How we use information

We use personal information to assess applicants, verify competence and eligibility to work, manage assignments and workforce relationships, deliver lifting and consultancy services, manage customers and suppliers, process payments, maintain security and meet legal, regulatory, employment, tax and health-and-safety obligations.

Our lawful bases

Depending on the purpose, we rely on contract, legal obligation, legitimate interests, consent or vital interests. Where special-category information is required, we also rely on an appropriate condition permitted by UK law.

Sharing information

Where necessary and lawful, information may be shared with customers, principal contractors, site operators, payroll and professional advisers, training and recruitment providers, IT and security providers, insurers, regulators, courts, law enforcement and public authorities. We do not sell personal information.

International transfers and security

Where a supplier processes information outside the United Kingdom, we use an approved transfer mechanism and suitable safeguards. We use proportionate organisational and technical measures to protect information and restrict access to authorised people.

Retention

We retain information only for as long as required for its purpose and applicable legal, tax, insurance, contractual, health-and-safety and claims requirements. Information is then securely deleted, destroyed or anonymised.

Your rights

Depending on the circumstances, you may request access, correction, deletion, restriction, portability or object to processing. You may withdraw consent where consent is relied upon. To make a request, email contact@willmattlifting.co.uk. We may ask for information to confirm your identity.
