Basis for processing your information

We process your personal information on the following basis:

Legitimate interests

  • Where the processing enables us to enhance, modify, personalise or otherwise improve our services / communications for the benefit of our customers.
  • Where processing enables us to service a business account which you are associated with, for example if you are an employee of one of our business clients.
  • You have expressed an interest in doing business with Progressive CRM Ltd.
  • To identify and prevent fraud.
  • To better understand how people interact with our websites.
  • To provide communications which we think will be of interest to you.
  • To determine the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns and advertising.

When we process your personal information for our legitimate interests, we will consider and balance any potential impact on you and your rights under data protection and any other relevant law. Our legitimate business interests do not automatically override your interests – we will not use your personal data for activities where our interests are overridden by the impact on you (unless we have your consent or are otherwise required or permitted to by law).

You have the right to object to this processing if you wish. Please keep in mind that if you object this may affect our ability to carry out services for you.

Sharing your information

We may share your personal information with third parties in the following circumstances:

  • Business partners, suppliers and sub-contractors for the performance of any contract we enter into with them or you.
  • Analytics and search engine providers that assist us in the improvement and optimisation of our site. Your personal information is generally shared in a form that does not directly identify you.
  • If required in order to obtain professional advice.
  • If we are under a duty to disclose or share your personal information in order to comply with any legal obligation, or in order to enforce or apply our terms of use and other agreements; or to protect the rights, property, or safety of Progressive CRM Ltd.

Where is your information processed

Your information will be mainly processed by our staff within the United Kingdom ("UK") with it being stored in our systems and databases located in the European Union ("EU").

However, as part of the services offered to you, the information which you provide to us may be transferred to countries outside the EU. By way of example, this may happen if any of our servers are from time to time located in a country outside of the EU, where required. These countries may not have similar data protection laws to the UK. By submitting your personal data, you’re agreeing to this transfer, storing or processing. If we transfer your information outside of the EU in this way, we will take steps to ensure that appropriate security measures are taken with the aim of ensuring that your privacy rights continue to be protected as outlined in this Policy.
