5. The bases on which we process information about you

UK Data Protection Law requires a legal basis for using personal data to be established  Our basis varies depending on the specific purpose for which we use personal data.  The legal bases we use to undertake processing of personal data include:

• Information we process because we have a contractual obligation with you

When you create an account on our Site, buy a product or service from us, or otherwise agree to our terms and conditions, a contract is formed between you and us.

In order to carry out our obligations under that contract we must process the information you give us. Some of this information may be personal data.

We may use it in order to:

i. verify your identity for security purposes

ii. sell products to you

iii. provide you with our services

iv. provide you with suggestions and advice on products, services and how to obtain the most from using our Site

We process this information on the basis there is a contract between us, or that you have requested we use the information before we enter into a legal contract.

We shall continue to process this information until the contract between us ends or is terminated by either party under the terms of the contract.

• Information we process with your consent

Through certain actions when otherwise there is no contractual relationship between us, such as when you browse our Site or ask us to provide you more information about our business, including our products and services, you provide your consent to us to process information that may be personal data.

Wherever possible, we aim to obtain your explicit consent to process this information, for example, by asking you to agree to our use of cookies.

If you have given us explicit permission to do so, we may from time to time pass your name and contact information to selected associates whom we consider may provide services or products you would find useful.

We continue to process your information on this basis until you withdraw your consent or it can be reasonably assumed that your consent no longer exists.

You may withdraw your consent at any time by instructing us at Support@1bike1world.com. However, if you do so, you may not be able to use our Site or our services further.

• Information we process for the purposes of our legitimate business interests and in the interest of customers

We may process information on the basis there is a legitimate interest, either to you or to us, of doing so.

Where we process your information on this basis, we do after having given careful consideration to:

i. whether the same objective could be achieved through other means

ii. whether processing (or not processing) might cause you harm

iii. whether you would expect us to process your data, and whether you would, in the round, consider it reasonable to do so

 

For example, we may process your data on this basis for the purposes of:

i. record-keeping for the proper and necessary administration of our business.

ii. responding to unsolicited communication from you to which we believe you would expect a response

iii. protecting and asserting the legal rights of any party

iv. insuring against or obtaining professional advice that is required to manage business risk

v. protecting your interests where we believe we have a duty to do so

• Information we process to comply with a legal obligation

Sometimes, we must process your information in order to comply with a statutory obligation.

For example, we may be required to give information to legal authorities if they so request or if they have the proper authorisation such as a search warrant or court order.

  • Request erasure of your personal data. This enables you to ask us to delete or remove personal data 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 data where you have successfully exercised your right to object to processing (see below), where we may have processed your information unlawfully or where we are required to erase your personal data to comply with local law. Note, however, that we may not always be able to comply with your request of erasure for specific legal reasons which will be notified to you, if applicable, at the time of your request.

You also have the right to object where we are processing your personal data for direct marketing purposes. In some cases, we may demonstrate that we have compelling legitimate grounds to process your information which override your rights and freedoms.

iii. Where you need us to hold the data even if we no longer require it as you need it to establish, exercise or defend legal claims.

iv. You have objected to our use of your data but we need to verify whether we have overriding legitimate grounds to use it.

  • Request the transfer of your personal data to you or to a third party. We will provide to you, or a third party you have chosen, your personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format. Note that this right only applies to automated information which you initially provided consent for us to use or where we used the information to perform a contract with you.
  • Withdraw consent at any time where we are relying on consent to process your personal data. However, this will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before you withdraw your consent.
