Privacy notice
Last updated: 4 June 2019
https://intoitMEDIA.co.uk (‘Website’) is provided by intoitMEDIA (‘we’/’us’/’our’). In doing so, we may
be in a position to receive and process personal information relating to you. As the controller of this
information, we’re providing this Privacy Notice (‘Notice’) to explain our approach to personal information.
We intend only to process personal information fairly and transparently as required by data protection law
including the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). In particular, before obtaining information from
you (including through use of cookies) we intend to alert you to this Notice, let you know how we intend to
process the information (including through use of cookies) and (unless processing is necessary for at least
one of the 5 reasons outlined in clause 2 below) we’ll only process the information if you consent to that
processing. The GDPR also defines certain ‘special categories’ of personal information that’s considered
more sensitive. These categories require a higher level of protection, as explained below.
Of course, you may browse parts of this Website without providing any information about yourself and
without accepting cookies. In that case, it’s unlikely we’ll possess and process any information relating to
you.
We’ll start this Notice by setting out the conditions we must satisfy before processing your data. However,
you may wish to start with this table at clause 4, which summarises what we intend to collect, or this table at
clause 8.5, which summarises our use of cookies. The Notice also explains some of the security measures
we take to protect your personal information, and tells you certain things we will or won’t do.
Sometimes, when you take a new service or product from us, or discuss taking a new service or product but
decide against it, we might wish to provide you with further information about similar services or products by
email or other written electronic communication. In that situation, we’ll always give you the opportunity to
refuse to receive that further information and you can change your mind at any point (opt-out) by contacting
our Data Protection Officer (DPO) as set in clause 1.4. We’ll endeavour to remind you of your right to opt-out
on each occasion that we provide such information.

purpose or purposes that we will have specified.
2.2 The processing is necessary for the performance a contract that we have with you.

2.4 The processing is necessary to protect someone’s life.
2.5 The processing is necessary for performance of a task that’s in the public interest.
2.6 The processing is necessary for our or another’s legitimate interest – but in this case, we’ll balance
those interests against your interests. - How to consent
3.1 At the point of collecting the information, we’ll endeavour to explain how we intend to use the
information and which of these purposes apply. If we rely on consent, we’ll provide you with the
opportunity to tell us that you’re happy to provide the information.
3.2 If at any point in time you change your mind and decide that you don’t consent, please let us know
and we’ll endeavour to stop processing your information in the specified manner, or we’ll delete
your data if there is no continuing reason for possessing it.
3.3 If you don’t consent to a particular bit of processing, we’ll endeavour to ensure that the Website
and our service continue to operate without the need for that information. - Information we expect to collect from you
4.1 We envisage asking for the following types of information from you:
Information

Purpose and related details Justification
Name • We ask for this to Verify Identity • It’s necessary for the
performance of a contract with

4.2 We may collect personal information about you from a number of sources, including the following:

include your contact details, date of birth, how you will pay for the product or service

4.2.2 From you when you contact us with an enquiry or in response to a communication from
us, in which case, this may tell us something about how you use our services.
4.2.3 From documents that are available to the public, such as the electoral register.
4.2.4 From third parties to whom you have provided information with your consent to pass it
on to other organisations or persons – when we receive such information we will let you
know as soon as is reasonably practicable.
4.3 If you refuse to provide information requested, then if that information is necessary for a service
we provide to you we may need to stop providing that service.
4.4 At the time of collecting information, by whichever method is used, we’ll endeavour to alert you
and inform you about our purposes and legal basis for processing that information, as well as
whether we intend to share the information with anyone else or send it outside of the European
Economic Area. If at any point you think we’ve invited you to provide information without
explaining why, feel free to object and ask for our reasons. - Using your personal information
5.1 Data protection, privacy and security are important to us, and we shall only use your personal
information for specified purposes and shall not keep such personal information longer than is
necessary to fulfil these purposes. The following are examples of such purposes. We have also
indicated below which GDPR justification applies, however it will depend on the circumstances of
each case. At the time of collecting we will provide further information, and you may always ask for
further information from us.
5.1.1 To help us to identify you when you contact us. This will normally be necessary for the
performance our contract.
5.1.2 To help us to identify accounts, services and/or products which you could have from us
or selected partners from time to time. We may do this by automatic means using a
scoring system, which uses the personal information you’ve provided and/or any
information we hold about you and personal information from third party agencies
(including credit reference agencies). We will only use your information for this purpose
if you agree to it.
5.1.3 To help us to administer and to contact you about improved administration of any
accounts, services and products we have provided before, do provide now or will or
may provide in the future. This will often be necessary, but sometimes the
improvements will not be necessary in which case we will ask whether you agree.
5.1.4 To allow us to carry out marketing analysis and customer profiling (including with
transactional information), conduct research, including creating statistical and testing
information. This will sometimes require that you consent, but will sometimes be exempt
as market research.
5.1.5 To help to prevent and detect fraud or loss. This will only be done in certain
circumstances when we consider it necessary or the law requires it.
5.1.6 To allow us to contact you by written electronic means (such as email, text or
multimedia messages) about products and services offered by us where:
5.1.6.1 these products are similar to those you have already purchased from us,
5.1.6.2 you were given the opportunity to opt out of being contacted by us at the
time your personal information was originally collected by us and at the
time of our subsequent communications with you, and
5.1.6.3 you have not opted out of us contacting you.
5.1.7 To allow us to contact you in any way (including mail, email, telephone, visit, text or
multimedia messages) about products and services offered by us and selected partners
where you have expressly consented to us doing so.
5.1.8 To keep you up to date with our member benefit scheme under which, as part of your
membership benefits, we will give you membership information and details of discounts
and offers we negotiate from time to time on behalf of our members. We will only do this
if you have told us that you would like this benefit.
5.1.9 We may monitor and record communications with you (including phone conversations
and emails) for quality assurance and compliance.
5.1.9.1 Before doing that, we will always tell you of our intentions and of the
specific purpose in making the recording. Sometimes such recordings will
be necessary to comply with the law. Alternatively, sometimes the recording
will be necessary for our legitimate interest, but in that case we’ll only
record the call if our interest outweighs yours. This will depend on all the
circumstances, in particular the importance of the information and whether
we can obtain the information another way that’s less intrusive.
5.1.9.2 If we think the recording would be useful for us but that it’s not necessary
we’ll ask whether you consent to the recording, and will provide an option
for you to tell us that you consent. In those situations, if you don’t consent,
the call will either automatically end or will not be recorded.
5.1.10 When it’s required by law, we’ll check your details with fraud prevention agencies. If you
provide false or inaccurate information and we suspect fraud, we intend to record this.
5.2 We will not disclose your personal information to any third party except in accordance with this
Notice, and in particular in these circumstances:
5.2.1 They will be processing the data on our behalf as a data processor (where we’ll be the
data controller). In that situation, we’ll always have a contract with the data processor as
set out in the GDPR. This contract provides significant restrictions as to how the data
processor operates so that you can be confident your data is protected to the same
degree as provided in this Notice.
5.2.2 Sometimes it might be necessary to share data with another data controller. Before
doing that we’ll always tell you. Note that if we receive information about you from a
third party, then as soon as reasonably practicable afterwards we’ll let you know; that’s
required by the GDPR.
5.2.3 Alternatively, sometimes we might consider it to be in your interest to send your
information to a third party. If that’s the case, we’ll always ask whether you agree before
sending.
5.3 Where you give us personal information on behalf of someone else, you confirm that you have
provided them with the information set out in this Notice and that they have not objected to such
use of their personal information.
5.4 In connection with any transaction which we enter into with you:
5.4.1 If you provide false or inaccurate information to us and we suspect fraud, we will record
this and may share it with other people and organisations. We, and other credit and
insurance organisations, may also use technology to detect and prevent fraud.
5.4.2 We may need to transmit the payment and delivery information provided by you during
the order process for the purpose of obtaining authorisation from your bank or from
PayPal.
5.5 We may allow other people and organisations to use personal information we hold about you in
the following circumstances:
5.5.1 If we, or substantially all of our assets, are acquired or are in the process of being
acquired by a third party, in which case personal information held by us, about our
customers, will be one of the transferred assets.
5.5.2 If we have been legitimately asked to provide information for legal or regulatory
purposes or as part of legal proceedings or prospective legal proceedings.
5.5.3 We may employ companies and individuals to perform functions on our behalf and we
may disclose your personal information to these parties for the purposes set out above,
for example, for fulfilling orders, delivering packages, sending postal mail and email,
removing repetitive information from customer lists, analysing data, providing marketing
assistance, providing search results and links (including paid listings and links),
processing credit and debit card payments and providing customer service. Those
parties will be bound by strict contractual provisions with us and will only have access to
personal information needed to perform their functions, and they may not use it for any
other purpose. Further, they must process the personal information in accordance with
this Notice and as permitted by the GDPR. From time to time, these other people and
organisations to whom we may pass your personal information may be outside the
European Economic Area. We will take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that
your personal information is treated securely and in accordance with this Notice and the
GDPR. - Protecting information
6.1 We have strict security measures to protect personal information.
6.2 We work to protect the security of your information during transmission by using Secure Sockets
Layer (SSL) software to encrypt information you input.
6.3 We reveal only the last five digits of your credit card numbers when confirming an order. Of
course, we transmit the entire credit card number to the appropriate credit card company during
order processing.
6.4 We maintain physical, electronic and procedural safeguards in connection with the collection,
storage and disclosure of personally identifiable customer information. Our security procedures
mean that we may occasionally request proof of identity before we disclose personal information
to you.
6.5 It is important for you to protect against unauthorised access to your password and to your
computer. Be sure to sign off when you finish using a shared computer. - The internet
7.1 If you communicate with us using the internet, we may occasionally email you about our services
and products. When you first give us personal information through the Website, we will normally
give you the opportunity to say whether you would prefer that we don’t contact you by email. You
can also always send us an email (at the address set out below) at any time if you change your
mind.
7.2 Please remember that communications over the internet, such as emails and webmails
(messages sent through a website), are not secure unless they have been encrypted. Your
communications may go through a number of countries before they are delivered – this is the
nature of the internet. We cannot accept responsibility for any unauthorised access or loss of
personal information that is beyond our control. - Cookies and other internet tracking technology
8.1 When we provide services, we want to make them easy, useful and reliable. This sometimes
involves placing small amounts of information on your computer, which is sent back to us at a later
time. These are called ‘cookies’. These cookies are listed in the table at clause 8.5. Some
websites don’t use cookies but use related technology for gaining information about website users
such as JavaScript, web beacons (also known as action tags or single-pixel gifs), and other
technologies to measure the effectiveness of their ads and to personalise advertising content.
Multiple cookies may be found in a single file depending on which browser you use.
8.2 Where applicable, this section of the Notice also relates to that technology but the term ‘cookie’ is
used throughout.
8.3 Some of these cookies are essential to services you’ve requested from us, whereas others are
used to improve services for you, for example through:
8.3.1 Letting you navigate between pages efficiently
8.3.2 Enabling a service to recognise your computer so you don’t have to give the same
information during one task
8.3.3 Recognising that you have already given a username and password so you don’t need
to enter it for every web page requested
8.3.4 Measuring how many people are using services, so they can be made easier to use and
that there is enough capacity to ensure they are fast
8.4 To learn more about cookies, you may wish to visit: www.allaboutcookies.org,

8.6.1 First party versus third party cookies – we set first party cookies ourselves; third party
cookies are set by other entities via our Website.
8.6.2 Session versus persistent cookies – session cookies only persist for the duration of that

Without these cookies services you have asked for, like shopping baskets or
e-billing, cannot be provided.
We include in this category cookies that are used only for electronic
communication. (The ICC doesn’t refer to these cookies, but the law is the
same.)
Note that cookies for which another person is the controller will never be
necessary for a service requested of you. On the other hand, if you’ve asked
another person to send a cookie on your behalf for an essential feature of
your website, that would be category 1.
Category 2 Performance These cookies collect information about how visitors use a website, for
instance which pages visitors go to most often, and if they get error
messages from web pages. This information is only used to improve how a
website works.
Category 3 Functionality These cookies allow the website to remember choices you make (such as
your user name, language or the region you are in) and provide enhanced,
more personal features. For instance, a website may be able to provide you
with local weather reports or traffic news by storing in a cookie the region in
which you are currently located. These cookies can also be used to
remember changes you have made to text size, fonts and other parts of web
pages that you can customise. They may also be used to provide services
you have asked for such as a live chat session.
Category 4 Targeting and
advertising
These cookies are used to deliver adverts more relevant to you and your
interests. They are also used to limit the number of times you see an
advertisement as well as help measure the effectiveness of the advertising
campaign. They are usually placed by advertising networks with the website
operator’s permission. They remember that you have visited a website and
this information is shared with other organisations such as advertisers. Quite
often targeting or advertising cookies will be linked to site functionality
provided by the other organisation.
8.7 As with any other information we may collect from you, we’ll work to protect the security of your
information during transmission by using by using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software to encrypt
information you input. - Links

accordance with this privacy notice, however as to cookies please see above clause Cookies and
other internet tracking technology.
9.2 We exclude all liability for loss that you may incur when interacting with this third-party advertising.
