Privacy policy

Definitions and interpretation

In this privacy policy, the following definitions are used:

• Data — collectively all information that you submit to Spire Assist Limited via the website. This definition incorporates, where applicable, the definitions provided in UK data protection legislation, including the Data Protection Act and the UK GDPR.
• We / us — Spire Assist Limited.
• User / you — any third party that accesses the website and is not either (i) employed by Spire Assist Limited and acting in the course of their employment, or (ii) engaged as a consultant or otherwise providing services to Spire Assist Limited and accessing the website in connection with the provision of such services.
• Website — the website that you are currently using and any sub-domains of it, unless expressly excluded by their own terms and conditions.

Unless the context requires a different interpretation: the singular includes the plural and vice versa; references to a person include firms, companies, government entities, trusts and partnerships; "including" is understood to mean "including without limitation"; references to any statutory provision include any modification or amendment of it; and headings do not form part of this privacy policy.

Scope of this privacy policy

This privacy policy applies only to the actions of Spire Assist Limited and users with respect to this website. It does not extend to any websites that can be accessed from this website, including but not limited to any links we may provide to social media websites.

Data collected

We may collect the following data, which includes personal data, from you — in each case in accordance with this privacy policy:

• Name
• Contact information such as email addresses and telephone numbers
• IP address (automatically collected)

Forms on this website work by opening a pre-filled email in your own mail application — the information you type is sent to us by you, by email, rather than stored by the website itself.

Our use of cookies

Necessary cookies. We use necessary cookies and similar local storage to make our site work and enable core functionality such as security, network management and accessibility (for example, remembering that you have dismissed the cookie notice). You may disable these by changing your browser settings, but this may affect how the website functions.

Analytical cookies. We may choose to use analytical cookies to help us provide you with the best possible experience by collecting and reporting information on how the website is used. Such cookies collect information in a way that does not directly identify anyone.

Our use of data

For the purposes of UK data protection law, Spire Assist Limited is the "data controller".

Unless we are obliged or permitted by law to do so, and subject to any third-party disclosures specifically set out in this policy, your data will not be disclosed to third parties. This includes our affiliates and/or other companies within our group.

All personal data is stored securely in accordance with the principles of UK data protection legislation. Data may be used by us for the following reasons, in each case in accordance with this privacy policy:

• Internal record keeping
• Responding to enquiries, referrals and job applications you send us
• Transmission by email of materials that may be of interest to you, where you have agreed to this

Third-party websites and services

Spire Assist Limited may, from time to time, employ the services of other parties for dealing with certain processes necessary for the operation of the website (for example, embedded maps or fonts). The providers of such services may have access to certain personal data provided by users of this website.

Links to other websites

This website may, from time to time, provide links to other websites. We have no control over such websites and are not responsible for their content. This privacy policy does not extend to your use of such websites; you are advised to read the privacy policy or statement of other websites prior to using them.

Changes of business ownership and control

Spire Assist Limited may, from time to time, expand or reduce our business, and this may involve the sale and/or transfer of control of all or part of the company. Data provided by users will, where it is relevant to any part of our business so transferred, be transferred along with that part, and the new owner or newly controlling party will, under the terms of this privacy policy, be permitted to use the data for the purposes for which it was originally supplied to us. We may also disclose data to a prospective purchaser of our business or any part of it. In the above instances, we will take steps to ensure your privacy is protected.

Controlling use of your data

Wherever you are required to submit data, you will be given options to restrict our use of that data. This may include use of data for direct marketing purposes and sharing data with third parties.

Accessing your own data

You have the right to ask for a copy of any of your personal data held by Spire Assist Limited (where such data is held), and to ask for inaccurate data to be corrected or for your data to be deleted, in line with your rights under UK data protection law.

Security

Data security is of great importance to Spire Assist Limited, and to protect your data we have put in place suitable physical, electronic and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure data collected via this website.

We endeavour to do our best to protect your personal data. However, transmission of information over the internet is not entirely secure and is done at your own risk; we cannot ensure the security of your data transmitted to the website.

Transfers outside the UK and EEA

Data which we collect from you may be stored and processed in, and transferred to, countries outside of the UK and the European Economic Area (EEA) — for example, if our servers or one of our service providers are situated in such a country. Where this occurs, we will take steps to ensure that your privacy rights continue to be protected as outlined in this privacy policy.

General

You may not transfer any of your rights under this privacy policy to any other person. We may transfer our rights under this privacy policy where we reasonably believe your rights will not be affected.

If any court or competent authority finds that any provision of this privacy policy (or part of any provision) is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that provision or part-provision will, to the extent required, be deemed to be deleted, and the validity and enforceability of the other provisions will not be affected.

Unless otherwise agreed, no delay, act or omission by a party in exercising any right or remedy will be deemed a waiver of that, or any other, right or remedy.

This agreement will be governed by and interpreted according to the law of England and Wales. All disputes arising under it will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the English and Welsh courts.

Changes to this privacy policy

Spire Assist Limited reserves the right to change this privacy policy as we may deem necessary from time to time, or as may be required by law. Any changes will be immediately posted on the website, and you are deemed to have accepted the terms of the privacy policy on your first use of the website following the alterations.
