COLLECTION & PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA

We collect personal data from you for one or more of the following purposes:

• To provide you with information that you have requested or that we think may be relevant to a subject in which you have demonstrated an interest.
• To initiate and complete commercial transactions with you, or the entity that you represent, for the purchase of products and/or services.
• To fulfil a contract that we have entered into with you or with the entity that you represent. In these circumstances it may be your entity, rather than yourself, that has provided us with your personal data.
• To manage any communication between you and us.

All personal data collected and processed by Converged is processed in the United Kingdom i.e. within the European Economic Area.

All personal data processed within Converged is done so via our CRM system ConnectWise. This information is used to generate invoices, quotes, purchase orders and to contact you regarding contracts between your organisation and Converged.

This information is securely managed, giving access to authorised personnel using a username and password combination.

We do not pass your details to third party organisations unless legally obligated.

YOUR RIGHTS AS A DATA SUBJECT

As a data subject whose personal information we hold, you have certain rights. If you wish to exercise any of these rights, please email us using the details shown in the Contact Us section below. To process your request, we will ask you to provide two valid forms of identification for verification purposes.

Your rights are as follows:

• The right to be informed

As a data controller, we are obliged to provide clear and transparent information about our data processing activities. This is provided by this privacy policy and any related communications we may send you.

• The right of access

You may request a copy of the personal data we hold about you free of charge. Once we have verified your identity and, if relevant, the authority of any third-party requestor, we will provide access to the personal data we hold about you as well as the following information:

a) The purposes of the processing
b) The categories of personal data concerned
c) The recipients to whom the personal data has been disclosed
d) The retention period or envisioned retention period for that personal data
e) When personal data has been collected from a third party, the source of the personal data

If there are exceptional circumstances that mean we can refuse to provide the information, we will explain them. If requests are frivolous or vexatious, we reserve the right to refuse them. If answering requests is likely to require additional time or occasions unreasonable expense (which you may have to meet), we will inform you.

• The right to rectification

When you believe we hold inaccurate or incomplete personal information about you, you may exercise your right to correct or complete this data. This may be used with the right to restrict processing to make sure that incorrect/incomplete information is not processed until it is corrected.

• The right to erasure (the ‘right to be forgotten’)

Where no overriding legal basis or legitimate reason continues to exist for processing personal data, you may request that we delete the personal data. This includes personal data that may have been unlawfully processed. We will take all reasonable steps to ensure erasure.

You may ask us to stop processing your personal data. We will still hold the data, but will not process it any further. This right is an alternative to the right to erasure. If one of the following conditions applies you may exercise the right to restrict processing:

b) Processing of the personal data is unlawful.
c) We no longer need the personal data for processing, but the personal data is required for part of a legal process.
d) The right to object has been exercised and processing is restricted pending a decision on the status of the processing.

• The right to data portability

You may request your set of personal data be transferred to another controller or processor, provided in a commonly used and machine-
readable format. This right is only available if the original processing was on the basis of consent, the processing is by automated means and if the processing is based on the fulfilment of a contractual obligation.

• The right to object

You have the right to object to our processing of your data where:

o Processing is based on legitimate interest;
o Processing is for the purpose of direct marketing;
o Processing is for the purposes of scientific or historic research; or
