The legitimate interest pursued by us are as follows:
We adopt appropriate data collection, storage and processing practices and security measures to protect against unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure or destruction of your personal or transactional information stored on our website and systems.
The security measures we’ve put in place include:
We believe in being open, honest and transparent with our clients and suppliers and want you to feel comfortable about your decision to give us your personal data and how we use it.
We will use the details you provide to us to communicate with you about how we can help you in your role and help your company achieve its objectives.
We promise that we will only communicate with you in the way you wish us to and we will always respect your privacy. You can change your mind at any time and it’s quick and easy to let us know that you no longer want to hear from us by contacting the Data Protection Officer.
In certain instances, we collect and use your personal data by relying on the legitimate interest legal basis. This is because when you, for example, request to receive services or products from us, we have a legitimate organisational interest to use your personal data to respond to you and there is no overriding prejudice to you by using your personal data for this purpose. However, we will always provide you with the option to opt-out of hearing from us. This is the case, for example, where we seek to obtain your consent to receive email marketing from SignalCX.
We will only communicate to you in the way you have told us. For example:
If you actively provide your consent to us along with your email address and/or mobile phone number, we may contact you for marketing purposes by email or text message. By subscribing to SignalCX emails or opting in to email communication from SignalCX, you grant us the right to use the email for email marketing.
If you have provided us with your postal address or telephone number we may send you direct mail or telephone you about our work unless you have told us that you would prefer not to receive such information. We also actively check telephone numbers against the Corporate Telephone Preference Service (CTPS) and will only make telephone calls to you where your telephone number is listed on the CTPS if you have specifically told us that you do not object to such calls and have consented to receive them from SignalCX.
You can also change any of your contact preferences at any time, including telling us that you don’t want us to contact you for marketing purposes by contacting the Data Protection Officer.

Introduction
In the course of carrying out our business activities relating to Service Animals, we collect information from a range of sources and generate a substantial volume of data that is retained electronically. This is stored on Amazon Web Services (AWS) in a data centre situated in London (UK). Appropriate retention of data is necessary for our operational performance and is required to fulfil our range of client services. However, the retention of data can lead to unnecessary and excessive use of electronic space, and indefinite retention of personal data can breach the EU General Data Protection Regulations (EU 2018), Data Protection Act (UK 2018) and UK General Data Protection Regulations (UK 2021). Failure to comply with regulations can lead to significant financial penalties from the Information Commissioner’s Office and other EU based regulatory authorities. It is therefore essential that SignalCX has appropriate systems and processes in place for the preservation and timely disposal of documents and records in line with business requirements and relevant legislation.
Purpose
This policy sets out SignalCX’s approach to managing its information to ensure that records and documents are preserved in line with business and legislative requirements and that data is not retained for periods of time that are longer than necessary.
Scope
This Data Retention Policy specifically applies to: all staff, volunteers, consultants, contractors, trustees and, as appropriate, partnership organisations, partner staff and third parties of SignalCX. All records that are created, handled, stored, or processed by SignalCX, electronically (soft copy) form or physically (hard copy) when the physical document forms part of a structured filing system. All those people or groups to whom this policy applies are, as appropriate, aware of this policy.
Data Storage
For the purpose of this document, the term ‘Data’ pertains to Company and Individual data. All company and individual customer data is stored on a secure AWS server to ensure that applicable security, backup, retention and disposal controls can be carried out. All said controls have been applied programmatically against pre-defined time periods for each type of data.
Access to all data will be available to the datas parent customers for a period of time outlined in the contract said company has in place with SignalCX. This period of time will only be as long as is reasonable to fulfil the contractual requirements with the client, will not be excessive and the data subject’s right to erasure will be recognised and actioned in accordance with appropriate data protection legislation regardless of any contractually stated periods of time. Data records may be extracted by SignalCX for analysis or processing purposes and also stored temporarily in a secure location for the period of time required to do so. Any extracted data will be erased immediately after use.
Data Archiving
Automated Electronic Records Archive – Individual participant data will be automatically transferred to an electronic archive after a period of 5 years and 1 day from which it has entered the SignalCX database. This data will remain in archive for 5 years and 1 day. Archived files may be accessed in read-only format by SignalCX and will no longer be directly accessible by customers. Data may be requested by customers upon written request during the period of time that it is held in archive.
Anonymisation & Disposal
SignalCX will maintain a record of non-personalised aggregated data on past individual participant customers in its CRM system to enable business planning and insight. To enable this, data will be ‘anonymised’, such that they cannot be identified within the dataset after a period of 5 years and 1 day after being transferred to the electronic archive. At this stage, the Personally Identifiable Information (PII) will be erased permanently without backup and as such, will not be retrievable by any means.
Right To Be Forgotten
As per EU and UK GDPR guidelines, participants have the right at any stage to be removed from the system. In an instance where a participant wishes their data to be removed, they can request this by email to serviceanimals@signal.cx. The removal request will be actioned in the quickest time possible and the participant will no longer receive communications from Labinah Management Training Ltd t/a SignalCX. Deleted profiles cannot be retrieved but individuals that have been removed can sign up to start a new profile at any time. Individual participants may be also readded to the system if requested by the Company with whom Labinah Management Training Ltd t/a SignalCX have a contract. Labinah Management Training Ltd t/a SignalCX cannot be held responsible should this situation occur.
