Contract

Some of this data is to enable us to fulfill our contract with you.
The legal basis for this is a contract. This includes:

– Your bank details (if you are a sole trader)
– Your website passwords
– Your clothing sizes for ‘man packs’
– Your email address
– Your mobile number
– Your name
– Your home address (if you are a sole trader)

We process this information for a number of reasons. These include:

– To accept and process payments
– To make your account secure
– To send you the correct products
– To communicate, including acknowledgements and invoices
– To contact you when we deliver your order
– To correctly process your orders
– To track credit ratings to ensure your payments are secure
– To ensure we deliver to the right place

We have to share some of this data with other persons outside of CMT Equipment Ltd, to complete the contract. For example:
– We share mobile numbers with our delivery partners so they can call before delivery.
– We share payment details with our accountants so your statements are correct.

This data is held securely on CMT Equipment’s internal servers, with access restricted on a risk-assessed basis; for example, although we process your card details, it is impossible for any staff member to access them as they are not stored.

We store information only as long as necessary to complete the contract we have with you. All financial data is stored for three years in line with HMRC requirements.

– Your IP address (if you order online)
– Your job role/position
– Phone call recordings

– Your time and date of visit (if you visit our premises)
– Any details you provide on the website chat
– Cookies on your computer
– Details of how you use the website, including how you accessed it (external links)

We process this data for a number of reasons. These include:
– To ensure we have your correct details
– To help us build a relationship with you
– To ensure security
– For health and safety reasons
– To protect our website from hackers
– To ensure your details are safe
– To help us offer you relevant service options
– For training purposes

– To resolve IT or customer services problems

This data is held on CMT Equipment’s internal servers, in password-protected cloudbased storage systems or in the back end of our website. Access to this data is restricted by job role; for example, only our website team can access your website chat.

This data is held only as long as necessary for the purpose; for example, CCTV footage of you visiting our premises is destroyed after ninety days.

You are not obliged to allow us to process this information; however, it may be very difficult for us to deliver our promised level of service without it.

Email dataprotection@cmt.co.uk to discuss restricting processing of this data.

Anonymised Data

Wherever possible we pseudonymise, anonymise or encrypt your information, for example your website password.

If we use your data for training purposes, we will anonymise (hide) your personally identifiable information so you cannot be tracked.

We may sometimes use anonymised data to measure how we can improve our website, for example by using software such as Google Analytics to see how much time website users spend on specific pages.
