Necessary for the performance of contract
We will process your contact details, call recording details and information about you or any business you represent for the performance of the contract between you and the Tradesman. In particular, we rely on this legal ground to:

In certain circumstances, we also use your personal data only to the extent required in order to enable us to comply with our legal obligations including to detect, investigate and prevent fraud.
Legitimate business interests or those of a third party
If your interests, rights and freedoms are not overridden by our legitimate interests (which on balance, we consider to be true) then we may collect and use your data to:
- provide you with products and services that are as useful and beneficial to you or the business you represent as possible, including by personalising our contact with you (using automated decision-making and profiling techniques) and making sure we tell you about all the offers that are relevant to you request or enquiry;

In certain circumstances, we process your personal data after obtaining your consent to do so for the purposes of:

- conducting marketing research.
- Who we share personal information with and where they store it
We may provide your personal data to:
- our suppliers, services providers and subcontractors including other companies in our group, who perform certain business services for us and act as “processors” of your personal data;
- advertising networks that require the data to select and serve relevant adverts to you and others;
- analytics and search engine providers that assist us in the improvement and optimisation of our landing pages; and
- where applicable, to debt collection agencies for the purpose of collecting any monies due to us arising from a contract with you.
In addition, we may disclose your personal data:
- if we are under a duty to disclose or share your personal data in order to comply with any legal or compliance obligation, or in order to protect the rights, property or safety of our business, our customers or others. This includes, in specific cases, exchanging information with other organisations for the purposes of fraud protection; and
- to successors in title or replacement operators of all or part of our business.
We collaborate with third parties such as cloud hosting services, suppliers, and technology support located around the world to serve the needs of our business, workforce, and customers. The data that we collect from you may be transferred to, and stored at, processed at a destination outside the European Economic Area (“EEA”). The areas in which these recipients are located will vary from time to time, but may include the United States, and other countries where Get Work may, from time to time, use contractors. When we transfer personal information from the EEA to other countries in which applicable laws do not offer the same level of data privacy protection as in the UK, we take measures to provide an appropriate level of data protection. In other words, your rights and protections remain with your data. For example, we ensure that our suppliers and contractors comply with UK and EU data protection laws and use contractual clauses and other measures designed to ensure that the recipients of your personal information protect it.
- How we secure your personal information
We take data security seriously, and we use appropriate technologies and procedures to protect personal information.

- How long we keep your personal information for
We retain your personal data for no longer than is necessary for the purpose(s) for which it was provided. This time period will vary between different types of data.
When determining the relevant retention periods, we take into account the following factors among others:
- legal obligation(s) under applicable law to retain data for a certain period of time;
- statute of limitations under applicable law;
- potential or actual disputes; and
- guidelines issued by relevant data protection authorities.
Otherwise, we securely erase your personal data from our systems when it is no longer needed.
- Your Rights
You have the right to:
- Be informed about how we use your personal data and your rights. This is why we are providing you with the information in this Privacy Policy.
- Request to see the personal data we hold about you. This includes the right to obtain a confirmation as to whether or not we process any of your personal data;

- In certain situations you have the right to ask for processing of your personal data to be restricted because there is some disagreement about its accuracy or legitimate usage. We can still keep your data but may not use it further;
- Obtain and reuse your personal data in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format in certain circumstances.
- Request that we do not process your personal data for direct marketing and that we will keep your contact details to ensure that no further contact is made;
