Finally.......
In 2018 the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) becomes enforceable.
Like just about every small business in the UK, Rainbow Red has been hard at work updating its Privacy Policy to reflect our commitment to:
- meeting our data protection obligations
- being transparent about how we collect and use data
- ensuring data privacy is protected
By
the very nature of our industry, we often have access to very personal
information, and value the trust that clients have in us to respect their need
for privacy and confidentiality.
Our Privacy Policy sets out:
- What GDPR is
- Who is responsible for information we hold
- What data we collect
- How we collect and process it lawfully
- Why we collect and process your personal data
- What it is used for
- How it is kept safe
- How long it is retained for
- How we dispose of it
- What would happen to the information if the company were sold or shut down
- How we ask for your consent to be contacted using your existing data, and how you can opt out of being contacted by us
- Your legal rights regarding the data we hold about you
- How you can contact us with queries, requests for changes or complaints

Rainbow Red may change this policy from time to time
by updating this document, and will announce these changes via Rainbow Red’s Blog,
Facebook page and Twitter account. There
will also be a link to our Privacy Policy in our emails, and our Terms and
Conditions document.
Rainbow Red has been in business since 2011, and we've communicated with an awful lot of people since then - which means we have accumulated an awful lot of data!
We are currently busy working to dispose of information that does not comply with our revised Privacy Policy.
In addition, GDPR requires us to ask you whether you would like us to keep in touch with you (and hang onto your data), and if so how and how often.
As there's only a VERY small team of us, we still have a lot of people to contact to ask for consent to retain their information, which means it could take some time before we get to you.
So thank you for your patience!
