Ensuring the request for consent is presented in a manner which is clearly distinguishable from any other matters, is made in an intelligible and easily accessible form, and uses clear and plain language.

4.4.1 Data Processing

Lucy Williams née Scott Herbalist uses the Personal Data of its Contacts for the following broad purposes:

The general running and business administration of Lucy Williams née Scott Herbalist Entities.
To provide services to Lucy Williams née Scott Herbalist customers.

The use of a Contact’s information should always be considered from their perspective and whether the use will be within their expectations or if they are likely to object.

For example, it would clearly be within a Contact’s expectations that their details will be used by Lucy Williams née Scott Herbalist to respond to a Contact request for information about the products and services on offer. However, it will not be within their reasonable expectations that Lucy Williams née Scott Herbalist would then provide their details to Third Parties for marketing purposes.

Each Lucy Williams née Scott Herbalist Entity will Process Personal Data in accordance with all applicable laws and applicable contractual obligations. More specifically, Lucy Williams née Scott Herbalist will not Process Personal Data unless at least one of the following requirements are met:

The Data Subject has given Consent to the Processing of their Personal Data for one or more specific purposes.

Processing is necessary in order to protect the vital interests of the Data Subject or of another natural person.
Processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the Data Controller.
Processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by the Data Controller or by a Third Party (except where such interests are overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the Data Subject, in particular where the Data Subject is a child).

There are some circumstances in which Personal Data may be further processed for purposes that go beyond the original purpose for which the Personal Data was collected. When making a determination as to the compatibility of the new reason for Processing, guidance and approval must be obtained from the Office of Data Protection before any such Processing may commence.

In any circumstance where Consent has not been gained for the specific Processing in question, Lucy Williams née Scott Herbalist will address the following additional conditions to determine the fairness and transparency of any Processing beyond the original purpose for which the Personal Data was collected:

Any link between the purpose for which the Personal Data was collected and the reasons for intended further Processing.
The context in which the Personal Data has been collected, in particular regarding the relationship between Data Subject and the Data Controller.
The nature of the Personal Data, in particular whether Special Categories of Data are being Processed, or whether Personal Data related to criminal convictions and offences are being Processed.
The possible consequences of the intended further Processing for the Data Subject.
The existence of appropriate safeguards pertaining to further Processing, which may include Encryption, Anonymisation or Pseudonymisation.

4.4.2 Special Categories of Data

The Processing relates to Personal Data which has already been made public by the Data Subject.
The Processing is necessary for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims.
The Processing is specifically authorised or required by law.

4.4.3 Children’s Data

Children are unable to Consent to the Processing of Personal Data for information society services5. Consent must be sought from the person who holds parental responsibility over the child. However, it should be noted that where Processing is lawful under other grounds, Consent need not be obtained from the child or the holder of parental responsibility.

Should any Lucy Williams née Scott Herbalist Entity foresee a business need for obtaining parental consent for information society services offered directly to a child, guidance and approval must be obtained from the Office of Data Protection before any Processing of a child’s Personal Data may commence.

4.4.4 Data Quality

Each Lucy Williams née Scott Herbalist Entity will adopt all necessary measures to ensure that the Personal Data it collects and Processes is complete and accurate in the first instance, and is updated to reflect the current situation of the Data Subject.

Keeping Personal Data only for the period necessary to satisfy the permitted uses or applicable statutory retention period.

Any Lucy Williams née Scott Herbalist Entity wishing to carry out a digital marketing campaign without obtaining prior Consent from the Data Subject must first have it approved by the Office of Data Protection.

Where Personal Data Processing is approved for digital marketing purposes, the Data Subject must be informed at the point of first contact that they have the right to object, at any stage, to having their data Processed for such purposes. If the Data Subject puts forward an objection, digital marketing related Processing of their Personal Data must cease immediately and their details should be kept on a suppression list with a record of their opt-out decision, rather than being completely deleted.

It should be noted that where digital marketing is carried out in a ‘business to business’ context, there is no legal requirement to obtain an indication of Consent to carry out digital marketing to individuals provided that they are given the opportunity to opt-out.
