Privacy Policy to let you know:

when and why we share it with other organisations, including the types of organisations involved;

to allow you to participate in interactive features on our website, when you choose to do so; and
where we have a legal right or duty to use or disclose your information (for example in relation to an investigation by a public authority or in a legal dispute).
Data protection laws require us to state our legal reason for processing your personal data.
Holyrood relies on your consent to send you marketing communications. You can withdraw your consent to receive these communications at any time by using the unsubscribe button included in the communications sent to you.
Holyrood also collects and uses your personal data because it is necessary for:
the pursuit of our legitimate interests (as set out below);
the purposes of complying with our duties and exercising our rights under a contract for the sale of goods to a consumer; or
complying with our legal and regulatory obligations.
The normal legal basis for processing personal data is that it is necessary for the legitimate interests of Holyrood, including:
selling and supplying goods to our customers and consumers;
protecting consumers, employees and other individuals and maintaining their safety, health and welfare;
promoting, marketing and advertising our products;
understanding our consumers’ behaviour, activities, preferences, and needs;
improving existing products and developing new products;
handling consumer and customer contacts, queries, complaints, or disputes; and
preventing, investigating and detecting crime, fraud, or anti-social behaviour and prosecuting offenders.
You have a number of rights under the data protection laws in relation to the way we process your personal data, namely:
to access your data;
to have your data corrected if it is inaccurate or incomplete;
in certain circumstances, to have your data deleted or removed;
in certain circumstances, to restrict the processing of your data;
a right of data portability, namely to obtain and reuse your data for your own purposes across different services;
to object to direct marketing;
not to be subject to automated decision making (including profiling), where it produces a legal effect or a similarly significant effect on you; and
to claim compensation for damages caused by a breach of the data protection laws.
If you wish to exercise any of these rights, please contact askus@holyrooddistillery.co.uk.
To effectively fulfil our obligations to you, and to provide you with certain benefits, we use a number of trusted and reliable third parties to carry out functions which involve the processing of your personal data. These include IT, delivery and marketing service providers, more specifically:
when you order products from our online shop, your details may be shared with our logistics fulfilment partner, who will process your orders;
we use marketing service providers to administer services on our behalf, such as sending communications to our consumers, administering any promotions or ballots which we run;
other agencies and fulfilment partners to administer events, competitions and brand programmes that you have opted into.
Some of the third party service providers we use may be based outside of the European Economic Area, but we will only transfer personal data to these service providers where we are satisfied that adequate levels of protection and security controls are in place to protect your personal data. We impose contractual
obligations on service providers relating to data protection and security which means that they can only use your personal data to provide services to Holyrood or to you, and no other purpose.
We may provide information to others (such as governmental or law enforcement agencies) in the good faith belief that such action is necessary to: (i) enforce or apply terms and conditions; (ii) comply with any legal claims raised against Holyrood; (iii) protect the rights, property or safety of Holyrood; or (iv) protect the rights, property or safety of the public.
If Holyrood becomes involved in a sale, merger, acquisition, bankruptcy or other transaction involving a corporate change to some or all of our assets, user information, including personal information collected from you through your use of our Website, could be included in the transferred assets. Should such an event occur, we will use reasonable means to notify you, either through email and/or a prominent notice on Holyrood’s website.
We will not retain your personal data for longer than necessary for the purposes set out in this Policy. Different retention periods will apply to different types of data. If you wish to have your data deleted or removed please contact askus@holyrooddistillery.co.uk.
Holyrood is committed to keeping your personal data safe and secure. To prevent unauthorised access, maintain data accuracy and ensure the correct usage of personal data, we monitor and adjust our physical, electronic and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the personal data we collect online.
