Competition Privacy Policy

PRIVACY NOTICE FOR PRIZE DRAWS AND COMPETITIONS

The purpose of this privacy notice is to tell you about the information we collect from you when you enter our prize draws and competitions. When we collect your personal data we are acting as a data controller and we must provide you with information about us, about why and how we use your personal data, and about your rights in respect of your personal data. Our details are as follows:

Our name is Bearable Limited and our address is Highclere House, 180 Main Road, Biggin Hill, England, TN16 3BB. You can contact us at that address by post or you can email us at support@bearable.app

The personal data that we collect

When you enter our prize draws or competitions, we collect your email address and we may also ask you for your name, your social media username, your phone number, and your postal address, along with any other information required for entry into prize draw or the competition or required to notify you of winning or to deliver a prize to you.

Why we collect your personal data

We will use your information to ensure that the rules of the prize draw or competition are adhered to, to determine whether you have won according to the competition or prize draw rules and to contact you if you win a prize. If you win we will notify you of this via phone or email, and we may have the prize delivered to your postal address.

We collect and process the personal data that you provide for entry into competitions and prize draws because you have given us your consent to do so, by entering the prize draw or competition. You are not obliged to enter any prize draw or competition. You can withdraw your consent at any time by contacting us at support@bearable.app. In this event, we will stop the processing as soon as we can. However, this will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before your withdrawal of consent. Withdrawal of consent may affect our ability to contact you if you are a winner and we may need to reallocate a prize in that event.

As stated in the terms and conditions of the competition or prize draw, the law requires that we must either publish or make available information that indicates that a valid award took place. The terms and conditions explain how you can object but we must still provide the information and winning entry to the UK Advertising Standards Authority on request.

What we do with your information and how long we retain it

The personal data that we collect for the competition or prize draw is stored in a database. It is not sent outside of the UK/European Economic Area. We will not sell your personal data or share the personal data gathered with any other third parties unless we need to do that for the purpose of awarding a prize. For example, we may need to share your data with agents who deliver prizes or with entities providing the prizes (e.g. where a voucher is provided).

We will retain your personally identifiable data only until the prize draw has taken place or the competition has been judged and the prize has been successfully claimed unless you have opted to be added to our database.

Your rights

You can ask us what information we hold about you, and you can also ask us to correct your personal data if it is inaccurate. You can ask for your personal data to be erased and you can ask for us to give you a copy of the personal data we hold about you. You can also ask us to stop using your information. The easiest way to do this is to withdraw your consent. You can do this at any time, by emailing or writing to us using the contact details above or by clicking the unsubscribe link at the end of any materials we send to you by electronic means.

Complaints

We would welcome the opportunity to address any complaints you may have. If you have a complaint about our use of your information, you can contact the UK Information Commissioner’s Office via their website at www.ico.org/concerns or write to them at:
