible (not more than one calendar month) after collection where it is obtained from a third party.
