6. Legal Basis for processing personal data

Our legal basis for collecting and using the personal data described above will depend on the personal information concerned and the specific context in which we collect it. However, we will generally only collect personal information from you where:;

• We need the personal information to perform a contract with you upon signup and acceptance of our End User License Agreement (EULA);

If we ask you to provide personal information to comply with a legal requirement or to perform a contract with you, we will make this clear at the relevant time and advise you whether the provision of your personal information is mandatory or not.

 

7. Security of your data

Protecting personal data from access, loss or alteration is of the utmost importance to us. All visitor records, photos, account data, configuration data and contact information are stored in the Cloud, data centres within the United Kingdom.

Servers are updated with the latest security patches during scheduled routine maintenance.

The TAAP Visitor Book app and Website (referred to as our Services) access data using our secure API (short for: application program interface - how software components interact with each other forming the basis of software applications). The API uses encryption for data in transit, and every request must include a time-limited authentication token generated by the authentication system. Visitor data is encrypted at rest. For support purposes, a limited number of senior engineers can access client data via a virtual private network secure tunnel, controlled by private key-based secrets and multi-factor authentication.

As a Website user, you will log in with an email address and password, managed by your Admin as specified in [4]. User passwords are hashed at all times and cannot be accessed or intercepted as we use Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology.

There are two user levels that can be set, controlling access to user management and configuration options. For accounts with multiple sites, there is also the option to restrict individual users to only view data for a single site.

We have put in place appropriate security 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 employees, agents, contractors and other third parties who have a business need to know. They will only process your personal data on our instructions, and they are subject to a duty of confidentiality. We have put in place procedures to deal with any suspected personal data breach and will notify you and any applicable regulator of a breach where we are legally required to do so.

 

8. Where will your personal data be processed?

Visitor data collected via our Services is only stored and/or processed within the United Kingdom or the European Economic Area (EEA.

Sometimes we will need to share your personal data with third parties and suppliers outside the European Economic Area (EEA). This will be for purposes such as: Technical Support, Project Management Tools and our Customer Relationship Management system.

Where your personal data is transferred outside the EEA, it will only be transferred to countries that have been identified as providing adequate protection for EEA data, or where approved transfer mechanisms are in place to protect your personal data, i.e., by ensuring the entity is Privacy Shield certified (for transfers to US-based third parties). If you wish for more information about this, please contact dataprotectionofficer@ontaap.com

Any transfer of your personal data will follow applicable laws and we will treat the information under the guiding principles of this Privacy Policy.

 

9. How long will we hold your data?

We will not keep your personal data for any longer than is necessary in light of the reason(s) for which it was first collected or to comply with applicable legal, tax or accounting requirements in accordance with our data retention policy. Following that period, we’ll make sure it’s deleted or anonymised.

For the TAAP Visitors data submitted by the TAAP Visitor Book app into the Website, the data will be held for a period of 30 days only and will be deleted on day 31. Should you wish to see a copy of our Data Retention Policy, this can be requested by email to dataprotectionofficer@ontaap.com.
