1. Client, supplier and collaborator data.

Visitors to my website are not obliged to provide personal data.

Nevertheless, anyone interested in my services can contact me via the contact information provided, and some personal data has to be collected in order to establish communication.

The legal basis for processing your data is to perform the services you request or to take necessary steps prior to fulfilling that request and complying with legal requirements.

I collect, store and use such personal data for the purposes of issuing a quote, to provide translation, copywriting, revision or consulting services that you request or to comply with legal requirements.

I do not use your personal data for marketing purposes.

Categories of data subjects

I hold data on clients, suppliers, collaborators, data processors and potential clients for legitimate interests.

Categories of personal data

Personal data collected may include your name, postal address, email address, telephone number, and ID or tax number, payment and delivery conditions, financial and bank account details.

The data in question will be retained throughout the business relationship only, or for the length of time stipulated to comply with legal and tax obligations.

Retention of personal data

Data relating to quotes will be retained for up to six months. In cases of work carried out, I am obliged to retain your personal data for six years to comply with tax obligations. I will delete email communication after six years.

Third party access

If I send a text for revision or editing to a colleague, that text will be anonymised, so that your personal data will not appear, or the colleague will be asked to sign a confidentiality agreement if necessary. They will be advised of their legal obligations in relation to confidentiality and professional secrecy.

Other parties may have access to your personal data for administrative purposes, including my website and email hosting services, and SaaS project management system. All these parties are GDPR-compliant (please also see the section on security measures below).

You are entitled to access, modify, erase or contest the personal data that I hold, in accordance with the abovementioned EU regulation. Please send your request directly to me using the contact provided above, and I will act upon this as soon as possible, within a maximum of one month from the date of your request.

Please contact me on denise@nysatranslations.com if you have any concerns about how I process your personal data. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory body in Scotland or in the country where you live.

Security measures

I take all possible precautionary measures to guarantee that your personal data is safeguarded.

Updates to computers and devices: The equipment used for storing and processing personal data is updated as frequently as possible.

Malware: Anti-virus software is installed on the equipment used for storing and processing personal data, to prevent the theft or destruction of this information. This anti-virus software is regularly updated

Firewall: Firewalls are in place on all devices used for storing or processing personal data, to avoid remote unlawful third-party access.

Back up: Personal data is periodically backed up on a device other than that used on a day-to-day basis. The copy is stored in a secure place, separate from the computer containing the original files, so that personal data can be recovered in the event of loss or damage.
Should this back up be done via electronic methods, an encrypted method is used to guarantee the confidentiality of the personal data, in the event of unlawful third-party access.

Technical measures: All electronic systems in use for storing or processing personal information are password protected.

Breaches of personal data

In the event of a security breach of personal data, due to theft or unlawful access for example, I will notify the UK Data Protection Agency within 72 hours of this security breach.
This will include all of the information necessary to clarify the circumstances under which this happened. Notification will be done electronically via the UK Data Protection Agency online portal: https://ico.org.uk
