Personal Data We Collect

We may collect and process the following categories of personal data:

3

Special Category Personal Data

Certain requests may require you to provide information classified as "special category" personal data under UK data protection legislation.

This may include, for example, information concerning your health, medical requirements, allergies, dietary requirements or accessibility needs.

We will only process special category personal data where we have a lawful basis and an additional legal condition permitting us to do so. Where required, we will obtain your explicit consent.

You should only provide sensitive personal information where it is relevant and reasonably necessary for a service you have requested.

How We Use Your Personal Data

We may process your personal data for the following purposes:

5

Lawful Bases for Processing

Under UK data protection law, we rely upon one or more lawful bases when processing personal data. These may include:

Contract — where processing is necessary to enter into or perform a contract with you.

Legitimate interests — where processing is necessary for our legitimate business interests, provided those interests are not overridden by your fundamental rights and freedoms.

Consent — where you have given us consent to process your personal data for a particular purpose.

Legal obligation — where processing is necessary for us to comply with applicable law.

Where we rely on consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing undertaken before consent was withdrawn.

6

Sharing Your Personal Data

The nature of our services means that we may need to share certain personal data with third parties in order to fulfil your requests. Depending on the service requested, recipients may include:

7

International Transfers

The services provided by The London Edit may involve arrangements with organisations outside the United Kingdom.

Your personal data may therefore be transferred to, stored in or processed in countries outside the United Kingdom.

Where we make an international transfer that is subject to UK data protection restrictions, we will take steps required by applicable law to ensure an appropriate level of protection for your personal data. This may include reliance on UK adequacy regulations or appropriate contractual safeguards.

Where information must be provided to an overseas third party specifically to fulfil a request made by you, the transfer may also be made where otherwise permitted under applicable data protection legislation.

8

Data Security and Confidentiality

We take reasonable and appropriate technical and organisational measures designed to protect personal data against accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorised disclosure or access.

Access to personal data is restricted to individuals and service providers who reasonably require access for legitimate business purposes.

While we take appropriate measures to safeguard personal data, transmission of information over the internet cannot be guaranteed to be completely secure.

9

Data Retention

We retain personal data only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, including satisfying legal, regulatory, tax, accounting and reporting requirements and resolving potential disputes.

Different categories of personal data may therefore be subject to different retention periods.

When personal data is no longer reasonably required, we will delete, anonymise or securely dispose of it, subject to applicable legal requirements.

10

Member Accounts

Where you are provided with access to a member account or private area of our website, you are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your login credentials.

You should notify us promptly if you believe your account or login credentials have been accessed or used without authorisation.

We may process information concerning account access and activity where reasonably necessary for authentication, security and administration of our member services.

11

Cookies

Our website may use cookies and similar technologies.

Cookies necessary for the operation and security of the website may be used without consent where permitted by law.

Where required by applicable law, non-essential cookies, including certain analytics or advertising technologies, will not be placed on your device unless you have provided the necessary consent.

12

Marketing Communications

Where permitted by law, we may use your personal data to communicate with you about The London Edit, our services, guides, events or other relevant updates.

Where consent is legally required, we will obtain your consent before sending such communications.

You may opt out of direct marketing communications at any time by following the unsubscribe instructions contained in the communication or by contacting us.

Opting out of marketing communications will not prevent us from sending necessary service or administrative communications relating to your membership, account, requests or transactions.

14

Complaints

If you have concerns about the way we process your personal data, we encourage you to contact us first so that we can investigate your concerns.

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO), the UK's data protection supervisory authority.

15

Third-Party Websites

Our website may contain links to websites or services operated by third parties.

We do not control those third parties and are not responsible for their privacy practices. We encourage you to review the privacy information provided by any third-party website or service before providing personal data to it.

16

Children's Personal Data

Our website and membership offering are not intended to be used independently by children.

However, our clients may ask us to provide or coordinate family-related services involving children, including childcare, education, travel or other family arrangements.

Where we process children's personal data in connection with such a request, we will seek to process only information reasonably necessary to provide the relevant service and will do so in accordance with applicable data protection law.
