5. The Personal Data We Process

Personal data means any information about an individual from which that person can be identified. It does not include data where the identity has been removed (anonymous data). We may process different kinds of personal data about you, which we have categorised as follows:

Identity Data: including your name, username (or similar unique identification numbers that we may apply to you), email address, marital status, title, date of birth and gender.
Contact Data: including you billing address, delivery address, email address and telephone number(s).
Financial Data: including payment card details.
Transaction Data: including the details of the products and services purchased and the date, time and location of sale and your purchasing activity (including vouchers and coupons activity).

Profile Data: including your username and password, purchases, orders or bookings made by you, your interests, your preferences, your feedback, your survey responses, your social media content (where this is in the public domain including posts and comments, pictures and video footage) and profile information and insight from organisations that already hold information on you (such as credit reference agencies and ‘customer insight companies’ who give us their views on your household, your status, as well as your possible preferences and behaviours).
Usage Data: including information about how you use our website, mobile apps, products and services (such as details of your table reservations).
Marketing and Communications Data: including your preferences in receiving marketing from us and our third parties, your communication preferences and information on what you view, click on and access in and through our marketing emails, text messages and push notifications.

We do not knowingly process any other data relating to children.

We also collect, use and share Aggregated Data such as statistical or demographic data for any purpose. Aggregated Data may be derived from your personal data but is not considered personal data in law as this data does not directly or indirectly reveal your identity. For example, we may aggregate your Usage Data to calculate the percentage of users accessing a specific website feature. However, if we combine or connect Aggregated Data with your personal data so that it can directly or indirectly identify you, we treat the combined data as personal data which will be used in accordance with this privacy notice.

Where we need to collect personal data by law, or under the terms of a contract we have with you and you fail to provide that data when requested, we may not be able to perform the contract we have or are trying to enter into with you (for example, to provide you with products or services). In this case, we may have to cancel a product or service you have with us, but we will notify you if this is the case at the time.

6. Sensitive Data

In certain situations we have to collect Sensitive Data about you. Under data protection law this is known as “special category” data and includes details about your race or ethnicity, religious or philosophical beliefs, sex life, sexual orientation, political opinions, trade union membership, and information about your health and genetic and biometric data.

When do we process Sensitive Data? We only collect and process Sensitive Data where you provide such information to us in the following situations:

As part of any feedback and/or complaints which you raise with us, for example where you believe you have suffered a health issue following a visit to one of our venues (for example, suspected food poisoning or another health and safety incident), or where you believe we have been discriminatory against you (for example, discrimination based on race or sexual orientation). When you provide details of what happened, this may include giving us Sensitive Data. We are allowed to process this Sensitive Data (together with any other relevant information), to investigate, address and resolve your issue and to administer any possible legal claims or out-of-court procedures. We may process Sensitive Data relating to children in the situations set out in Section 7.
Where you are applying for a job with us. In this situation, we can process your Sensitive Data because it is necessary for carrying out our obligations and rights related to employment law and your working capacity.
We do not routinely collect and process Sensitive Data in any other situations. If we do, we will obtain your explicit consent.

Children need particular protection where their data is collected and processed. We may collect and process Children’s Data in certain situations as described below.

For enquiring about, and booking, children’s parties and events. When you fill out forms relating to the event you may choose to provide us with children’s names, ages and dietary requirements
Where you believe you have suffered a health issue following a visit to one of our venues (for example, suspected food poisoning or another health and safety incident), or where you believe we have been discriminatory against you (for example, discrimination based on race or sexual orientation) where children have been involved in these situations. Again, you might provide us with children’s names, ages and health information;
Where a child aged 13 or above logs into our WiFi network, we collect Identify Data, Contact Data, Technical Data, and Usage Data (however, only customers aged 18+ can register for a customer account with us).

Alternatively, or in addition, we may process Children’s Data on the basis of consent, given or authorised by the holder of parental responsibility (and in these circumstances we will always make reasonable efforts to verify such consent).

9. How we process your personal data

We only process your personal data when allowed to do so by law. Most commonly, we will process your

personal data:

With your consent and please note that you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time by contacting us.
Where we need to perform a contract we are about to enter into, or have entered into, with you.
Where it is necessary for our legitimate interests (or those of a third party) and your interests and fundamental rights do not override those interests.
Where we need to comply with a legal or regulatory obligation.

10. How we share your personal data

We cannot run our business or provide many of the services and benefits you expect to receive without involving other people and businesses. We only share your information in accordance with the laws applicable to us.

We share your personal data with:

All of our Group including new companies, brands or outlets we might acquire in the future (acting as controllers or processors) who are all based in the EEA and who provide IT, HR, system administration services and for whom you may have agreed can provide you with marketing communications.
Service providers (mainly acting as processors, but sometimes as controllers) who help us provide our websites, mobile apps, Wi-Fi networks and related services to you; for example, information technology companies who design and host our websites, payment services companies who enable you to use credit or payment cards with us, and data insight specialists.
Affiliated third parties (acting as processors and controllers) that provide services to us such as market research, table booking, voucher supply and redemption, marketing insight services and data analytics services.
Rewards companies (acting as controllers) which you have signed up to, in order for you to receive the rewards and benefits they offer.

We also may share the information we collect with other third parties where we are legally obliged to do so; for example, to comply with a court order.

11. International Transfers

Some of our external third parties are based outside of the EEA so their processing of your personal data will involve a transfer of data outside the EEA. Whenever we transfer your personal data outside of the EEA, we ensure that a similar degree of protection is afforded to it by ensuring at least one of the following safeguards is implemented:

We only transfer your personal data to countries that have been deemed to provide an adequate level of protection for personal data by the European Commission.
We will use specific contracts approved by the European Commission which give personal data the same protection as it has in the EEA.
Where we use third parties based in the US, we may transfer personal data to them if they are part of the Privacy Shield which requires them to provide similar protection for personal data shared between the EEA and the US.

If you have any questions in relation to this section, please contact i nfo@the-watersedge.co.uk.

12. How We Keep Your Personal Data Secure

We take the security of your personal data very seriously and have in place appropriate security measures at all times, including where we share your information with our suppliers and partners, to protect your personal data from being accidentally lost, used or accessed in an unauthorised way, altered or disclosed. We have also put in place procedures to deal with any suspected personal data breach and will notify you and any applicable regulator of a breach where we are legally required to do so.

13. Our Retention of Your Personal Data

We can only keep your personal data for as long as necessary for the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.

The precise length of time we hold your personal data for varies depending on the individual circumstances, but in determining the appropriate retention period for personal data, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure of your personal data, the purposes for which we process your personal data and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements.

We regularly review our retention periods to ensure that we are not keeping your data for longer than necessary. Details of retention periods for different aspects of your personal data are available by contacting us.

14. Your Rights

In certain circumstances, you may have the right to request access, transfer, rectification and/or erasure of the personal data that we process about you. You may also have the right to object to and/or restrict our processing of your personal data. Details of the rights are set out below.

Human intervention: you may request human intervention where a decision has been made about you based solely on automated processing, and/or you may challenge that decision (this may happen in the context of our recruitment process where we collect information relating to whether or not a candidate has unspent criminal convictions).
Access: you may request access to your personal data, which enables you to receive a copy of the personal data that we hold about you and to check to see if we are processing it lawfully.
Transfer: you may request that we transfer your personal data to you or a third party. We will provide to you, or a third party you have chosen, your personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format. Please note that this right only applies to automated information which you initially provided consent for us to use or where we used the information to perform a contract with you.
Rectification: you may request rectification of the personal data that we hold about you. This enables you to have any incomplete or inaccurate data we hold about you corrected, though we may need to verify the accuracy of the new data you provide to us.
Erasure: you may request erasure of the personal data that we hold about you. This enables you to ask us to delete or remove personal data where there is no good reason for us continuing to process it. You also have the right to ask us to delete or remove your personal data where you have successfully exercised your right to object to processing (see below), where we may have processed your information unlawfully or where we are required to erase your personal data to comply with local law. Note, however, that we may not always be able to comply with your request of erasure for specific legal reasons which will be notified to you, if applicable, at the time of your request.
Object: you may object to how we are processing your personal data where we are relying on a legitimate interest (or those of a third party) and there is something about your particular situation which makes you want to object to processing on this ground as you feel it impacts on your fundamental rights and freedoms. You also have the right to object where we are processing your personal data for direct marketing purposes. In some cases, we may demonstrate that we have compelling legitimate grounds to process your information which override your rights and freedoms.
Restriction: you may request that we restrict how we process your personal data. This enables you to ask us to suspend the processing of your personal data in the following scenarios: (a) if you want us to establish the data's accuracy; (b) where our use of the data is unlawful but you do not want us to erase it; (c) where you need us to hold the data even if we no longer require it as you need it to establish, exercise or defend legal claims; or (d) you have objected to our use of your data but we need to verify whether we have overriding legitimate grounds to use it.
Withdrawal of Consent: where we have relied on your consent to process your personal data you will have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. However, this will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before you withdraw your consent. If you withdraw your consent, we may not be able to provide certain products or services to you. We will advise you if this is the case at the time you withdraw your consent.

To exercise any of these rights please contact us using the details in paragraph 2.
