2. How thrive obtains the data:

The personal data (first and last name and email address) that we have is either provided to us by you or your employer.

 

3. Why do we hold this personal information?

When working with our clients, thrive can act in two difference capacities as Data Controller and/or Data Processer

  • thrive acts as a Data Controller where we collect data from data subjects. An example of this is the personal information we collect from people attending training courses, workshops or individual coaching sessions. In this instance, you expressly share your contact information with us so that we can continue to share information with you (for example, thrive’s quarterly newsletter).
  • thrive acts as a Data Processor where we collect and process data on behalf of our customer/client, the data controller. An example of this is when a client asks us to administer psychometric tests.

 

4. How do we use your personal information:

The information we hold is used to deliver contracted services and products for the stated purpose and for no longer than necessary. thrive has signed contracts with companies (for example, sub-processors) where we share your contact data with them (so that psychometric questionnaires may be sent to you). These contracts ensure that the level of protection they provide is sufficient to meet the requirements of the EU directive as it relates to Data Protection.

 

5. What we don’t do with your personal information:

thrive does not use your data for any purposes other than those agreed in our contract, for example:

  • We do not sell your data to any third party
  • thrive does not transfer your data to any parties other than sub-contractors/sub-processors agreed in our contract and necessary for us to carry out our contracted service. (thrive has signed contracts with companies where we have had to share your contact data with (i.e. the sub-processors) and these contracts ensure that the level of protection they provide is sufficient to meet the requirements of the EU directive as it relates to Data Protection).

 

 

6. How long do we keep your personal data?

  • Email addresses: the information we use to communicate with you will be kept until you notify us that you no longer wish to receive information from us or you want us to delete your personal data.
  • Personal information: (first, last name & email address): In the case of data required to dispatch psychometric questionnaires, we will retain this information in line with the client’s requirements unless the data controller from that client has communicated otherwise.
  • Psychometric Reports: thrive will retain these reports for a period of 2 years in a safely encrypted location unless the data controller communicates otherwise.

 

7. What happens when you sign up for thrive’s newsletter

  • When you electronically sign up to receive our newsletter, we ask for your name and your email address
  • When you sign up to receive our newsletter in person, we ask for your name, your email address and your signature which serves as consent to use your contact information to email you our newsletter.

You can withdraw your consent at any time and we will stop sending you the newsletter.

 

8. Your rights as a data subject

By law, you can ask us what information we hold about you and you can ask us to correct it if it is inaccurate.

If we are processing your personal data for reasons of consent or legitimate interest, you can request that your data be erased.
