Note that we may perform data profiling based on the data we collect from you for statistical and marketing analysis purposes.

We will only process your personal data where we have a legal basis to do so. The legal basis will depend on the reasons we have collected and need to use your personal data for.

We may also process your personal data for one or more of the following:

To comply with a legal obligation

You have consented to us using your personal data (e.g. for marketing related uses);

To protect your vital interests or those of another person (e.g. in case of a medical emergency);

It is in our legitimate interests in operating as a motorhome dealership and workshop (e.g. for administrative purposes).

We do not intentionally retain data from children under the age of 16.  Only children aged 16 or over can provide their own consent.

We will not retain your data for longer than is necessary to fulfil the purpose it is being processed for. To determine the appropriate retention period, we consider the amount, nature and sensitivity of the personal data, the purposes for which we process it and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means.

We must also consider periods for which we might need to retain personal data in order to meet our legal or to deal with complaints, queries and to protect our legal rights in the event of a claim being made.

When we no longer need your personal data, we will securely delete or destroy it. We will also consider if and how we can minimise over time the personal data that we use, and if we can anonymise your personal data so that it can no longer be associated with you or identify you, in which case we may use that information without further notice to you.

The GDPR provides the following rights for individuals:

  1. The right to be informed as above
  2. The right of access
  3. The right to rectification
  4. The right to erasure
  5. The right to restrict processing
  6. The right to data portability
  7. The right to object
  8. Rights in relation to automated decision making and profiling.

The right of access – Data subject access requests (SARs)

What information is an individual entitled to under the GDPR?

Under the GDPR, individuals will have the right to obtain:

  • confirmation that their data is being processed;
  • access to their personal data; and
  • other supplementary information

What is the purpose of the right of access under GDPR?

The GDPR clarifies that the reason for allowing individuals to access their personal data is so that they are aware of and can verify the lawfulness of the processing.

Can we charge a fee for dealing with a subject access request?

We will provide a copy of the information free of charge (previously £10). However, we may charge a ‘reasonable fee’ when a request is manifestly unfounded or excessive, particularly if it is repetitive. JC Leisure may also charge a reasonable fee to comply with requests for further copies of the same information. The fee must be based on the administrative cost of providing the information.

How long do we have to comply for?

Information must be provided without delay and at the latest within one month of receipt. We will be able to extend the period of compliance by a further two months where requests are complex or numerous. If this is the case, we will inform the individual within one month of the receipt of the request and explain why the extension is necessary.

What if the request is manifestly unfounded or excessive?

Where requests are manifestly unfounded or excessive, because they are repetitive, we can:

  • charge a reasonable fee considering the administrative costs of providing the information; or
  • refuse to respond.

Where we refuse to respond to a request, we must explain why to the individual, informing them of their right to complain to the supervisory authority and to a judicial remedy without undue delay and at the latest within one month.

How should the information be provided?

We must verify the identity of the person making the request, using ‘reasonable means’. If the request is made electronically, we should provide the information in a commonly used electronic format. The GDPR includes a best practice recommendation that, where possible, organisations should be able to provide remote access to a secure self-service system which would provide the individual with direct access to his or her information. This will not be appropriate for all organisations, but there are some sectors where this may work well.

The right to obtain a copy of information or to access personal data through a remotely accessed secure system should not adversely affect the rights and freedoms of others.

The right to rectification

  • The GDPR includes a right for individuals to have inaccurate personal data rectified, or completed if it is incomplete.
  • An individual can make a request for rectification verbally or in writing.
  • We have one calendar month to respond to a request.
  • In certain circumstances we can refuse a request for rectification.
  • This right is closely linked to the controller’s obligations under the accuracy principle of the GDPR.

The right to erasure

  • The GDPR introduces a right for individuals to have personal data erased.
  • The right to erasure is also known as ‘the right to be forgotten’.
  • Individuals can make a request for erasure verbally or in writing.
  • You have one month to respond to a request.
  • The right is not absolute and only applies in certain circumstances.
  • This right is not the only way in which the GDPR places an obligation on you to consider whether to delete personal data.

The right to restrict processing

  • Individuals have the right to request the restriction or suppression of their personal data.
  • This is not an absolute right and only applies in certain circumstances.
  • When processing is restricted we are permitted to store the personal data, but not use it.
  • An individual can make a request for restriction verbally or in writing.
  • We have one calendar month to respond to a request.
  • This right has close links to the right to rectification and the right to object

Right to object

Individuals have the right to object to:

  • processing based on legitimate interests or the performance of a task in the public interest/exercise of official authority (including profiling);
  • direct marketing (including profiling); and
  • processing for purposes of scientific/historical research and statistics.
