Privacy Policy
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)
Vivant Limited is committed to processing personal data in accordance with its responsibilities under the GDPR. This requires that personal data shall be processed lawfully, fairly, securely, and in a transparent manner in relation to individuals, and that it is collected for specified, explicit and legitimate purposes and not further processed in a manner that is incompatible with those purposes.
Our work in HR consulting requires us to collect personal data to provide our services; this is restricted to those data needed to execute contracts with our clients. Shortly after the end of each contract these data are normally destroyed. Exceptionally, we will retain data for longer term research purposes, and explicit permission will be sought and obtained when we do this.
As part of normal business activities, we also acquire personal data about our employees, our clients, and our suppliers. This is restricted to those data needed to conduct normal business relationships, and to meet legal and contractual requirements.
If any of our working colleagues, or individuals working with our clients or our suppliers, wish to see any data that we hold about them, we will provide it in a timely manner. If any inaccuracies are identified, we will correct them.
