We do not ask website visitors to provide information that is unnecessary for the stated purpose of an enquiry.

Why we use your information.

Personal information may be used for the following specific purposes:

  • To respond to enquiries submitted through the website
  • To communicate about a requested quotation or business requirement
  • To understand product, specification, quantity and supply requirements
  • To arrange and manage business communications
  • To provide information requested by an individual or business contact
  • To maintain appropriate business records
  • To operate, maintain and improve the website
  • To maintain website security and prevent misuse
  • To comply with applicable legal or regulatory obligations

The basis for processing.

We identify a lawful basis for each relevant processing activity. The basis depends on the purpose for which the information is being used.

Processing purpose Lawful basis Why this basis applies
Responding to an enquiry Legitimate interests Our legitimate interest is to communicate with individuals who contact the business and respond to a specific business enquiry.
Preparing or discussing a requested quotation Legitimate interests Our legitimate interest is to assess and respond to a specific commercial requirement submitted by a prospective business contact.
Managing an agreed business arrangement Contract Processing may be necessary to take steps requested before an arrangement is entered into or to perform an agreed arrangement.
Maintaining required business records Legal obligation Where applicable, information may be retained where processing is necessary to comply with a legal obligation applicable to the business.
Website security and technical administration Legitimate interests Our legitimate interest is to maintain the security, availability and appropriate operation of the website.
Optional communications where consent is required Consent Where consent is required, information will only be used for the stated optional purpose after consent has been provided.

Where we rely on legitimate interests, those interests are limited to responding to genuine business enquiries, maintaining appropriate business communications, supporting requested commercial activity, and operating a secure and reliable website. We consider the necessity and impact of the processing before relying on this basis.

Contact and quote requests.

If you submit a contact or quotation enquiry, the information provided is used to understand and respond to the request.

  • Your name may be used to address and identify the enquiry.
  • Your email address may be used to send a response.
  • Your telephone number may be used where telephone contact is requested or reasonably necessary.
  • Company information may be used to understand the business context of an enquiry.
  • Requirement details may be reviewed to prepare an appropriate response.

Information submitted through a form is not used for an unrelated purpose simply because it has been provided to us.

When information may be shared.

EPINOSTICS LTD does not sell personal information. Information may be disclosed only where there is a relevant business, technical or legal reason for doing so.

Service providers

We may use carefully selected providers that support the operation of the website or communication systems. Depending on the services in use, these may include website hosting, email, website form processing, security, technical support and related infrastructure providers.

Professional and legal requirements

Information may be disclosed where reasonably necessary to professional advisers, competent authorities, courts, regulators or other parties where disclosure is required by applicable law or is necessary to establish, exercise or defend legal rights.

Where another organisation processes personal information on our behalf, we take reasonable steps to ensure that the processing is appropriately controlled and limited to the relevant purpose.

International transfers.

Some technical or service providers used by a website may process information outside the United Kingdom.

Where personal information is transferred outside the UK, EPINOSTICS LTD will use an applicable lawful transfer mechanism and appropriate safeguards where required by applicable data protection law.

Depending on the provider and circumstances, this may include an applicable adequacy regulation or decision, appropriate contractual safeguards, or another transfer mechanism permitted by applicable law.

Where required, information about the relevant safeguards can be requested using the contact details provided in this policy.

How long we keep information.

We keep personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, unless a longer period is required by law or is necessary for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal rights.

General website enquiries Normally retained for up to 12 months after the enquiry has been closed, unless a longer period is justified.
Quotation and commercial enquiries Normally retained for up to 24 months after the enquiry or quotation activity has ended, unless a longer period is required for an ongoing business relationship or another lawful purpose.
Business correspondence Normally retained for up to 24 months after the relevant communication has ended, subject to applicable record keeping requirements.
Consent records Retained while the consent remains relevant and for a reasonable period afterwards to demonstrate how and when consent was obtained.
Technical and security records Normally retained for no longer than 12 months, unless a longer period is reasonably required to investigate or resolve a specific security or technical matter.
Legal or statutory records Retained for the period required by the applicable legal, accounting or regulatory requirement.

When information is no longer required, it will be securely deleted, anonymised or otherwise disposed of as appropriate.

Keeping information secure.

We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal information against unauthorised access, inappropriate use, alteration, loss or disclosure.

Access to personal information is limited to people and service providers who require it for a relevant purpose. Where appropriate, access controls, account protections, secure communications and website security measures are used.

No method of transmission or storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure. We therefore review the practical security arrangements used for information handled through our website and business communications.

Cookies and website technology.

This website may use cookies and similar technologies for essential technical functions, preferences, website operation and, where applicable, measurement.

The specific cookies used by the website and their retention periods are explained in our Cookie Policy .

Where consent is required for a particular type of cookie, the relevant technology will not be used for that purpose unless the required consent has been obtained.

Your information, your rights.

Depending on the circumstances and the lawful basis involved, you may have rights in relation to your personal information.

Access Request a copy of personal information we hold about you.
Correction Ask us to correct information that is inaccurate or incomplete.
Erasure Request deletion of personal information where the legal conditions for erasure apply.
Restriction Ask us to restrict processing where the relevant legal conditions apply.
Objection Object to processing based on legitimate interests in circumstances where the right applies.
Data portability Request applicable personal information in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format where this right applies.
Withdraw consent Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time.
Complaint You may raise a concern with the Information Commissioner’s Office if you believe your data protection rights have not been properly addressed.

The availability of each right depends on the particular processing activity and its lawful basis. For example, withdrawal of consent applies only where consent is the lawful basis for the relevant processing.

Changing your preferences.

Where we rely on consent to process personal information, you may withdraw that consent at any time.

You can request withdrawal by contacting us using the email address shown below. Where cookies or similar technologies are involved, relevant preferences may also be managed through the website’s available cookie controls.

Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing that took place before the withdrawal.

Automated decisions.

EPINOSTICS LTD does not use personal information collected through this website to make solely automated decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects on individuals.

Enquiries and business communications are reviewed in the ordinary course of business rather than being determined solely by automated decision-making.

Website audience.

This website is intended for business and general information purposes and is not directed specifically at children.

We do not knowingly request information from children for purposes unrelated to the operation of the website or the handling of genuine enquiries.

Third-party websites.

Our website may contain links to websites or services operated by other organisations.

Those websites operate under their own privacy arrangements. EPINOSTICS LTD is not responsible for the privacy practices, content or security arrangements of external websites.

We recommend reviewing the privacy information provided by an external website before submitting personal information through it.

Keeping this policy accurate.

We may update this Privacy Policy when our processing arrangements, website functionality, service providers or applicable requirements change.

Where a material change affects how personal information is used, appropriate information will be provided before the new processing begins where required.

The version published on this page represents the privacy information currently provided for this website.
