If you would like more information about international transfers, please contact us at jo@justmyway.co.uk.

7. DATA SECURITY
We have implemented appropriate security measures to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used, accessed, altered, or disclosed without authorisation.

We limit access to your personal data to employees, contractors, and service providers who have a business need to know. They will only process your data on our instructions and are subject to confidentiality obligations.

We have procedures in place to deal with any suspected data breach and will notify you and the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) if we are legally required to do so.

8. DATA RETENTION
We will only keep your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.

Typical retention periods:
  • Customer data: We keep transaction records for 6 years after your last purchase to comply with UK tax law
  • Marketing data: We keep your data while you remain subscribed to our communications or until you ask us to delete it
  • Communication data: We typically keep correspondence for 3 years unless there is an ongoing business relationship or legal reason to keep it longer
  • Technical data: Analytics data is typically retained for 26 months (or as determined by our analytics provider's policies)

When deciding retention periods, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure, and our legal obligations.

In some circumstances, we may anonymise your personal data so it can no longer be associated with you, in which case we may use it without further notice to you.

9. YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS
Under UK data protection law, you have the following rights:
  • Right to access - You can request a copy of your personal data
  • Right to correction - You can ask us to correct inaccurate or incomplete data

Exercising Your Rights
To exercise any of these rights, please email us at jo@justmyway.co.uk.
You will not have to pay a fee to access your personal data (or to exercise any other rights). However, we may charge a reasonable fee or refuse to comply if your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive, or excessive.

We may need to request specific information from you to confirm your identity and ensure your right to access your data (or exercise other rights). This is a security measure to ensure personal data is not disclosed to anyone without the right to receive it.

We aim to respond to all legitimate requests within one month. If your request is particularly complex or you have made multiple requests, it may take us longer (up to three months). We will notify you if this is the case.
