Privacy Policy

Drawing and Talking Ltd

Introduction:

Changes to UK data privacy law came into effect on 25 May 2018 under the GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) which will give individuals additional right about the way their personal information is collected and used. At Drawing and Talking Limited, we recognise the importance of the personal information we receive from our clients and we take seriously our responsibility to use it appropriately.

We collect your personal information from the very start of our interactions with you. We process this personal information primarily to fulfil our contractual services to you. By processing, we mean obtaining, recording, holding and using your data. You may also provide us with personal information about other people, including employees. In these instances, we ask that you have their authority to provide this information to us.

We do not share personal information with third parties except as necessary to carry out our business (such as sharing your credit card details securely with our credit card processor) or as required by law or other legal processes. We will never sell your personal information.

We like to keep you informed of news, offers and our latest training. Under data protection law, it is considered a legitimate business interest for us to use our customers’ details for direct marketing.

To opt in to our updates, you can choose this option when booking a course or by providing us with consent on completion of an evaluation form following your course. However, we understand that your preferences may change and not everybody wants to receive marketing, so if you do not wish to receive any further emails from us please send us an email to info@drawingandtalking.com and we will remove you from our records immediately.
