We want to provide a safe and secure user experience. We will ensure that the information you submit to us, or which we collect, via various channels (including our website or through written correspondence (including e-mail)), is only used for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy.
Through this Privacy Policy we aim to inform you about the types of personal data we collect, the purposes for which we use the data and the ways in which the data is handled. We also aim to satisfy the obligation of transparency under the EU General Data Protection Regulation 2016/679 (“GDPR“) and national laws implementing GDPR.
For the purpose of this Privacy Policy, the controller of personal data is The Product Refinery Limited and our contact details are set out in the Contact section at the end of this Privacy Policy.
In general, you can visit the TPR website without identifying yourself or revealing any personal information.
However, you may choose to provide us with personally identifiable information. Personally identifiable information is information that can be used to identify you, such as your name, email address, telephone number, or similar information.
Within the TPR website, you can make requests for information, register to receive materials from us, and in some cases, purchase our products or services. The types of personal information collected in these circumstances may include name, location, employment details, education history, contact preferences (including email addresses & telephone number), age, salary range and billing, transaction, and credit card information (including billing address).
You can be assured that information you provide voluntarily will only be used in connection with your business relationship with TPR. We will hold, use and disclose your personally identifiable information for our legitimate business purposes including:
From time to time, we may also use your information to contact you for market research or, with your consent, to provide you with marketing information about our products and services we think would be of particular interest to you. At a minimum, we will always give you the choice to opt-out of receiving such direct marketing or market research contact.
We will not use or share the personally identifiable information provided to us online in ways unrelated to the uses described in this statement. More information about how we may share your information can be found at section 5.
We do not share your personal information with third parties, other than where we are required to do so by applicable law, regulation or as part of a legal process. If we receive a request from a regulatory body or law enforcement agency, and if permitted under GDPR and other laws, we may disclose certain personal information to such bodies or agencies.
If we or our business merges with or is acquired by another business or company in the future, we will share your personal information with the new owners of the business or company and their advisors. If this happens, we will notify users of our websites and customers of such event.
We will retain your personal information for the time necessary to provide the services we perform for you, or stated by the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy, and you can always request that we stop processing or delete your personal information.
You have certain rights in relation to personal information we hold about you. Details of these rights and how to exercise them are set out below. We will require evidence of your identity before we are able to act on your request.
Right of Access
You have the right at any time to ask us for a copy of the personal information about you that we hold. Where we have good reason, and if the GDPR permits, we can refuse your request for a copy of your personal information, or certain elements of the request. If we refuse your request or any element of it, we will provide you with our reasons for doing so.
Right of Correction or CompletionIf personal information we hold about you is not accurate, out of date or incomplete, you have a right to have the data rectified, updated or completed. You can let us know by contacting us at using the Contact section below.

Right to object to or restrict processing
In certain circumstances, you have the right to object to our processing of your personal information by contacting us. For example, if we are processing your information on the basis of our legitimate interests and there are no compelling legitimate grounds for our processing which override your rights and interests. You also have the right to object to use of your personal information for direct marketing purposes.
You may also have the right to restrict our use of your personal information, such as in circumstances where you have challenged the accuracy of the information and during the period where we are verifying its accuracy.

We have put in place measures to ensure the security of the information we collect and store about you and will use our reasonable endeavours to protect your personal data from unauthorised disclosure and/or access including through the use of network and database security measures, but these cannot guarantee the security of any data which is collected and stored.

We are not responsible for, and have no control over, information that is submitted or collected by these third parties and you should consult their privacy policies.
Given that the Internet is a global environment, using the Internet to collect and process personal data necessarily involves the transmission of data on an international basis.

Our Privacy Policy is subject to change from time to time and, if we update it, we will post these changes on this page so that you will be aware of how we use your information.
