How we use information we hold about you

Where we are acting as a data controller:

• We may process your personal data for purposes necessary for the performance of our contract with you and to comply with our legal obligations.
• We may process your personal data for the purposes of our own legitimate interests provided that those interests do not override any of your own interests, rights and freedoms which require the protection of personal data. This includes processing for marketing, business development, statistical and management purposes.
• We may process your personal data for certain additional purposes with your consent, and in these limited circumstances where your consent is required for the processing of your personal data then you have the right to withdraw your consent to processing for such specific purposes.

Note that we may process your personal data for more than one lawful ground depending on the specific purpose for which we are using your data.

Where we are acting as a data processor:

• Your employer (or other similar organisation) is responsible for providing us with instructions as to which types of personal data we are permitted to process; and
• The ground(s) upon which your employer (or other similar organisation) is entitled to process your personal data is determined by them not us (and may vary from organisation to organisation); and
• We process that personal data in accordance with their instructions and for the purposes of enabling us to perform our obligations under our contract with them (i.e. for the purposes of our own legitimate interests as a provider of products and services to your employer (or other similar organisation)) and to comply with our legal obligations.

Situations in which we will use your personal information

We may use your information in order to:

• carry out our obligations arising from any agreements entered into between you OR your employer and us (for example, for the provision of our products and services);
• provide you with information related to products or services that you request from us or which we feel may interest you, provided you have consented to be contacted for such purposes;
• seek your thoughts and opinions on the services we provide; and
• notify you about any changes to our products or services.

In some circumstances we may anonymise the personal data so that it can no longer be associated with you, in which case we may use such information without further notice to you.

If you refuse to provide us with certain information when requested, we may not be able to perform the contract we have entered into with you. Alternatively, we may be unable to comply with our legal or regulatory obligations.

We may also process your personal information without your knowledge or consent, in accordance with this policy, where we are legally required or permitted to do so.

Data Retention

Where we are acting as a data controller, we will only retain your personal data for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it is collected. Where we are acting as a data processor, we will retain your personal data for the period agreed by your employer (or other similar organisation) in our contract with them.

If we are responsible for assessing what retention period is appropriate for your personal data, we take into consideration:

• the purposes for which we originally collected the personal data;
• the lawful grounds on which we based our processing;
• the types of personal data we have collected;
• the amount and categories of your personal data; and
• whether the purpose of the processing could reasonably be fulfilled by other means.

Change of purpose

Where we are acting as a data controller and we need to use your personal data for another reason, other than for the purpose for which we collected it, we will only use your personal information where that reason is compatible with the original purpose.

Should it be necessary to use your personal data for a new purpose, we will notify you and communicate the legal basis which allows us to do so before starting any new processing.

Data sharing

Generally

We do not share your information with third parties, save as set out below.

Our group

We may disclose your personal information to any member of our group, which means our subsidiaries, our ultimate holding company and its subsidiaries, as defined in section 1159 of the Companies Act 2006.

Sharing with your employer (or other similar organisation)

Where we are a data processor and you are using our products and services in connection with a contract that we have with your employer (or other similar organisation) we will share your personal data with that employer (or other similar organisation) and vice versa.

What about other third parties?

We may share your personal information with other third parties, for example in order to enable the processing of payments for any of our products or services or where we subcontract any of our services to another data processor or in the context of the possible sale or restructuring of the business. We may also need to share your personal information with a regulator or to otherwise comply with the law.

Transferring information outside the EU

We will not transfer the personal information we collect about you outside of the EU without ensuring appropriate safeguards are put in place.

Data security

We have put in place commercially reasonable and appropriate security measures to prevent your personal information from being accidentally lost, used or accessed in an unauthorised way, altered or disclosed. In addition, we limit access to your personal information to those employees, agents, contractors and other third parties who have a business need to know. They will only process your personal information on our instructions and they are subject to a duty of confidentiality.

We have put in place procedures to deal with any suspected data security breach and where we are acting as a data controller we will notify you and any applicable regulator of a suspected breach where we are legally required to do so. Where there is a suspected data security breach but we are acting as a data processor and not a data controller, the contract between us and your employer (or other similar organisation) will govern what each of us is required to do, in those circumstances.

Right of access, correction, erasure, and restriction

Your duty to inform us of changes

It is important that the personal information we hold about you is accurate and current. Should your personal information change, please notify us, using the contact details below (or, where applicable, notify your employer or the entity that has engaged you) of any changes of which we/they need to be made aware.

Your rights in connection with personal information

Under certain circumstances, by law you have the right to:

• Request access to your personal information. This enables you to receive details of the personal information we hold about you and to check that we are processing it lawfully.
• Request correction of the personal information that we hold about you.
• Request erasure of your personal information. This enables you to ask us to delete or remove personal information where there is no good reason for us continuing to process it. You also have the right to ask us to delete or remove your personal information where you have exercised your right to object to processing (see below).
• Object to processing of your personal information where we are relying on a legitimate interest (or those of a third party) and there is something about your particular situation which makes you want to object to processing on this ground. You also have the right to object where we are processing your personal information for direct marketing purposes.
• Request the restriction of processing of your personal information. This enables you to ask us to suspend the processing of personal information about you, for example if you want us to establish its accuracy or the reason for processing it.
• Request the transfer of your personal information to another party.

If you want to exercise any of the above rights, please email veterinarydataprotection@agiliosoftware.com or, (where applicable) please contact your employer (or other similar organisation) (and please note that, where we are acting as a data processor, we will always notify your employer (or other similar organisation) of your request and we will pass on the details of the request, to them).

You will not have to pay a fee to access your personal information (or to exercise any of the other rights). However, we may charge a reasonable fee if your request for access is clearly unfounded or excessive. Alternatively, we may refuse to comply with the request in such circumstances.

We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access the information (or to exercise any of your other rights). This is another appropriate security measure to ensure that personal information is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it.

Right to withdraw consent

In the limited circumstances where you may have provided your consent to the collection, processing and transfer of your personal information for a specific purpose (for example, in relation to direct marketing that you have indicated you would like to receive from us), you have the right to withdraw your consent for that specific processing at any time. To withdraw your consent, please email veterinarydataprotection@agiliosoftware.com.

Once we have received notification that you have withdrawn your consent, we will no longer process your information for the purpose or purposes you originally agreed to, unless we have another legitimate basis for doing so in law.

Changes to this policy

Any changes we may make to our privacy policy in the future will be notified on our website (https://agiliosoftware.com).
