More detail

The General Data Protection Regulation 2016 ('GDPR') came into full effect on 25 May 2018. Its purpose is to protect the "rights and freedoms" of natural persons (i.e. living individuals) and to ensure that personal data is not processed without their knowledge and, wherever possible, that it is processed with their consent.

Here at Carers Card UK, we are absolutely committed to your customer's privacy. We care deeply about privacy on a very personal level and we handle your customer's information with the same care that we take for ourselves, our family and our friends.

We acknowledge that the Carers Card UK website and its services will constantly evolve and new features will be added. However, our privacy principles will remain unchanged. We will always adhere to any laws that govern our user's rights when it comes to their personal information.

Therefore, we are fully committed to compliance with all relevant EU and Member State laws in respect of the personal data of individuals whose information we collect and process in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

To make good on that promise, we continually comply with applicable data protection and privacy laws. Most importantly:

• We do not publish your customer's email addresses on the website
• You have complete control over any emails that Carers Card UK sends out to your customers
• We do not share your customer's details with any other company for marketing purposes

As a result of our own assessment we are confident that our systems and operations are fully compliant with current Data Protection Act legislation and that we are already compliant with the GDPR. We also have all required policies, processes and procedures in place.

Our Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use and share it, and the choices you customers have, including how they access the information we have about them, erasing their information and deleting their accounts.
