HOW TO CONTACT US
Please read the following carefully to understand our views and practices regarding your personal data and how we will treat it.
Personal data, or personal information, means any information about an individual from which that person can be identified. It does not include data where the identity has been removed (anonymous data).
DATA WE COLLECT FROM YOU OR ABOUT YOU AND OUR SOURCES OF THAT DATA
We may collect, use, store and transfer different kinds of personal data from you which we have grouped together as follows:
Identity Data includes first name, last name, username or similar identifier, company/organisation, day and month of birth and confirmation you are over 16.
Contact Data includes postal address, billing address, delivery address, email address and telephone numbers.
Financial Data includes payment card details.

For example, we may aggregate Usage Data to calculate the percentage of users accessing a specific website feature. However, if we combine or connect Aggregated Data with personal data so that it can directly or indirectly identify a person, we treat the combined data as personal data which will be used in accordance with this privacy policy.
We do not collect any Special Categories of Personal Data (as defined under GDPR) (this includes details about race or ethnicity, religious or philosophical beliefs, sex life, sexual orientation, political opinions, trade union membership, information about health, and genetic and biometric data). Nor do we collect any information about criminal convictions and offences.
If you fail to provide personal data
Where we need to collect personal data by law, or under the terms of a contract we have with you, and you fail to provide that data when requested, we may not be able to perform the contract we have or are trying to enter into with you (for example, to provide goods or services). In this case, we may have to cancel a product or service you have with us, but we will notify you if this is the case at the time.

We do 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 can obtain further information about how we assess our legitimate interests against any potential impact on you in respect of specific activities by contacting us.
Performance of Contract means processing your data where it is necessary for the performance of a contract to which you are a party or to take steps at your request before entering into such a contract.
Comply with a legal obligation means processing your personal data where it is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation that we are subject to.

For example, we will only process your personal data for marketing purposes if we have your consent to do so.
We will only use your personal data for the purposes for which we collected it, unless we reasonably consider that we need to use it for another reason and that reason is compatible with the original purpose. If you wish to get an explanation as to how the processing for the new purpose is compatible with the original purpose, please contact us.
If we need to use your personal data for an unrelated purpose, we will notify you and we will explain the legal basis which allows us to do so.

As mentioned above, we would like to send and present you with information about Alex, his racing team, events, and our products/services and its partners which may be of interest to you.
We may use your Identity, Contact, Technical, Usage and Profile Data to form a view on what we think you may want or need, or what may be of interest to you. This is how we decide which products, services and offers may be relevant for you (we call this marketing).
We will only send and present you with marketing communications if you would like us to. You will receive marketing communications from us if you have requested information from us by ticking the relevant boxes or purchased goods or services from us and you have not opted out of receiving that marketing.
We will get your express opt-in consent before we share your personal data with any third party for marketing purposes.
You can ask us to stop sending you marketing messages at any time by following the opt-out links on any marketing message sent to you, or by contacting us at any time.
Where you opt out of receiving these marketing messages, this will not apply to personal data provided to us as a result of a product/service purchase or experience or any other transaction with us.
DISCLOSURE OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA
We may share your personal data with selected third parties in accordance with this policy, including:
with the operator of our webstore at the applicable Website and who would be contracting with you should you wish to purchase any products via the webstore;
with our partners, but only if you have consented to this and then only to those of our partners for whom you have given consent.
service providers (for example, IT services or CRM services), business partners, suppliers and sub-contractors for the performance of any contract we enter into with you, but also when sending out marketing communications;
professional advisers acting as processors or joint controllers including lawyers, bankers, auditors and insurers who provide consultancy, banking, legal, insurance and accounting services;
any member of our group, which means our subsidiaries affiliates;
analytics and search engine providers that assist us in the improvement and optimisation of the Websites;
government or other law enforcement agencies, in connection with the investigation of unlawful activities or for other legal reasons (this may include your location information); or
a third party where all or substantially all of our assets are acquired by such third party, in which case personal data held by us, including your personal data, will be one of the transferred assets (however, we will let you know before this happens).
We require all third parties to respect the security of your personal data and to treat it in accordance with the law. We do not allow our third-party service providers to use your personal data for their own purposes and only permit them to process your personal data for specified purposes and in accordance with our instructions.
WHERE WE STORE YOUR PERSONAL DATA
Many of our external third parties are based outside the EU and UK so their processing of your personal data may involve a transfer of data outside the EU and UK.
Whenever we transfer your personal data out of the EU and UK, we ensure a similar degree of protection is afforded to it by ensuring at least one of the following safeguards is implemented:
We will only transfer your personal data to countries that have been deemed to provide an adequate level of protection for personal data.
Where we use certain service providers, we may use specific contracts approved for use in the UK which give personal data the same protection it has in the UK.
If you want further information on the specific mechanism used by us when transferring your personal data out of the UK, please contact us here.
SECURITY
We have put in place appropriate security measures that are designed to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used or accessed in an unauthorised way, altered or disclosed. In addition, we limit access to your personal data to those employees, agents, contractors and other third parties who have a business need to know. They will only process your personal data on our instructions and they are subject to a duty of confidentiality.
We have put in place procedures to deal with any suspected personal data breach and will notify you and any applicable regulator of a breach where we are legally required to do so.
Where you have chosen (or we have given you) access details and/or a password which enable you to access your Website profile, you are responsible for keeping these access details and password confidential. We ask you not to share your access details and password with anyone.
Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure. Accordingly, we cannot guarantee the security of your data transmitted to the Websites and you acknowledge that any transmission is at your own risk.
RETAINING PERSONAL DATA
We will only retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which we collected it, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, regulatory, tax, accounting, or reporting requirements. We may retain your personal data for a longer period in the event of a complaint or if we reasonably believe there is a prospect of litigation in respect to our relationship with you. To determine the appropriate retention period for personal data, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure of your personal data, the purposes for which we process your personal data and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal, regulatory, tax, accounting, reporting or other requirements.
In some circumstances we may anonymise your personal data so that it can no longer be associated with you, in which case we may use such information without further notice to you.
Even if you request that we erase your data, we may still need to keep it (please see below) or may keep it in a form that doesn’t identify you. Unless you have an account on our Websites (eg to gain behind the scenes access) or you have agreed that we may use your personal data for marketing purposes (for example, to provide you with team updates and other marketing communications), we will only keep your personal data for six (6) years after you have made a purchase from us or via the Websites or have attended one of our events (as applicable). Please note that where you make a purchase through a webpage which is operated by a third part, or if you communicate with us using a third party product or service, you should refer to their privacy policies for further information as to how your data is handled and how long it is kept.
YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS UNDER THE GDPR
If you are a EU or UK resident, under GDPR, you have the following rights with regard to your personal data:
Access. You have the right to access data we hold about you (commonly known as a "data subject access request"). This enables you to receive a copy of the personal data we hold about you and to check that we are lawfully processing it.
Correction. You have the right to request that we rectify any personal data that we hold about you (unless we have the legal right to retain it). This enables you to have any incomplete or inaccurate data we hold about you corrected, though we may need to verify the accuracy of the new data you provide to us.
Erasure. You have the right to request that we delete personal data that we hold about you. This enables you to ask us to delete or remove personal data where there is no good reason for us continuing to process it. You also have the right to ask us to delete or remove your personal data where you have successfully exercised your right to object to processing (see below), where we may have processed your information unlawfully or where we are required to erase your personal data to comply with local law. Note, however, that we may not always be able to comply with your request of erasure for specific legal reasons which will be notified to you, if applicable, at the time of your request
Restriction. You also have the right to restrict us from processing your personal data in the following scenarios:
If you want us to establish the data's accuracy.
Where our use of the data is unlawful but you do not want us to erase it.
Where you need us to hold the data even if we no longer require it as you need it to establish, exercise or defend legal claims.
You have objected to our use of your data but we need to verify whether we have overriding legitimate grounds to use it.
Data portability. You have the right to obtain personal data we hold about you. We will provide to you, or a third party you have chosen, your personal data, in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format. Note that this right only applies to automated information which you initially provided consent for us to use or where we used the information to perform a contract with you.
Object /change of preferences. You have a right to request that we stop processing your personal data where we are relying on a legitimate interest (or those of a third party) and there is something about your particular situation which makes you want to object to processing on this ground as you feel it impacts on your fundamental rights and freedoms. You have the right to object where we are processing your personal data for direct marketing purposes. In some cases, we may demonstrate that we have compelling legitimate grounds to process your information which override your rights and freedoms.
Withdraw consent at any time. You have a right to request that we stop processing your personal data where we are relying on consent. For example, if you have given your consent to receive team updates or other marketing communications, but have changed your mind, you have the ability to opt out from receiving such communications going forward by contacting us using the details provided below or by clicking the relevant link in any communications you receive. However, this will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before you withdraw your consent. If you withdraw your consent, we may not be able to provide certain products or services to you. We will advise you if this is the case at the time you withdraw your consent.
Complaints. If for any reason you are not happy with the way that we have handled your personal data, please contact us. If you are in the UK and are still not happy, you have the right to make a complaint to the Information Commissioner’s Office, the UK regulator for data protection issues (www.ico.org.uk).
Please note that if you ask us to stop processing your personal data in certain ways or erase your personal data, and this type of processing of data is needed to facilitate your use of the Websites or the provision of products or services to you, you may not be able to use the Websites or receive products or services from us as you did before. This does not include your right to object to direct marketing, which can be exercised at any time without restrictions. Please allow at least ten working days for your request to be actioned.
You will not have to pay a fee to access your personal data (or to exercise any of the other rights).
We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access your personal data (or to exercise any of your other rights). This is a security measure to ensure that personal data is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it. We may also contact you to ask you for further information in relation to your request to speed up our response.
Please note that the rights mentioned above do not extend to non-personal data. If you would like to exercise any of the rights mentioned above, please contact us here.
