POLICY STATEMENT

 

Admiral Taverns (Chester) Limited (‘Admiral Taverns’) takes your privacy seriously and this policy sets out the principles governing our use of the personal data you provide to us. This policy describes how Admiral Taverns and its group of companies (including Pub Partnership Acquisitions Limited) use cookies and personal data obtained from you when you visit our websites (our Digital Applications), provide correspondence to us, by telephone and when you visit one of our pubs.

 

INTRODUCTION

 

We are the data controller in respect of any personal data we collect about you. Our data registration number is Z3027006. Pub Partnership Acquisitions Limited (PPAL) is registered separately with data registration number ZA665741. Further information on this and our obligations to you can be obtained from the Information Commissioners Office.

 

INFORMATION WE COLLECT

 

When you register your interest in running one of our properties through our websites or at one of our events, we ask for certain information. We may also collect and process information you provide to us by other means, such as by telephone or in other correspondence. The information collected depends on the services you use and includes, but is not limited to, the following personal data:

• Name (Including Title)

• Date Of Birth

• Postal Address

• Email Address

• Telephone Number

• Gender

 

When you visit or use our Digital Applications we automatically collect certain information from you including:

 

• Location Data

• Domain Name Requests

• Server Log Details

• The Time You Spent On Each Page

• IP Address

 

Sensitive personal data, such as your racial or ethnic origin or physical or mental health details, may be shared during the course of our trading relationship; however this data is neither collected nor processed unless it is done so at your request (e.g. to assist with a beer delivery).

 

CCTV Admiral Taverns has CCTV systems installed in most of our tenanted and leased pubs in order to comply with our obligations under the Licensing Act 2003. Any CCTV imagery and data processed at those pubs is done so by the licensee of each property in connection with their business and Admiral Taverns is therefore not the data processor of that data.

 

However, PPAL has its own CCTV systems installed in their portfolio of pubs in order to comply with their obligations under the Licensing Act 2003 and to ensure the safety of customers and staff. If CCTV is present in one of those pubs, signage will be displayed in prominent positions advising of this. When you visit one of PPALs pubs, you may be captured on our CCTV systems which may cover the internal and external areas of those pubs.

 

Images captured on the CCTV systems will not be kept by PPAL for any longer than 60 days unless PPAL is required to do so by the conditions imposed by the premises licence for a pub, in connection with an incident or where the images are required for civil or criminal proceedings. PPAL will only disclose CCTV images when required to do so by a government organisation, statutory authority or the police when assisting them with their enquiries. PPAL will not release CCTV images to the media or publish them on the internet, and any CCTV images are captured and stored on computer systems based in the UK. PPAL will not transfer this data outside of the UK and the EU.

 

USE OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA We may use your personal information for any or all of the following purposes:

 

• To provide our services to you

• To improve and/or personalise our services

• To respond to your enquiries

• For marketing purposes specific to an enquiry made by you

• Where you have agreed we may do so, to send you details of our offers and/or promotions, products, news and other services (including those of our selected partners) that we think may be of interest to you

• Analysis and research purposes

• To meet our legal obligations and/or establishing, exercising or defending our legal rights

• To help operate, maintain and improve our Digital Applications

• In the event of a sale of a property, we may be required to transfer tenant information relating to the relevant business being sold.

• To comply with Government guidelines issued for the hospitality and leisure industry regarding the COVID-19 pandemic, which includes the requirement for contact details of customers to be collected and stored for 21 days to assist the NHS Test and Trace programme

 

We may also record or monitor calls, emails and other correspondence for training purposes to improve our services and to detect and prevent fraud.

If you are not satisfied with the response issued or believe the processing of your personal data is not in accordance with the law, you may wish to complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ico.org.uk/make-a-complaint).
