Storage of personal data
ACTINUM Limited is a UK-domiciled organisation whose primary offices are in the UK.
- Our websites and web applications are hosted in the EU and are accessed only by our EU-based staff.
- Our customer relationship management, marketing and accounting systems for our business are either EU-based or hosted by companies who were participating in the (now defunct and yet to be replaced) EU – U.S. Privacy Shield Framework.
- We use a range of Cloud Service Providers (CSPs) as part of our processing environment. Unless we specifically state otherwise, we are, in respect of all these CSPs, the data controller.
- Unless we specifically state otherwise all of the CSPs that we use utilise EU-located processing facilities.
- Our payment processors and banking arrangements are based in the UK.
- We operate a data retention policy in respect of all data, whether paper-based or digital and those aspects of it which relate to personal data are contained in the table above.
Security measures
We have appropriate security controls in place to protect personal data. Risk assessment, including assessing risks to the rights and freedoms of data subjects, is at the heart of our information security management approach.
We do not, however, have any control over what happens between your device and the boundary of our information infrastructure. You should be aware of the many information security risks that exist and that you should take appropriate steps to safeguard your own information.
We accept no liability in respect of breaches that occur beyond our sphere of control.

You are not required to pay any charge for exercising your rights. We have one month to respond to you.
We will inform you if answering requests is likely to require additional time or incurs unreasonable expense (which you may have to meet).
