Welcome to Peak, accessible from peakeor.global. Our commitment to your privacy and data security is paramount. This policy explains how we collect and use your personal data, the cookies we use, and how you can manage your preferences.
When you voluntarily provide your work details, such as name, email, and company name, to establish communication and receive information about our services, Peak processes this data based on your consent. By submitting your personal data through our contact forms or other communication channels, you are giving us permission to process your data for the purpose of responding to your inquiries and providing you with relevant information about our services. You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time.
Peak will retain personal data collected based on consent for the period set out below from the date of collection. After this period, the data will be securely deleted or anonymised, unless there is a legal requirement to retain it for a longer duration. If you wish to withdraw your consent at any time, please contact us using the information provided in the "Data Controller Information" section below. We will promptly act upon your request and cease processing your personal data based on consent.
Peak is the data controller responsible for your personal data collected through peakeor.global. For any privacy-specific concerns or queries, you can contact us via:
Peak engages several third-party data processors to support our business operations, including HubSpot, Microsoft Outlook, Slack, and Asana. We have executed appropriate data processing agreements with each of these processors to ensure that personal data is handled securely and in accordance with GDPR requirements. We regularly review our processors to verify their ongoing compliance with data protection standards.
Each of our data processors handles personal data in accordance with their respective privacy policies and the terms of our data processing agreements. HubSpot, our primary CRM and marketing automation platform, collects and stores contact information, such as names and email addresses, which is used to manage our customer relationships and send relevant communications. Microsoft Outlook processes email communications, while Slack and Asana are used for internal collaboration and project management, potentially containing limited personal data. We have reviewed the privacy practices of each processor to ensure they align with our commitment to data protection.
Under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the UK Data Protection Act 2018, you have several rights concerning your personal data:
We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, including satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. The specific retention periods depend on the context and purpose of processing. After this period, your personal data will be securely deleted or anonymised.
Personal data collected based on consent for marketing and communication purposes will be retained for a period of 2 years from the date of the last interaction or engagement with the individual. After this period, the data will be securely deleted or anonymised, unless the individual has provided fresh consent for continued processing.
Personal data processed in connection with a contract or service agreement will be retained for the duration of the contract and for a period of 6 years following its termination or expiry. This retention period aligns with the statutory limitation period for contract claims in the UK, ensuring that we can address any legal claims or disputes that may arise.
Where personal data is processed to comply with legal obligations, such as tax or accounting requirements, we will retain the data for the period specified by the relevant laws. In the UK, this typically means retaining personal data related to tax and accounting for a period of 6 years from the end of the financial year in which the transaction occurred.
If you withdraw your consent for processing, we will cease processing your personal data and delete it within a reasonable time, unless there is another legal basis for continued processing or retention.
If you have any concerns about our use of your personal data, you can make a complaint to us atenquiries@peakpeo.com. You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO), the UK supervisory authority for data protection issues (www.ico.org.uk). We would, however, appreciate the chance to deal with your concerns before you approach the ICO, so please contact us in the first instance.
