International transfers

Personal data controlled by P1vital and collected in the UK may be disclosed/transferred outside of the UK subject to UK ‘adequacy regulations’ in relation to the country or territory where the receiver is located (i.e. a decision that a particular non-UK country’s laws provide an adequate level of protection for personal data) or subject to ‘appropriate safeguards’ being put in place such as a legally binding and enforceable instrument, UK Binding Corporate Rules, Standard Contractual Clauses etc., and subject having unambiguously consented to the disclosure/transfer.

Disclosure of your personal data

Use of data processors by P1vital - Data processors are third parties who provide elements of our services for us. We have contracts, terms and conditions and / or data processing agreements in place with our data processors. This means that they cannot do anything with your personal information unless we have instructed them to do it. They will not share your personal information with any organisation apart from us without our consent and only then on the basis that we are satisfied that the sub-processors they use are subject to equivalent obligations relating to the security of your data and subject to a UK DPA and EU GDPR compliant Data Processing Agreement. They will hold it securely and retain it for the period we instruct.

Data security

We have put in place appropriate security measures to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used or accessed in an unauthorised way, altered or disclosed. In addition, we limit access to your personal data to those employees, agents, contractors and other third parties who have a business need to know.
