Clients

Our clients provide us with personal information which they capture when an individual engages, purchases or otherwise receives a product or service from them. Our clients may share personal information with us, and we use this information with our clients to ensure that any service provided is fulfilled and marketing communications we deliver are appropriate and relevant.

The types of personal information our clients will disclose to us varies between clients. However, they typically include the following:

  • Name, address, email address and other personal characteristics such as date of birth.
  • The nature of an individual’s relationship with our client – for example, the type of products held or services received from our client.

How we use the data

Lawful basis for processing

To identify existing customers who might be interested in other products and services from our client, and to provide our clients with additional information about the types of products and services you might be interested in. As part of this process, we may match personal information provided by our clients with personal information provided by our data suppliers.

Consent / Legitimate Interest

 

 

Please note that our clients may capture other personal information about an individual that is not shared with Indicia Worldwide. Further details of this can be found on the privacy policy of that client.

Where consent is required for our use of an individual’s personal information, our data suppliers and/or clients will ask an individual to opt-in to this.

Data modelling

We use a range of statistical techniques to identify which products and services offered by our clients will be relevant to each individual. We do this by comparing the characteristics of individuals that have purchased products to the characteristics of people who haven’t yet purchased.

In addition, this type of information is used by our data suppliers who, in turn, build models to identify these characteristics. For example, by using anonymous research surveys, our data suppliers are able to identify certain features of the likely lifestyle of a consumer, based upon other information known about that individual. This information is passed to us and used as part of our own data modelling. A full list of the characteristics our suppliers provide to us is shown below:

  • Gender and age
  • Household composition
  • Most likely income
  • House type and size
  • Employment
  • Car ownership
  • Geography
  • Preferred shopping habits
  • Most likely holidays taken
  • Attitudes towards green issues
  • Attitudes towards lifestyle
  • Newspaper readership
  • Attitudes towards technology
  • Most likely types of internet usage
  • Most likely financial services held

 

Sharing personal information

We sometimes share your personal information with trusted third parties to support our business activities:

 

Here’s the policy we apply to those organisations to keep your data safe and protect your privacy:

  • We provide only the information they need to perform their specific services.
  • We carry out data protection due diligence on all our third parties whom we share personal information with.
  • If we store your data with a third party, we will ensure your data is encrypted and properly protected by the terms of our contract.
  • If storing your data outside of the UK and EU, we will always ensure we have carried out an assessment of that countries’ adequacy and put in place Standard Contractual Clauses.
  • All the third parties we use may only use your data for the exact purposes we specify in our contract with them, and we work closely with them to ensure that your privacy is respected and protected at all times.
  • If we stop using their services, any of your data held by them will either be deleted or rendered anonymous.

Examples of the kind of third parties we work with are as follows:

  • IT companies who support our websites and other business systems.
  • Direct marketing companies who help us manage our electronic communications with you.
  • Social media platforms to show you products that might interest you, for example LinkedIn, but this is based on either your marketing consent or your acceptance of cookies on our websites.
  • Data insight companies to ensure your details are up to date and accurate.

Sharing your data with third parties for their own purposes:

 

We will only do this in very specific circumstances, for example:

  • For fraud management, we may share information about fraudulent or potentially fraudulent activity which could include sharing data about individuals with law enforcement bodies.
  • We may also be required to disclose your personal information to the police or other enforcement, regulatory or Government body, in your country of origin or elsewhere, upon a valid request to do so. These requests are assessed on a case-by-case basis and take the privacy of our customers into consideration.

Processing personal information

We work closely with our Data suppliers to ensure the data we’re using is accurate and fit for purpose at all times. Our suppliers provide us with regular updates to the data they provide to ensure we can identify individuals who have opted out of receiving marketing communication from Indicia Worldwide and our clients.
