BACKGROUND
F1FTY understands that your privacy is important to you and that you care about how your personal data is used. We respect and value the privacy of everyone who visits this website, F1FTY.COM, (the “Website”) and will only collect and use personal data in ways that are described here, and in a way that is consistent with our obligations and your rights under the law. We do not and will not sell your data to third parties.
Please read this Privacy Statement carefully and ensure that you understand it.
1. Information About Us
The Website is owned and operated by David Peacock, an individual based in Amsterdam, Netherlands.
2. What Does This Privacy Statement Cover?
This Privacy Statement applies only to your use of the Website. The Website may contain links to other websites. Please note that we have no control over how your data is collected, stored, or used by other websites and we advise you to check the privacy policies of any such websites before providing any data to them.
3. What is Personal Data?
Personal data is defined by the General Data Protection Regulation (EU Regulation 2016/679) (the “GDPR”) and the Data Protection Act 2018 (collectively, the “Data Protection Legislation”) as ‘any information relating to an identifiable person who can be directly or indirectly identified in particular by reference to an identifier’.
Personal data is, in simpler terms, any information about you that enables you to be identified. Personal data covers obvious information such as your name and contact details, but it also covers less obvious information such as identification numbers, electronic location data, and other online identifiers.
4. What Are My Rights?
Under the Data Protection Legislation, you have the following rights, which we will always work to uphold:
-
The right to be informed about our collection and use of your personal data. This Privacy Statement should tell you everything you need to know, but you can always contact us to find out more or to ask any questions using the details in Part 12.
-
The right to access the personal data we hold about you. Part 11 will tell you how to do this.
-
The right to have your personal data rectified if any of your personal data held by us is inaccurate or incomplete. Please contact us using the details in Part 12 to find out more.
-
The right to be forgotten, (i.e. the right to ask us to delete or otherwise dispose of any of your personal data that we hold). Please contact us using the details in Part 12 to find out more.
-
The right to restrict (i.e. prevent) the processing of your personal data.
-
The right to object to us using your personal data for a particular purpose or purposes.
-
The right to withdraw consent. This means that, if we are relying on your consent as the legal basis for using your personal data, you are free to withdraw that consent at any time.
-
The right to data portability. This means that, if you have provided personal data to us directly, we are using it with your consent or for the performance of a contract, and that data is processed using automated means, you can ask us for a copy of that personal data to re-use with another service or business in many cases.
-
Rights relating to automated decision-making and profiling. We do not use your personal data in this way.
For more information about our use of your personal data or exercising your rights as outlined above, please contact us using the details provided in Part 12.
It is important that your personal data is kept accurate and up-to-date. If any of the personal data we hold about you changes, please keep us informed as long as we have that data.
Further information about your rights can also be obtained from the Information Commissioner’s Office or your local Citizens’ Advice Bureau.
If you have any cause for complaint about our use of your personal data, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner’s Office. We would welcome the opportunity to resolve your concerns ourselves, however, so please contact us first, using the details in Part 12.

We will only use your personal data for the purpose(s) for which it was originally collected unless we reasonably believe that another purpose is compatible with that or those original purpose(s) and need to use your personal data for that purpose. If we do use your personal data in this way and you wish us to explain how the new purpose is compatible with the original, please contact us using the details in Part 12.
If we need to use your personal data for a purpose that is unrelated to, or incompatible with, the purpose(s) for which it was originally collected, we will inform you and explain the legal basis which allows us to do so.

We will not keep your personal data for any longer than is necessary in light of the reason(s) for which it was first collected. F1FTY will retain your personal information:

-
for the period required to resolve disputes with any parties and/or to investigate or defend against potential legal claims; and
-
otherwise as necessary to allow us to conduct our business in compliance with applicable laws and regulations.
All personal information we retain will be subject to this Privacy Statement and our internal retention guidelines. F1FTY will delete your personal data when it is no longer required for the abovementioned purposes. If there is any personal data that, for technical reasons, we are unable to delete entirely from our systems, we will implement appropriate measures to prevent any further processing or use of such data. If you have a question about a specific retention period for certain types of personal information we process about you, please contact us using the details in Part 12.

The security of your personal data is essential to us, and to protect your data, we take a number of important measures, including the following:
-
limiting access to your personal data to those employees, agents, contractors and other third parties with a legitimate need to know and ensuring that they are subject to duties of confidentiality; and
-
procedures for dealing with data breaches (the accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorised disclosure of, or access to, your personal data), including notifying you and/or the Information Commissioner’s Office where we are legally required to do so.

You may access certain areas of the Website without providing any personal data at all. However, to use all features and functions on the Website you may be required to submit or allow for the collection of certain data.
11. How Can I Access My Personal Data?
If you want to know what personal data we have about you, you can ask us for details of that personal data and for a copy of it (where any such personal data is held). This is known as a “subject access request”.
All subject access requests should be made in writing and sent to the email or postal addresses shown in Part 12.
There is not normally any charge for a subject access request. If your request is ‘manifestly unfounded or excessive’ (for example, if you make repetitive requests) a fee may be charged to cover our administrative costs in responding.
We will respond to your subject access request within one month of receiving it. Normally, we aim to provide a complete response, including a copy of your personal data within that time. In some cases, however, particularly if your request is more complex, more time may be required up to a maximum of three months from the date we receive your request. You will be kept fully informed of our progress.
