What personal data we collect and how and why we collect it

Personal information means information that by itself identifies an individual (such as name, address or email address) as well as information that can be combined to identify an individual. 3TL collects and stores personal information including title, name, address, telephone number, email address, bank details and date of birth. This information is collected in a number of ways:

  • When you provide it directly to us
  • When you provide permission to other organisations to share the information with us (including Facebook, Twitter and Linkedin)
  • When we collect it as you use our website or apps
  • From publicly available sources

3TL uses personal information for responding to and processing inquiries, orders and service requests or generally for any other purpose related to the original purpose for which the personal information was collected. 3TL also may use personal information for supporting your relationship with 3TL by designing services that are suitable to your needs, general service support and updates, marketing, alerting you to new Product offerings as they become available, continuing existing service and support, and other similar purposes. This Information may also be used to provide you with notices about your purchases, your use of a service, and to carry out 3TL’s obligations and enforce our rights arising from any contracts entered into between you and us, including for billing and collection.

 

Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.

An anonymised string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

We have a number of lawful reasons that mean we can process your personal information, as follows:

Consent

Processing of your personal information is permitted if we have received your opt-in consent, for example via our contact form(s).

Legitimate Interests

Broadly speaking this means we can process your personal information if we have a genuine and legitimate reason, and we are not harming any of your rights and interests.

This means we can process your personal information if it is necessary for the entry into, or performance of, a contract you have in place with us, or in order to take steps at your request, prior to the entry into a contract with us.

 

Who we share your data with

We share certain data with third party service providers whose tools or services we use for invoicing, support services and management, CRM, security, accounting, authentication, reporting, training and to run and improve our business. We make sure any third parties with whom we share personal data will use the data only for the purpose of providing their services to us, and in a manner consistent with our privacy practices.

 

How long we retain your data

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

For users that register on our website, we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

We retain your personal information for as long as is necessary to provide the services to you and others, and to comply with our legal obligations. If you no longer want us to use your personal information or to provide you with the 3TL services, you can request that we erase your personal information and close your 3TL account. Please note that if you request the erasure of your personal information we will retain information from deleted accounts as necessary for our legitimate business interests, to comply with the law, prevent fraud, collect fees, resolve disputes, troubleshoot problems, assist with investigations, enforce the terms of service and take other actions permitted by law. The information we retain will be handled in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
