JSC Consultant Solutions Ltd. is a UK-domiciled organisation whose primary offices are in the UK.
The majority of our websites and web applications are hosted in the EU and are accessed only by our EU-based staff.
Our customer relationship management, marketing and accounting systems are either EU-based or hosted by companies participating in the EU-US Privacy Shield Framework.
We use a wide range of CSPs (Cloud service providers) as part of our processing environment. Unless we specifically state otherwise, we are, in respect of all these CSPs, the data controller.
Unless we specifically state otherwise, all the CSPs that we use utilise EU-located processing facilities.
We resell products supplied by organisations outside the EU. This may mean that our resale partner will have access to information about data subjects who purchase their products.
We operate a data retention policy in respect of all data, whether paper-based or digital, and those aspects of it that relate to personal data are contained in the table above.
As a data subject whose personal information we hold, you have certain rights. If you wish to exercise any of these rights, please email privacy@jscconsultant.co.uk. To process your request, we will ask you to provide two valid forms of identification for verification purposes. Your rights are as follows:
The right to be informed
As a data controller, we are obliged to provide clear and transparent information about our data processing activities. This is provided by this privacy policy and any related communications we may send you.
The right of access
You may request a copy of the personal data we hold about you free of charge. Once we have verified your identity and, if relevant, the authority of any third-party requestor, we will provide access to the personal data we hold about you as well as the following information:
a) The purposes of the processing
b) The categories of personal data concerned
c) The recipients to whom the personal data has been disclosed
d) The retention period or envisioned retention period for that personal data
e) When personal data has been collected from a third party, the source of the personal data
If there are exceptional circumstances that mean we can refuse to provide the information, we will explain them. If requests are frivolous or vexatious, we reserve the right to refuse them. If answering requests is likely to require additional time or occasions unreasonable expense (which you may have to meet), we will inform you.
The right to rectification
When you believe we hold inaccurate or incomplete personal information about you, you may exercise your right to correct or complete this data. This may be used with the right to restrict processing to make sure that incorrect/incomplete information is not processed until it is corrected.
The right to erasure (the ‘right to be forgotten’)
Where no overriding legal basis or legitimate reason continues to exist for processing personal data, you may request that we delete the personal data. This includes personal data that may have been unlawfully processed. We will take all reasonable steps to ensure erasure.
The right to restrict processing
You may ask us to stop processing your personal data. We will still hold the data, but will not process it any further. This right is an alternative to the right to erasure. If one of the following conditions applies you may exercise the right to restrict processing:
a) The accuracy of the personal data is contested.
b) Processing of the personal data is unlawful.
c) We no longer need the personal data for processing but the personal data is required for part of a legal process.
d) The right to object has been exercised and processing is restricted pending a decision on the status of the processing.
The right to data portability
You may request your set of personal data be transferred to another controller or processor, provided in a commonly used and machine-readable format.

The right to object
