                1. Introduction

                1.1    We are committed to safeguarding the privacy of our website visitors, service users and customer personnel.

                1.2    This policy applies where we are acting as a data controller with respect to the personal data of such persons; in other words, where we determine the purposes and means of the processing of that personal data.

                1.3    In this policy, "we", "us" and "our" refer to Business Data Quality Limited. For more information about us, see Section 16.

                2. The personal data that we collect

                2.1    In this Section 2 we have set out the general categories of personal data that we process and, in the case of personal data that we did not obtain directly from you, information about the source and specific categories of that data.

                Research and analysis

                We may process analytics data and/or accounting data for the purposes of researching and analysing the use of our website and services, as well as researching and analysing other interactions with our business.

                Legal claims

                We may process your personal data where necessary for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims, whether in court proceedings or in an administrative or out-of-court procedure.

                The legal basis for this processing is our legitimate interests, namely the protection and assertion of our legal rights, your legal rights and the legal rights of others.

                Legal compliance and vital interests

                We may also process your personal data where such processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which we are subject or in order to protect your vital interests or the vital interests of another natural person.

                The legal basis here is compliance with a legal obligation to which we are subject or in order to protect your vital interests or the vital interests of another natural person.
