Privacy Policy

We are committed to protecting the privacy and security of personal data. This policy tells you how we will collect and use your personal data and what you should expect in respect of the personal information about you that we have collected.

We are Printmx, a trading name of ESP Colour Limited (registered in England & Wales with Company No: 03513763). Our office address (which is also our Registered Office) is at The Colour Hub, Millbuck Close, Swindon, Wiltshire SN2 8XU.

The person with responsibility for our data protection compliance is Simon Smogur (“the Data Protection Manager”), and he can be contacted via email at hello@printmx.com or by telephone on 01793 438404.

We are the data controller of the personal data that we keep and use, and we are therefore responsible for making sure that our systems, processes and people comply with the relevant data protection laws in respect of that personal data.

We will act in respect of personal data to comply with the six principles of the Data Protection Act 2018 and other applicable data protection legislation (including the UK General Data Protection Regulation), which are:

  • Lawfulness, fairness and transparency
  • Purpose limitation
  • Data minimisation
  • Accuracy
  • Storage limitation
  • Integrity and confidentiality

You have rights in respect of how your personal data can be processed; these include the right to request:

  • a copy of your personal data
  • that inaccurate data is rectified; and
  • that your personal data is, in certain circumstances, erased or restricted

You have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner, which you can do by contacting the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) directly. Full contact details, including a helpline number, can be found on the ICO website (www.ico.org.uk). The ICO’s website also has useful information on your rights and our obligations. However, please raise any concerns or issues with us first so that we may deal with this as quickly as possible for you.

COLLECTION, USE, DISCLOSURE AND RETENTION OF PERSONAL DATA

We collect and process data through your use of our website, including any data you may provide through this website when you purchase products from us. Our website is not intended for children and we do not knowingly collect data relating to children.

It is important that you read this privacy policy together with any other privacy policy or fair processing policy we may provide on specific occasions when we are collecting or processing personal data about you so that you are fully aware of how and why we are using your data. This privacy policy supplements other notices and privacy policies and is not intended to override them.

All of our people are required to abide by our privacy policies when handling personal data, and are provided with appropriate data protection training. Any breach of data protection will be taken seriously, and may result in disciplinary action. Our Data Protection Manager will provide the advice and guidance to our people on data protection issues, as is required.

Marketing

We strive to provide you with choices regarding certain personal data uses, particularly around marketing and advertising.

Promotional offers from us

We may use your Identity, Contact, Technical, Usage and Profile Data to form a view on what we think you may want or need, or what may be of interest to you. This is how we decide which products, services and offers may be relevant for you (we call this marketing).

You will receive marketing communications from us if you have requested information from us or purchased goods from us and you have not opted out of receiving that marketing.

Third-party marketing

In respect of any third parties, we will get your express opt-in consent before we share your personal data with any third party for marketing purposes.

Opting out

You can ask us or third parties to stop sending you marketing messages at any time by following the opt-out links on any marketing message sent to you or by contacting us at any time.

Where you opt out of receiving these marketing messages, this will not apply to personal data provided to us as a result of a product or service purchase or other transactions.

DISCLOSURE

We may share personal data with third parties as is necessary for the purposes set out in the table above, and generally as necessary in the operation of our business, including the delivery of products and those third parties that we use to help us run and support our business. By way of example only, we will share personal data with the companies involved in and supporting the delivery of our website, including Mixam Associates Limited, Mixam Platforms Limited and Mixam UK Limited.

In respect of all disclosures of personal data, we will only share the personal information which is necessary for the particular purpose for which it is provided, or where we have another legitimate interest in doing so, and we will ensure that the personal data is appropriately protected.

We may also share personal data with third parties to whom we may choose to sell, transfer or merge parts of our business or our assets. Alternatively, we may seek to acquire other businesses or merge with them. If a change happens to our business, then the new owners may use your personal data in the same way as set out in this privacy policy.

RETENTION

We will keep personal data only for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes for which we collected it, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting or reporting requirements. We may retain your personal data for a longer period in the event of a complaint or if we reasonably believe there is a prospect of litigation in respect to our relationship with you.

To determine the appropriate retention period for personal data, we consider the amount, nature and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure of your personal data, the purposes for which we process your personal data and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal, regulatory, tax, accounting or other requirements.

Normally we will keep basic information about our customers (including Contact, Identity, Financial and Transaction Data) for six years after they cease being customers for tax purposes.

In some circumstances you can ask us to delete your data: see “5. Your Rights” below for further information.

In some circumstances we will anonymise your personal data (so that it can no longer be associated with you) for research or statistical purposes, in which case we may use this information indefinitely without further notice to you.

2. Changes to your personal data

It is very important that the personal information that we hold about you is accurate and current. Please tell us if your personal information changes during your relationship with us.

3. Data security

We have put in place measures to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used or accessed in an unauthorised way, altered or disclosed. In addition, we limit access to your personal data to those of our people and other third parties who have a business need to know. They will only process your personal data on our instructions and where they have agreed to treat the information confidentially and to keep it secure. We have put in place procedures to deal with any suspected data security breach and will notify you and the ICO of a suspected breach where we are legally required to do so.

4. Where we store your personal data

We principally store data, both electronically and on file, in the UK at our offices.

Personal data may be transferred outside of the UK by processors acting on our behalf. Wherever we transfer your personal data outside of the UK we will ensure that personal data is adequately protected, as required by applicable data protection legislation. This would include by use of the Standard Contractual Clauses as approved by the ICO to protect personal data.

5. Your rights

Under certain circumstances, you have the right by law to request:

  • access to your personal data. This enables you to ask to receive a copy of the personal data that we hold about you and to check that we are lawfully processing it.
  • correction of the personal data that we hold about you.
  • erasure of your personal data.
  • Object to processing of your personal data where we are relying on our legitimate interest and there is something about your particular situation which makes you want to object to processing on this ground.

  • restriction of processing of your personal data.
  • transfer of your personal data to another party.
