3. The Data Protection Principles
This Policy aims to ensure compliance with the UK-GDPR. The UK-GDPR sets out the following principles with which any party handling personal data must comply. All personal data must be:
3.1 Processed lawfully, fairly, and in a transparent manner in relation to the data subject.
3.2 Collected for specified, explicit, and legitimate purposes and not be further processed in a manner that is incompatible with those purposes. Further processing for archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes or statistical purposes shall not be considered to be incompatible with the initial purposes.
3.3 Adequate, relevant, and limited to what is necessary in relation to the purposes
for which it is processed.
3.4 Accurate and, where necessary, kept up to date. Every reasonable step must be taken to ensure that personal data that is inaccurate, having regard to the purposes for which it is processed, is erased, or rectified without delay.
3.5 Kept in a form which permits identification of data subjects for no longer than is necessary for the purposes for which the personal data is processed. Personal data may be stored for longer periods insofar as the personal data will be processed solely for archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes, or statistical purposes, subject to implementation of the appropriate technical and organisational measures required by the UK-GDPR in order to safeguard the rights and freedoms of the data subject.
3.6 Processed in a manner that ensures appropriate security of the personal data, including protection against unauthorised or unlawful processing and against accidental loss, destruction, or damage, using appropriate technical or organisational measures.

4. The Rights of Data Subjects
One of the key rights of data subjects in the UK-GDPR is the right to object to how their data is processed based on legitimate interests and direct marketing (including profiling). Please refer to Parts 20-22 for more information.  The Company undertakes no direct e-mail, postal or telephone marketing activity to promote products, etc., to individual customers. It may, however, undertake marketing activity to promote products to businesses based on Our legitimate interests and in accordance with Our marketing strategy.
The UK-GDPR sets out the following rights applicable to data subjects (please refer to the parts of this policy indicated for further details):
4.1 The right to be informed (Part 14).
4.2 The right of access (Part 15;
4.3 The right to rectification (Part 16;
4.4 The right to erasure (also known as the ‘right to be forgotten’) (Part 17);
4.5 The right to restrict processing (Part 18);
4.6 The right to data portability (Part 19);
4.7 The right to object (Part 20); and
4.8 Rights with respect to automated decision-making and profiling (Parts 21 and 22).

5. Lawful, Fair, and Transparent Data Processing
5.1 The UK-GDPR seeks to ensure that personal data is processed lawfully, fairly, and transparently, without adversely affecting the rights of the data subject. The UK-GDPR states that processing of personal data shall be lawful if at least one of the following applies:
5.1.1 The data subject has given consent to the processing of their personal data for one or more specific purposes;
5.1.2 The processing is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party, or in order to take steps at the request of the data subject prior to entering into a contract with them;
5.1.3 The processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which the data controller is subject;
5.1.4 The processing is necessary to protect the vital interests of the data subject or of another natural person;
5.1.5 The processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the data controller; or
5.1.6 The processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by the data controller or by a third party, except where such interests are overridden by the fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject which require protection of personal data, in particular where the data subject is a child.
Please refer to the CKB Ltd ® Website Privacy & Cookies Policy/ Wholesale Gifts Tomorrow Website Privacy & Cookies Policy for more information on the lawful basis for the Company’s data processing activities.
5.2 The Company does not process “special category data” (also known as “sensitive personal data”) on its website as defined under the UK-GDPR. “Special category data” includes, for example, data concerning the data subject’s race, ethnicity, politics, religion, trade union membership, genetics, biometrics (if used for ID purposes), health, sex life, or sexual orientation. Employees of the Company should refer to the applicable Employee Data Protection Policy.

Should a data subject wish to enquire further about details of third parties the Company works with, etc., please contact the Data Protection Officer at Unit 5, Business Centre East, Fifth Avenue, Letchworth Garden City, Herts, SG6 2TS.

6. Consent
If consent is relied upon as the lawful basis for collecting, holding, and/or processing any personal data, the following shall apply:
6.1 Consent is a clear indication by the data subject that they agree to the processing of their personal data. Such a clear indication may take the form of a statement or a positive action. Silence, pre-ticked boxes, or inactivity are unlikely to amount to consent.
6.2 Where consent is given in a document which includes other matters, the section dealing with consent must be kept clearly separate from such other matters.
6.3 Data subjects are free to withdraw consent at any time and it must be made easy for them to do so. If a data subject withdraws consent, their request must be honoured promptly.
6.4 If personal data is to be processed for a different purpose that is incompatible with the purpose or purposes for which that personal data was originally collected that was not disclosed to the data subject when they first provided their consent, consent to the new purpose or purposes may need to be obtained from the data subject.
6.5 In all cases where consent is relied upon as the lawful basis for collecting, holding, and/or processing personal data, records must be kept of all consents obtained in order to ensure that the Company can demonstrate its compliance with consent requirements.
