Privacy Policy

Privacy / Data Protection Policy

Data protection is of the upmost importance to us.

This document covers some legal technicalities and also offers re-assurance to our connections (including suppliers, clients, potential suppliers and potential clients) that we will ensure your data is treated with the respect that we would demand of our own data. This not only covers how we process the data, but also how we store the data we hold.

We have reviewed our data collection and retention policy in line with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). These pages provide an overview. If you would like more details, please contact our Managing Director, Jamie Barlow (jamie@hypedmarketing.co.uk).

If you are a customer or supplier, we will have your data stored in a number of other places for the purposes of invoicing, paying bills and delivering projects. We ensure that our data storage facilities are compliant with the most current data protection regulations.

How and why do we collect personal information?

We collect personal data from visitors to this website through the use of online forms. We collect your details when you email us with an enquiry. We may have collected your details when we met you at an event. There are many ways we may acquire your data.

When you submit your data to us, either through the website, by email or in person, this is used by us in a variety of ways, specifically:

  • Providing information about products and services
  • Providing and personalising our services
  • Dealing with your enquiries and requests
  • Administering membership of our newsletter distribution list
  • Conducting market research

In all cases, our aim is to make it clear what you are opting into, and you will have given your consent for us to use your data.

We do not pass on our data to any third party.

If you receive any non direct communications (not from an employee’s email address, e.g. a Hyped Marketing newsletter), you can unsubscribe from the mailing list at any time by using the unsubscribe feature on the newsletter or by contacting Jamie Barlow (jamie@hypedmarketing.co.uk).

We collect personal data so that we can contact you if you give us consent to do so. Specifically, we collect your name, email address, company name and website URL, a phone number and your job title.

Who’s data do we collect?

We collect and hold our own data and data belonging to our clients. All data is treated in the manner laid out in this document.

Where your data is stored?

If you are a client, a potential client or a supplier of Hyped Marketing, your data will be stored on our own dedicated server, on our accounting system (XERO) and our CRM (Dotdigital).

All of our storage partners adhere to current data protection requirements and are routinely monitored by ourselves to ensure they keep up to date.
