This Privacy Notice only applies to personal information that we collect through our website at www.thesustainabledevelopmentgroup.co.uk (“Website”).

Types of Data Collected

The personal information that we may collect about you broadly falls into the following categories:

Information that you provide voluntarily

Certain parts of our Website may ask you to provide personal information voluntarily: for example, we may ask you to provide your contact details to subscribe to marketing communications from us, and/or to submit enquiries to us.

Information that we collect automatically

Cookies are text files placed on your computer to collect standard Internet log information and visitor behaviour information. When you visit our websites, we may collect information from you automatically through cookies or similar technology. For further information, please visit allaboutcookies.org

Our site uses Google Analytics to track user interaction. We use this data to better understand our users and their usage of our website. Google does not give us any personal information about you or your business. Google Analytics makes use of cookies, details of which can be found on Google’s developer guides.

Legal basis for processing personal information

The Owner may process Personal Data relating to Users if one of the following applies:

Users have given their consent for one or more specific purposes. Note: Under some legislations the Owner may be allowed to process Personal Data until the User objects to such processing (“opt-out”), without having to rely on consent or any other of the following legal bases. This, however, does not apply, whenever the processing of Personal Data is subject to European data protection law;
provision of Data is necessary for the performance of an agreement with the User and/or for any pre-contractual obligations thereof;
processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which the Owner is subject;
processing is related to a task that is carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the Owner;
processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by the Owner or by a third party.

Marketing

Our Company would like to send you information about products and services of ours that we think you might like. 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. You have the right at any time to stop our company from contacting you for marketing purposes. If you no longer wish to be contacted for marketing purposes, please contact us using our details listed on the ‘Contact us’ page on our site.

Sharing your information

SDG will not sell your personal data. We may share your personal data with third-part service providers contracted to SDG in the course of dealing with you.

SDG will not share your personal data with any third party for marketing purposes.

International data transfers

Your personal information may be transferred to, and processed in, countries other than the country in which you are resident. These countries may have data protection laws that are different to the laws of your country (and, in some cases, may not be as protective).

Specifically, our website is hosted on the Wix.com platform. Wix.com provides us with the online platform that allows us to sell our products and services to you. Your data may be stored through Wix.com’s data storage, databases and the general Wix.com applications. For more information about Wix.com's privacy policy, visit wix.com/about/privacy.

Data retention

We retain personal information we collect from you where we have an ongoing legitimate business need to do so (for example, to provide you with a service you have requested or to comply with applicable legal requirements).

When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will either delete or anonymise it.

SDG will not hold Personal Data for longer than is deemed necessary for the purposes for which the data is processed.

Under certain circumstances, you have the following data protection rights:

Request access to your personal data
Request correction of your personal data.
Request erasure of your personal data.
Object to processing of your personal data.
Request restriction of processing your personal data.
Request transfer of your personal data.
Right to withdraw consent.

Please contact us if you would like to exercise any of these rights.
