A Family Space acts as the data controller for the personal information collected through our website and services.

We are responsible for ensuring that your data is processed in accordance with applicable data protection laws in the United Kingdom.

If you have any questions about our data practices, please contact us using the details provided below.

Information Collection

We collect information that you voluntarily provide to us when you interact with our website, such as when you register for an account, subscribe to our newsletter, or submit an inquiry.

This may include your name, email address, postal address, phone number, and any other details you choose to share.

We also automatically collect certain information about your device and browsing activity, including IP address, browser type, and pages visited, to enhance your experience.

Use of Information

The information we collect is primarily used to provide and improve our services, respond to your requests, and personalise your experience on our website.

We may also use your data for internal administrative purposes, such as data analysis, troubleshooting, and testing, to ensure the smooth operation of our services.

Additionally, your information helps us to understand user preferences and trends, allowing us to develop new features and content that better meet the needs of our community.

Legal Basis for Processing

We process your personal data based on several legal grounds, including your consent, the necessity of processing for the performance of a contract with you, and our legitimate interests.

Where we rely on your consent, you have the right to withdraw it at any time, though this will not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.

Our legitimate interests include improving our services, ensuring the security of our website, and conducting marketing activities, provided these do not override your fundamental rights and freedoms.

Data Sharing and Disclosure

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties.

We may share your data with trusted third-party service providers who assist us in operating our website, conducting our business, or serving our users, provided they agree to keep this information confidential.

We may also disclose your information when required by law, such as to comply with a subpoena or other legal process, or to protect our rights, property, or safety.

Data Security

We implement a variety of security measures to maintain the safety of your personal information when you place an order or enter, submit, or access your personal information.

These measures include encryption, firewalls, and secure server hosting, all designed to protect your data from unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.

Despite our efforts, no method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Data Retention

We retain your personal information for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.

To determine the appropriate retention period, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure, and the applicable legal requirements.

Once your data is no longer needed, we will securely delete or anonymise it.

Your Data Protection Rights

Under UK data protection law, you have the right to access, rectify, erase, restrict, or object to the processing of your personal data.

You also have the right to data portability, allowing you to obtain and reuse your personal data for your own purposes across different services.

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the contact details provided in this policy.

International Data Transfers

Your information, including personal data, may be transferred to and maintained on computers located outside of your country or other governmental jurisdiction where the data protection laws may differ from those of your jurisdiction.

We will take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that your data is treated securely and in accordance with this Privacy Policy and no transfer of your personal data will take place to an organisation or a country unless there are adequate controls in place.

This includes using standard contractual clauses approved by the UK Information Commissioner's Office where appropriate.

We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements.

We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the 'Last Updated' date.

We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes.
