The principles

Envirotech Group of Companies shall comply with the principles of Data Protection Act (DPA) 2018 and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). We will make every effort possible in everything we do to comply with these principles.

The Principles are:

Lawful, fair and transparent – Data collection must be fair, for a legal purpose and we must be open and transparent as to how the data will be
Limited for its purpose – Data can only be collected for a specific, explicit and legitimate
Data minimisation – Any data collected must be necessary and not excessive for its
Accurate – The data we hold must be accurate and kept up to
Retention – We cannot store data longer than
Integrity and confidentiality – The data we hold must be kept safe and
Accountability and transparency – We must ensure accountability and transparency in all our use of personal We must show how we comply with each Principle. A written record must be kept detailing how all the data processing activities comply with each of the Principles. This must be kept up to date and must be approved by the DPO.

To comply with data protection laws and the accountability and transparency Principle of GDPR, we must demonstrate compliance.

Envirotech Group of companies is committed to ensure all employees understand the responsibilities to ensure the following data protection obligations are meet:

Fully implement all appropriate technical and organisational measures
Maintain up to date and relevant documentation on all processing activities
Conducting Data Protection Impact Assessments
Implement measures to ensure privacy by design and default, including:
- Data minimisation
- Pseudonymisation
- Transparency
- Allowing individuals to monitor processing
- Creating and improving security and enhanced privacy procedures on an ongoing basis

Procedures

Fair and lawful processing

Envirotech Group of Companies will process personal data fairly and lawfully in accordance with individuals’ rights under the first Principle. This generally means that we should not process personal data unless the individual whose details we are processing has consented to this happening.

If we cannot apply a lawful basis (explained below), our processing does not conform to the first principle and will be unlawful. Data subjects have the right to have any data unlawfully processed erased.

If you are in any doubt about how we handle data, contact the DPO for clarification.

Lawful basis for processing data

Envirotech Group of Companies must establish a lawful basis for processing data. Ensuring that any data the group is responsible for managing has a written lawful basis approved by the DPO. It is the individual’s responsibility to check the lawful basis for any data they are working with and ensure all actions comply with the lawful basis. At least one of the following conditions must apply whenever personal data is processed:

Consent – We hold recent, clear, explicit, and defined consent for the individual’s data to be processed for a specific
Contract – The processing is necessary to fulfil or prepare a contract for the
Legal obligation – We have a legal obligation to process the data (excluding a contract).
Vital interests – Processing the data is necessary to protect a person’s life or in a medical
Public function – Processing necessary to carry out a public function, a task of public interest or the function has a clear basis in
Legitimate interest – The processing is necessary for our legitimate This condition does not apply if there is a good reason to protect the individual’s personal data which overrides the legitimate interest.

Individual’s making an assessment of the lawful basis, must first establish that the processing is necessary. This means the processing must be a targeted, appropriate way of achieving the stated purpose. Lawful basis cannot be relied upon if you can reasonable achieve the same purpose by some other means.

Remember that more than one basis may apply, and the best fit for the purpose should be relied upon, not what is easiest. The following factors should be considered and documented:

What is the purpose for processing the data?
Can it reasonably be done in a different way?
Is there a choice as to whether or not to process the data? Who does the processing benefit?
After selecting the lawful basis, is this the same as the lawful basis the data subject would expect? What is the impact of the processing on the individual?
Are you in a position of power over them? Are they a vulnerable person?
Would they be likely to object to the processing?
Are you able to stop the processing at any time on request, and have you factored in how to do this?

Our commitment to the first Principle requires us to document this process and show that we have considered which lawful basis best applies to each processing purpose, and fully justify these decisions.

The Privacy Statement informs individuals of the lawful basis for processing their data, as well as the intended purpose. This applies whether we have collected the data directly from the individual, or from another source.

Employees who are responsible for making an assessment of the lawful basis and implementing the privacy notice for the processing activity, must have approval from the DPO.

Special categories of personal data

Previously known as sensitive personal data, this means data about an individual which is more sensitive, so requires more protection. This type of data could create more significant risks to a person’s fundamental rights and freedoms, for example by putting them at risk of unlawful discrimination. The special categories include information about an individual’s:

Age
Disability
Ethnic origin
Health / Genetics
Politics
Race
Religion
Sex
Sexual orientation
Trade union membership (or non-trade union membership)

In most cases where we process special categories of personal data we will require the data subject’s explicit consent to do this unless exceptional circumstances apply, or we are required to do this by law (e.g. to comply with legal obligations to ensure health and safety at work). Any such consent will need to clearly identify what the relevant data is, why it is being processed and to whom it will be disclosed.

The condition for processing special categories of personal data must comply with the law. If we do not have a lawful basis for processing special categories of data that processing activity must cease.

We will not process personal data obtained for one purpose for any unconnected purpose unless the individual concerned has agreed to this or would otherwise reasonably expect this.

Individuals may ask that we correct inaccurate personal data relating to them. If you believe that information is inaccurate you should record the fact that the accuracy of the information is disputed and inform the DPO.

Data security

Personal data must be kept securely. Individuals have a responsibility to ensure date is not unauthorised, unlawfully accessed, altered, mislaid, lost, misused, destroyed or damaged. Where other organisations process personal data as a service on our behalf, the DPO will establish what, if any, additional specific data security arrangements need to be implemented in contracts with those third-party organisations.

Data retention

We must retain personal data for no longer than is necessary. What is necessary will depend on the circumstances of each case, taking into account the reasons that the personal data was obtained, but should be determined in a manner consistent with our data retention guidelines.

Transferring data internationally

There are restrictions on international transfers of personal data. You must not transfer personal data abroad, or anywhere else outside of normal rules and procedures without express permission from the DPO.

Right of individuals

Individuals have rights to their data which we must respect and comply with to the best of our ability. We must ensure individuals can exercise their rights in the following ways:

Right to be informed – providing privacy notices which are concise, transparent, intelligible and easily accessible, free of charge, that are written in clear and plain language. Keeping a record of how we use personal data to demonstrate compliance with the need for accountability and transparency.
Right of access – enabling individuals to access their personal data and supplementary information. Allowing individuals to be aware of and verify the lawfulness of the processing activities.

Right to erasure – we must delete or remove an individual’s data if requested and there is no compelling reason for its continued processing.
Right to restrict processing – we must comply with any request to restrict, block, or otherwise suppress the processing of personal data. We are permitted to store personal data if it has been restricted, but not process it further. We must retain enough data to ensure the right to restriction is respected in the future.
Right to data portability – we must provide individuals with their data so that they can reuse it for their own purposes or across different services. We must provide it in a commonly used, machine-readable format, and send it directly to another controller if requested.
Right to object – we must respect the right of an individual to object to data processing based on legitimate interest or the performance of a public interest task. We must respect the right of an individual to object to processing their data for scientific and historical research and statistics.
Rights in relation to automated decision making and profiling – we must respect the rights of individuals in relation to automated decision making and profiling. Individuals retain their right to object to such automated processing, have the rationale explained to them, and request human intervention.

Subject Access Requests

An individual has the right to receive confirmation that their data is being processed, access to their personal data and supplementary information that Envirotech Group of Companies hold on them.

We will provide an individual with a copy of the information the request, free of charge. This must occur without delay, and within one month of receipt. We endeavour to provide data subjects access to their information in commonly used electronic formats, and where possible, provide direct access to the information through a remote accessed secure system. Employees can access information held by the company through the Access HR system.

If complying with the request is complex or numerous, the deadline can be extended by two months, but the individual must be informed within one month. You must obtain approval from the DPO before extending the deadline.

If any person receives a subject request for any company named under Envirotech Group of Companies, the request must be immediately forwarded to the DPO.

We can refuse to respond to certain requests, and can, in circumstances of the request being manifestly unfounded or excessive, charge a fee. If the request is for a large quantity of data, we can request the individual specify the information they are requesting. This can only be done with express permission from the DPO.

Once a subject access request has been made, you must not change or amend any of the data that has been requested. Doing so is a criminal offence.

Data portability requests

We must provide the data requested in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format. We must provide this data either to the individual who has requested it, or to the data controller they have requested it be sent to. This must be done free of charge and without delay, and no later than one month. This can be extended to two months for complex or numerous requests, but the individual must be informed of the extension within one month and you must receive express permission from the DPO first.

Right to erasure

Individuals have a right to have their data erased and for processing to cease in the following circumstances:

Where the personal data is no longer necessary in relation to the purpose for which it was originally collected and/or processed
Where consent is withdrawn
Where the individual objects to processing and there is no overriding legitimate interest for continuing the processing
The personal data was unlawfully processed or otherwise breached data protection laws

The right to object

Individuals have the right to object to their data being used on grounds relating to their particular situation. We must cease processing unless:

We have legitimate grounds for processing which override the interests, rights and freedoms of the

Third parties

Using third party controllers and processors

As a data controller we must have written contracts in place with any third-party data controllers and/or data processors that we use. The contract must contain specific clauses which set out our and their liabilities, obligations and responsibilities.

As a data controller, we must only appoint processors who can provide sufficient guarantees under GDPR and that the rights of data subjects will be respected and protected.

Contracts

Our contracts must comply with the standards set out by the ICO and, where possible, follow the standard contractual clauses which are available. Our contracts with data controllers and/or data processors must set out the subject matter and duration of the processing, the nature and stated purpose of the processing activities, the types of personal data and categories of data subject, and the obligations and rights of the controller.

At a minimum, our contracts must include terms that specify:

Acting only on written
Those involved in processing the data are subject to a duty of
Appropriate measures will be taken to ensure the security of the
Sub-processors will only be engaged with the prior consent of the controller and under a written
The controller will assist the processor in dealing with subject access requests and allowing data subjects to exercise their rights under

Delete or return all personal data at the end of the contract
Submit to regular audits and inspections; and provide whatever information necessary for the controller and processor to meet their legal
Nothing will be done by either the controller or processor to infringe on

Criminal offence data

Any criminal record checks are justified by law. Criminal record checks cannot be undertaken based solely on the consent of the subject. We cannot keep a comprehensive register of criminal offence data. All data relating to criminal offences is considered to be a special category of personal data and must be treated as such. You must have approval from the DPO prior to carrying out a criminal record check.

Audits

The DPO will conduct regular data audits to manage and mitigate risks. This inform will be recorded on the data register. This contains information on what data is held, where it is stored, how it is used, who is responsible and any further regulations or retention timescales that may be relevant.

Monitoring

Everyone must observe this policy and comply with this policy fully at all times. The DPO has overall responsibility for this policy. Envirotech Group of Companies will keep this policy under review and amend or change it as required. You must notify the DPO of any breaches of this policy.

Training

All employees are provided with data protection training as part of their induction. If employees take on new roles or responsibilities, they are responsible for requesting new data protection training relevant to the new role or responsibilities.

If you require additional training on data protection matters, contact the DPO.

Reporting breaches

Any breach of this policy or of data protection laws must be reported as soon as you have become aware of a breach or as soon as is practically possible, to the DPO.

All employees have an obligation to report actual or potential data protection compliance failures. This allows us to:

Investigate the failure and take remedial steps if
Maintain a register of compliance
Notify the ICO of any compliance failures that are material either in their own right or as part of a pattern of failures

Any employee who fails to notify of a breach or is found to have known or suspected a breach has occurred but has not followed the correct reporting procedures may be liable to disciplinary action.

Envirotech Group of Companies has a legal obligation to report any data breaches to ICO within 72 hours. The DPO process the notification via the ICO website.

Breach procedures

The DPO will alert any reported breaches to the Directors.

The DPO will investigate the report and determine whether a breach has occurred. The DPO will consider whether personal data had been accidentally or unlawfully:

Disclosed or made available where it should not have
Made available to unauthorised employees, third parties, organisations or

The DPO will make all reasonable efforts to contain and minimise the impact of the breach, assisted by relevant employees and/or third-party providers, where necessary.

The DPO will assess the potential consequences, based on how serious the breach is and how likely they are to reoccur.

The DPO will decide whether the breach must be reported to the ICO. This will be determined on a case by case basis, by considering if the breach is likely to negatively affect people’s rights and freedom or cause people any physical, material or non-material damage (emotional stress), through:

Loss of control over their
Identify theft or
Financial
Unauthorised reversal of
Damage to
Loss of
Any other significant economic or social disadvantage to the individual(s)

If it is likely that there will be a risk to people’s rights and freedoms, the DPO must notify the ICO.

The findings of the investigation and the decision must be documented and stored. This is in case it is challenged by the ICO or an individual affected at a later date.

The DPO will assess the risk to each individual concerned based on the severity of the breach and the likelihood of potential or actual impact. If this risk is high, the DPO will notify all individuals concerned, in writing, immediately.

The DPO will notify any third-parties who can assist to mitigate the risk/loss to individuals. These may include:

Third-party providers
The police
Insurance companies
Banks, credit card providers and other financial

The Directors will review each case as soon as reasonably possible, to understand what happened and changes will be implemented to mitigate future breaches.

Failure to comply

We take compliance with this policy very seriously. Failure to comply puts Envirotech Group of Companies and all known associates at risk; including all employees. The importance of this policy means that failure to comply with any requirement may lead to disciplinary action under our procedures which may result in dismissal.

If you have any questions or concerns about anything in this policy, do not hesitate to contact the DPO.
