European Appendix

This Appendix applies if you are based in the European Economic Area (the EEA) during your interactions with us.

1. Why we collect your data, and who we disclose it to

The legal basis or “grounds” for our use of your Personal Data are set out below, as required under EU DP Law (EU DP Law). In the table below, we have linked each purpose mentioned in Section 3 of our Privacy Policy below to the relevant legal ground/s.

 

2. Special categories of Personal Data

If we collect and handle sensitive Personal Data (for example medical and health data, ethnicity and race), we will typically ask you for your consent when collecting and handling this type of Personal Data, unless we are otherwise permitted to process such Personal Data under European data protection law or the laws of the EU member state in which you are based.

3. Legal grounds for use of Personal Data

The legal grounds for our use of Personal Data are as follows:

• Consent: where you have consented to our use of your Personal Data. You may withdraw your consent to the use of your Personal Data by contacting us as set out in Section 9 of the Privacy Policy.
• Contract performance: where we are required to collect and handle your Personal Data in order to provide you with the services that we have contractually agreed to provide to you, e.g. contact details of a customer (tenant) of one of our properties.
• Legal obligation: where we need to use your Personal Data to comply with our legal obligations.
• Vital interests: where we need to process your Personal Data in order to protect the vital interests of you or another natural person, e.g. where you require urgent assistance.
• Public interest: where we need to process your Personal Data in order to carry out a task that is in the public interest.
• Legitimate interests: where we have a legitimate interest in using your information. We will only rely on this legal ground if we consider that our interest in using your Personal Data for the relevant purpose is not outweighed by any interests that you may have, or any prejudice that you may suffer, from the relevant use of your Personal Data.

The legal grounds for our use of the sensitive categories of Personal Data are:

• Consent: where you have explicitly consented to our use of your Personal Data. You may withdraw your consent to the use of your Personal Data by contacting us as set out in Section 8 of the Privacy Policy.
• Vital interest: where we need to process your Personal Data in order to protect the vital interests of you or another natural person where you or the other person is physically or legally incapable of giving consent.

4. Our decision-making processes

In connection with our business, we will use your Personal Data to make various decisions about you and your eligibility to access our services, to prevent abusive use of our services, to ensure security of our systems, or to detect fraud.

5. Export outside the EEA

Your Personal Data may be accessed by employees or suppliers, transferred, and/or stored outside the EEA, including to countries which may have a lower level of data protection than under EU DP law.

We must comply with specific rules when we transfer Personal Data from inside the EEA to outside the EEA. When we do this, we will use appropriate safeguards to protect any Personal Data being transferred.

We will transfer your Personal Data subject to European Commission approved contractual terms that impose different data protection obligations directly on the recipient, or as otherwise permitted under EU DP Law.

Please contact us as set out in Section 9 of the Privacy Policy if you would like to see a copy of the specific safeguards we apply to the export of your Personal Data.

6. Retention period

Our retention periods for Personal Data are based on business needs and legal requirements. We will retain your Personal Data for as long as is necessary for the processing purpose(s) for which it was collected and any other permitted linked purpose. For example, we may retain: (i) certain transaction details  and correspondence until the time limit for claims arising from the transaction with us has expired (which is typically between 6 to 10 years after the relevant transaction occurred, and in some cases much less than this); or (ii) certain data to comply with regulatory requirements regarding the retention of such data. Where Personal Data is no longer needed, we either irreversibly anonymise the data (in which case we may further retain and use the anonymised data) or securely destroy the data.

7. Your rights

In addition to Section 9 of the Privacy Policy, in certain circumstances, you may have the rights under EU DP Law to ask us to:

• provide you with further details on how we use and process your Personal Data;
• delete Personal Data we no longer have grounds to process; and
• restrict how we process your Personal Data whilst we consider an inquiry you have raised.

Please note that we will not charge a fee when we deal with your requests in the exercise of the above rights.

In addition, under certain conditions, you have the right to:

• where processing is based on consent, withdraw the consent; and
• object to any processing of Personal Data that we process on the “legitimate interests” or “public interests” grounds, unless our reasons for the underlying processing outweighs your interests, rights and freedoms.
• object to direct marketing (including any profiling for such purposes) at any time.

You may exercise these rights by contacting us at the contact details in Section 9 of the Privacy Policy. Please note that we will not charge a fee when we deal with your requests in the exercise of these rights.

These rights are subject to certain exemptions to safeguard the public interest (e.g. the prevention or detection of crime) and our interests (e.g. the maintenance of legal privilege). We will aim to respond to requests within 30 days.
