1. What information we collect about you

We collect personal information about you when you access our website, open an account with us, contact us, purchase products or services, respond to customer surveys, register for marketing communications or participate in competitions.

We collect this personal information from you either directly, such as when you purchase products or services, or indirectly, such as your browsing activity while on our website (see ‘Cookies’ below). If you intend to provide us with personal information about other people, you must make sure that they have seen a copy of this privacy notice and are comfortable with you giving us their information.

We also collect personal information about you from other sources as follows:

  • Technical data (for example analytics or search information providers)
  • Contact, financial and transaction data (for example technical, payment
    and delivery services)
  • Identity and contact data (for example data brokers or public sources)

The personal information we collect about you depends on the activities we are carrying out, and can include:

  • Your name, work address and contact details
  • Company Bank details
  • Details of any feedback you give us by phone, email or post
  • Information about the products and services we provide to you

We use this personal information to:

  • Create and manage your account with us
  • Verify your identity
  • Provide products and services to you
  • Customise our website and its content to your preferences
  • Improve our services

 

Special Category Data:

We take client information from health professionals (such as Occupational Therapists) to ensure our equipment is appropriate for clients before carrying out product trials or assessments and supplying equipment. Information taken can include the client’s condition, weight and height.

 

2. Our legal basis for processing personal information

We process your personal information for a number of legitimate interests, including managing our relationship with you, marketing our products, and to help us improve our services and products. The reasons are listed as follows:

1. To comply with our contractual obligations (i.e. provide the service, collect payment)
2. To comply with our legal obligations (including tax and revenue record keeping, health & safety compliance)
3. In the event of any legal claims arising out of the services we provide
4. Marketing activities that are in the interests of contacts/clients
5. We have obtained active consent to send marketing materials to consumer contacts and clients
6. To ensure the products that we are supplying are suitable for the end user

 

3. How we use the information collected about you

We will use the information you provide in order to provide the services you have requested while ensuring personal data will be processed in a manner that ensures its security. We keep your personal information for various periods of time according to the following:

  • How long it is reasonable to keep records to meet our obligations to you and by law
  • Length of times on warranty
  • Length of time advised by law or recommendations by professional bodies
  • The product or service purchased from us, and how long you have been a customer with us

We may seek your consent to keep information relating to a project we have completed on your behalf for a longer period. This would be with the intention of using the information to demonstrate our competence and quality of our work to other interested parties.

We may use images of a project we have completed on your behalf for promotional purposes. If images feature people, we may contact you to seek consent from the people who feature in the images.

 

4. Transfer of your information out of the EEA

We deal with global organisations so personal information may be transferred to countries outside the European Economic Area (EEA) for the purposes set out in this privacy notice.

Not all countries outside the EEA have data protection laws that are similar to those in the EEA and if so, the European Commission may not consider those countries as providing an adequate level of data protection.

We take steps to make sure that, when we transfer your personal information to another country, appropriate protection is in place, in line with data protection laws. Often, this protection is set out under a contract with the organisation who receives that information.

 

5. Marketing

We may reach out to you via your business email address, business phone number or company postal address, if these details are publicly available. If you would like to opt out of these communications, please contact us at [email protected].
