Privacy policy

www.sproutandgherkin.com and www.sproutword.online (both domains pointing to the same website) are provided by Sprout and Gherkin Ltd.

The personal data we collect from you is restricted to that required for core business purposes, for example name and address details for supply of goods.

The legal basis for processing personal data is that personal data is only processed for accounts or records, and advertising, marketing and public relations solely in relation to our own business activity.

We will not sell or rent your data to third parties, or share your data with third parties for marketing purposes. We will share your data if we are required to do so by law – for example, by court order, or to prevent fraud or other crime.

We will only retain your personal data for as long as required by law for taxation purposes.

Our services are not designed for, or intentionally targeted at, children 13 years of age or younger. We do not intentionally collect or maintain data about anyone under the age of 13.

We design, build and run our systems to make sure that your data is as safe as possible at all stages, both while it’s processed and when it’s stored.

We also make sure that any third parties that we deal with keep all personal data they process on our behalf secure.

You have the right to request information about how your personal data is processed; a copy of that personal data; that anything inaccurate in your personal data is corrected immediately.

You can also raise an objection about how your personal data is processed; request that your personal data is erased if there is no longer a justification for it; or ask that the processing of your personal data is restricted in certain circumstances.

If you have any of these requests, get in contact with us

We may change this privacy policy. In that case, the ‘last updated’ date at the bottom of this page will also change. Any changes to this privacy policy will apply to you and your data immediately. If these changes affect how your personal data is processed, we will take reasonable steps to let you know.

If you have a question about anything in this privacy notice or you think that your personal data has been misused or mishandled then use the Contact Us form on our website. You can also make a complaint to the Information Commissioner, which is an independent regulator.
