What information do we collect?

This is what we normally collect about you to help us provide you with Cambridge Risk services and information, and to improve them even more, where we can:

• • Contact details such as name, address, email and telephone number.

• • In order to help us develop and improve our website we collect information about how you use the site.

• • Other data we occasionally ask you to provide us with, for example now and again we might ask you to fill in a questionnaire, just so you can let us know how we’re doing.

We hold the names and contact details of individuals acting in their capacity as representatives of their organisations, across the business.

If the interactions relate to contracts or potential contracts for work to be conducted by us, or for any eLearning, then the legal basis is Article 6(1)(b) because the processing is necessary for the performance of a contract, or to take steps to enter into a contract. Additionally, if the interactions relate to suppliers, buildings management, IT services, accounts, the legal basis is also Article 6(1)(b) because the processing is necessary for the performance of a contract, or to take steps to enter into a contract. For receipt of our newsletter, this is under Article 6(1)(f) Legitimate Interest, as you have requested to receive the newsletter, and it is in our and your interest to receive the newsletter. You can opt out from receiving the newsletter at any time.

As an example, you may wish us to share your contact details with selected third parties. An example may be a third party who provides services such as certification as part of a project with a specific objective of obtaining certification. This will only be carried out following discussion with you, and if you grant specific permission to do this.
