The lawful bases we rely on for processing your information are:
Under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations, we may send you marketing communications if (i) you made a purchase or asked for information from us about our goods or services or (ii) you agreed to receive marketing communications and - in each case - you have not opted out of receiving such communications since. Under these regulations, if you are a limited company, we may send you marketing emails without your consent. However, you can still opt out of receiving marketing emails from us at any time.
Before we share your personal data with any third party for their own marketing purposes we will get your express consent.
You can ask us or third parties to stop sending you marketing messages at any time by following the opt-out links on any marketing message sent to you or by emailing us at getintouch@targit.co.uk at any time.
If you opt out of receiving marketing communications this opt-out does not apply to personal data provided as a result of other transactions, such as purchases, warranty registrations etc.
In certain circumstances we may be obliged to share your personal data with the parties set out below:
We require all third parties to whom we transfer your data to respect the security of your personal data and to treat it in accordance with the law. We only allow such third parties to process your personal data for specified purposes and in accordance with our instructions.
When we process your order, we may send your data to, and also use the resulting information from, credit reference agencies to prevent fraudulent purchases.
We securely store your information in the cloud via Microsoft Office 365.
We will only retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.
When deciding what is the correct length of time to keep the data we look at its amount, nature and sensitivity, potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure and the processing purposes, if these can be achieved by other means and legal requirements.
For tax purposes the law requires us to keep basic information about our customers (including Contact, Identity, Financial and Transaction Data) for six years after they stop being customers.
In some circumstances we may anonymise your personal data for research or statistical purposes in which case we may use this information indefinitely without further notice to you.
We have put in place security measures to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used, altered, disclosed, or accessed without authorisation. We also allow access to your personal data only to those employees and partners who have a business need to know such data. They will only process your personal data on our instructions, and they must keep it confidential.
We have procedures in place to deal with any suspected personal data breach and will notify you and any applicable regulator of a breach if we are legally required to.

It is very important that the information we hold about you is accurate and up to date. Please let us know if at any time your personal information changes by emailing us.
With over twenty years of change stories to tell, we like to think there's inspiration as well as practical value in our blog posts, so you can make sense of change too.
This week we're looking at how change has transformed over time. And asking how change management itself will need to transform to support a new world of agility, customer-centricity and digital transformation.
There ARE good outcomes to be found amid crisis, but how do we build on the time spent accelerating transformation and digital adoption during lockdown? And how can we turn crisis into something with lasting meaning and value?
I've learned more about change in a practical sense from my children in three months of lockdown than any live experience, programme, training course or industry affiliation could ever have taught me.
