Our legal basis for processing your personal information

Our legal basis for processing your personal information

• The processing is necessary to meet contractual obligations into which you have entered as a customer, worker or supplier.
• The lawful justification for sending you marketing communications about our business, services and news is because we have a legitimate business interest for your data to be used for this specific purpose. You are in complete control of your data and can choose not to receive these messages, either when you first provide your data, or in every communication we send you afterwards

Disclosing your personal data

Your information will be held and used by the following parties under our control:

1. To workers who deliver our services
2. Third parties who provide a service to us where there is a legal obligation to do so.

We shall keep your personal data within HayesFuels.com and our trusted third parties except where disclosure is required by law, for example to government bodies such as HMRC and law enforcement agencies.

How long we keep your personal information

We only keep your personal information for as long as we need to, so that we can use it for the reasons described above. Where your information is no longer required or is no longer relevant, we will ensure it is disposed of securely.

The actual period for which we store your personal information will vary depending on the type of personal information and how it is used. For example:

• To make sure that you do not receive marketing from us after you have told us to stop sending it, we need to keep a record of that instruction with your contact details. We shall hold that information until you tell us otherwise.
• Where necessary, we shall keep your personal data for as long as required to do so by law; and where required to establish, exercise or defend our legal rights.
