Where we process special categories of information relating to your racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious and philosophical beliefs, trade union membership, biometric data or sexual orientation, we will always obtain your explicit consent to those activities unless this is not required by law or the information is required to protect your health in an emergency.

To enable us to pay you by bank transfer, and to ensure that all payments (including pension payments, tax, etc.) are correct. - To ensure the effective management of the company, including marketing purposes;

Ways in which we access and store this data:
- On computers in the company offices, access to which is password protected.
- Cloud storage systems (Google Suite, Dropbox, etc.) access to which is password protected.

- Photographs of you at work may be used in on-line and paper marketing, including websites, leaflets, Facebook, Twitter, etc.
- CCTV data is shared with Kent Police to assist in the investigation of criminal activity and may also be accessed by the CCTV system maintenance company in the course of updates or system maintenance work.
As a company pursuing retail activities, we may sometimes need to process your data to pursue our legitimate business interests, for example to prevent fraud, administrative purposes or reporting potential crimes. We will not process your data where these interests are overridden by a legal right you may have for the data to be withheld.
How long we keep this data:
We keep data for as long as it is current (i.e. while you are employed by the company) and for as long after the departure of an employee as we are legally required. This is generally 3 years for pay-related data, 2 years for evidence of right to work in the UK and 6 years for pension data. CCTV data is routinely deleted and overwritten, after the legal minimum of 30 days, but may be kept longer for legal and operational purposes.
Consent
When you fill out an application form for employment and give us information about yourself, we collect, process and store that information in the legitimate interests of our business, without your rights being overridden. The updated Application Form (May 2018) contains this information.
Most information we collect from you is required by law or for the legitimate running of our business. Where we collect any other data, we will always ask for your consent, eg: photographs, films, quotations used for marketing purposes. Where we are processing data based on your consent, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time.
Your rights to access data:
You have the right to be informed about your personal data held by us and to request to:
- see any or all of this data about yourself (access)
- ask for changes to be made to records (rectification)
- ask for any of all data to be deleted/destroyed (erasure) unless we have legitimate legal reasons to refuse
- ask for certain actions not to happen to your data (process restriction)
- object to any or all of the practices listed above (objection)
- be able to obtain and reuse your personal data for your own purposes across different services in a secure way without hindrance to usability (portability of data)
You also have the right not to be subject to automated decision making, including profiling. Parkfoot does not profile any of its staff, nor does it engage with any third parties who do so, and no automated decision making is used in relation to staff members.
We will not charge you for any of these requests, unless the request is manifestly unfounded or excessive, particularly if it is repetitive.
