  • Legal obligation: where we must process personal data to comply with legal or regulatory requirements, including property, landlord, tenancy, tax, anti-money laundering, fraud prevention or record-keeping obligations.

This may include responding to enquiries, improving our services, maintaining records, fraud prevention,  website administration, business development and selected direct marketing to existing or prospective clients where permitted.

  • Consent: where you have clearly agreed to specific processing, such as receiving certain marketing communications or accepting non-essential cookies.

  • Establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims: where processing is necessary in connection with a dispute, complaint or legal issue.

 

Where special category or more sensitive information is processed, we will only do so where a lawful condition also applies, for example where required by law, where necessary in connection with legal claims, or where you have provided explicit consent.​​

or otherwise engage with us, we may contact you about your enquiry and, where permitted by law, about
similar services that may be relevant to you. Where consent is required, we will only send marketing if you
have opted in.


You can ask us to stop sending marketing messages at any time by using the unsubscribe link in our
emails or by contacting us at contact@lettingsriviera.com.

 

9. Automated decision-making and profiling
We do not use the website to make solely automated decisions that produce legal or similarly significant
effects about you. However, we may use website analytics, audience segmentation, enquiry
categorisation, marketing tools and internal assessment criteria to help us understand demand, prioritise
responses and improve service delivery.

Where third parties process personal data on our behalf, we expect them to act securely, lawfully and only
for authorised purposes.

 

11. International transfers
Some of our third-party suppliers may store or process personal information outside the UK. Where that
happens, we will only transfer personal information where permitted by law and where appropriate
safeguards are in place, such as adequacy regulations, standard contractual clauses, or other recognised
transfer mechanisms.

 

12. Data security
We take reasonable and proportionate technical and organisational measures to protect personal
information from accidental loss, unauthorised access, misuse, disclosure, alteration or destruction. These
measures may include access controls, password protection, secure systems, staff awareness, supplier
due diligence and restricted internal access.
However, no internet transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure. You
should take reasonable care when sending information to us online.

 

13. How long we keep your information
We keep personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was
collected, including to satisfy legal, regulatory, accounting, complaint-handling, anti-fraud and contractual
requirements.


Retention periods may vary depending on the nature of the information and the service involved. By way of
general guidance:

 

  • General website enquiry data is usually retained for as long as needed to respond, follow up and

manage the relationship, and for a reasonable period afterwards.

  • Client, landlord, tenancy, transaction and compliance records may be retained for longer where

required for legal, tax, anti-money laundering, dispute resolution or professional record-keeping
purposes.

  • Marketing suppression data may be retained to ensure we respect your opt-out choices.

  • Technical logs and analytics data may be retained in line with our website and supplier settings, subject to your cookie preferences.

 

We review retention periods regularly and may keep information for longer where necessary to establish,
