This policy applies to treatment of personal data and sensitive personal data.
This privacy policy describes:
- How we protect and process the information you provide to us

In any event, the collection and processing of personal information will only take place conformable to the applicable law in all the countries in which E-vate Group operates.

If you have any questions about this policy, please e-mail us at info@e-vate.com.
During our activities, E-vate Group collects, stores and processes personal information about our staff, customers, suppliers and other third parties such as Names, contact details and in some circumstances, financial details. We recognise the need to treat personal data in appropriate fair, lawful and transparent manner, in accordance with prevailing UK and other relevant international Data Protection law including the General Data Protection Regulation 2016 (“The GDPR”). This policy covers all registered entities of E-vate Group. In the UK, our business entities are registered with the Information Commissioner’s Office and are listed as a Data Controller for defined purposes. The Group also acts as a Data Processor when handling data on behalf of Third Parties. We gather and use certain information about individuals in order to provide products and services and to enable certain functions as part of our website/service. We also collect information to better understand how visitors use our website/service and to present timely, relevant information to them.
E-vate Group regards the lawful and correct treatment of personal data and special category data as important to the achievement of our objectives, to the success of our operations and to maintaining confidence between those with whom we deal and ourselves. We therefore ensure that our organisation treats personal information fairly, lawfully and transparently. To this end the Group fully endorses and adheres to the 7 Data Protection Principles, as set out in the GDPR. These principles must be adhered to by anyone who processes personal data. “Processing” is any activity that involves use of the data, such as obtaining, recording or holding the data, or carrying out any operation or set of operations on the data including organising, amending, retrieving, using, disclosing, erasing or destroying it. Processing also includes transferring personal data to third parties and other countries both inside and outside of the European Economic Area.
We will adhere to these principles when obtaining, handling, processing, transporting and storing personal data.
“Personal data” means any data relating to a living individual who can be identified from those data. This includes when the information can directly or indirectly identify an individual by any means reasonably likely to be used. Personal data can therefore be factual (such as a name, address or date of birth) or it can be an opinion. It can also mean location data and online identifiers such as cookies and IP addresses. Such personal information must be dealt with properly however it is collected, recorded and used – whether on paper, electronically, or by other means.
“Special Categories of Personal Data” includes information about a person's racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or similar beliefs, trade union membership, genetic or biometric data used to identify an individual, physical or mental health condition, sex life and sexual orientation. Special category data can only be processed under strict conditions. Criminal conviction data are to be processed in a similar way to special category data with the conditions being set out under the Data Protection Act 2018 in Parts 1, 2 and 3 of Schedule 1.

The content of our website was created with the greatest of care. However, we cannot guarantee that this content is correct, complete or up to date. We, as service provider, are responsible under the general laws for our own content on this website. However, we, as service provider, are not obligated to monitor any third-party information transmitted or stored on our website or to investigate circumstances indicating an illegal activity.

However, liability in this respect is only possible from the time we become aware of an actual infringement of law. Once we become aware of such legal violations, we shall remove the respective contents immediately.
Our service includes links to external websites, but we have no influence over their content. Therefore, we cannot accept responsibility for third-party content. In each case, it is the respective provider or operator of the linked websites who is responsible for their contents. The linked websites were checked for any legal irregularities at the time the link was established, and no illegal contents were recognisable at that point in time. However, continuous monitoring of the contents of the linked pages cannot be reasonably expected unless there are concrete reasons for suspecting legal violations. Once we are aware of illegal content, we shall remove the respective links immediately.
The contents and works created by the page operators on these pages are subject to UK copyright law. The duplication, editing, dissemination and all kinds of utilisation beyond the constraints of copyright law require written approval by the respective author or creator.

Third-party contents will be marked as such. Should you nevertheless notice a copyright infringement, please inform us accordingly. Once we become aware of violations of rights, we shall remove the respective contents immediately.

Information collected prior to the time any change/amendment is posted will be used in accordance with the new rules/laws that applied at the time the information was collected. We will take reasonable steps to draw your attention to any changes in our Policy. However, we suggest that you read this document each time you use the website/service to ensure that it still meets with your approval.
