For example, where we use a Third Party to produce our newsletter that third party may need your contact information.

Use of legitimate interest as a right to process your information
Under the directive, there are various reasons why we may process your information. One of the most commonly used is where we have a “legitimate interest” to process such information. “Legitimate interest” can cover a wide range of circumstances, and consequently, before we rely on it, we will ensure that our intended use matches the following three-part test as specified in the directive:
Purpose test – Whilst this seems simple enough, we will ensure that there is always a reason to process your information.
Necessity test – We will only process your information when this is necessary to meet the reason identified in the purpose test.
Balancing test – We will not process in the event that your personal rights or reasonable expectations are more important than our reason. For example, you have a reasonable expectation that we will not share your information with any third party. Consequently, your information will only be shared when you would expect us to and/or with your consent. You would expect us to use a case management system to track an inquiry to ensure we provide you with a service, so we may do this. However, you would not expect us to pass your information to a third-party marketing team, so we will not do this.
It is important to note that you do have rights that may affect our ability to rely upon “legitimate interest” to process your information. These are listed in the “Your Rights” section below.
Under the terms of the Directive, we will only retain information for as long as is necessary to allow us to carry out the matters listed in the information usage section.
The exact time period of retention will vary dependant on usage. For example, should you request a call back, then we will only keep your information to allow us to make contact with you. Should it be clear that no further contact is required, then we will delete all personal information held.
However, there may be occurrences when information is held for a longer period of time, such as if you become a client.
It is important to note that you do have rights that may affect our ability to retain your information. These are listed in the “Your Rights” section below.
Your rights
Under the Directive, you have a number of rights that you may enforce at any time. Such rights and how they apply in respect of this privacy notice are as follows:
You have the right to be informed – This privacy notice confirms how we collect and use data.
You have the right of access – If you wish to know what data we hold on you, then you may make a request using the contact details above.
You have the right of rectification – You can contact us to request that we rectify any information we hold on you should you believe that such personal data is inaccurate. Please note that we have the right to consider and respond to such a request; this includes refusing to process a request if we deem there to be grounds to do so.
You have the right of erasure – You can contact us to request that we erase some or all the information we hold. Please note that we have the right to consider and respond to such a request; this includes refusing to process a request if we deem there to be grounds to do so.
You have the right to restrict our use of your information – You can contact us to request that we do not process your information either in full or in part. Please note that this is not the same as requesting that we delete your information.
You have the right to data portability – In limited circumstances, you have the right for us to provide you with your data in a format that can be moved to another computer this. This right only applies to information that you have provided to us, which we are processing with your consent or to deliver a contract. It also only applies to information that is processed electronically.
You have the right to object – When you have provided your consent to direct marketing, then you can remove such consent at any point either by contacting us or by clicking the appropriate unsubscribe link. You can also object to us processing your data in other ways. However, please note that we have the right to consider and respond to such a request; this includes refusing to process a request if we deem there to be grounds to do so.
You have certain rights in respect of automated processes – If a decision is made as a consequence of an automated process, then you have certain rights. At present, Tax Return Filer Ltd Limited does not use automated processes exclusively to make decisions, and consequently, such rights are not applicable. However, should you believe that we have made a decision based exclusively on an automated process, then please contact us, and we will review.
Please note that we will only seek to obtain sufficient information from you for the purposes detailed in the information usage section. However, we recognize your rights above to restrict, object, or request the erasure of any information held. Whilst the GDPR allows us to refuse to process such requests in certain circumstances, it does not require us to consider all the consequences of processing a request. For example, your request to restrict the use of your information may result in us being unable to provide you with a service you have sought. Therefore, we would suggest that you consider all consequences of asserting a right, and we would be more than happy to discuss any concerns that you may have.
Nothing in this policy should be construed as seeking to limit or remove your statutory rights. Should you have any concerns in this regard, please seek appropriate independent legal advice.
This notice may be updated to take into account any changes in legislation. If we change our privacy policy, we will post the changes on this page and may place notices on other pages of the Website so that you may be aware of the information we collect and how we use it at all times. Continued use of the service will signify that you agree to any such changes.
Again, should you have any concerns or wish to exert a right, then please do not hesitate to email info@taxreturnfiler.co.uk
Should you be dissatisfied with how we use your information, then you have the right to complain to the Information Commissioners Office (“ICO”). Details are available at https://ico.org.uk/concerns/.
