In our Privacy Policy we aim to clarify how we protect your personal information in keeping with the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
Our updated policy provides more details on:
This privacy policy sets out the privacy practices for T&G Event Catering, (“we”, “us”, “our”), our website tgeventcatering.co.uk (the “Website”), and all associated sub-domains.
In order to provide our services to you and to promote our business, we will need to collect and process certain personal information about you.
We are committed to protecting the privacy and security of your personal information, per the applicable data protection laws, including the General Data Protection Regulation, together with the “Data Protection Laws”. This privacy policy describes how we collect and use personal information about you during and after our relationship with you
If you have any questions at all about this policy or the Website, or about how we use and process your personal information, please do not hesitate to contact us by e-mail at enquiries@tgeventcatering.co.uk.
If we change our privacy policy we will post the changes on this page, and may place notices on other pages of the Website, so that you may be aware of the information we collect and how we use it at all times. Continued use of the Website will constitute your agreement to any such changes.
In order to enable us to provide our services to you via our Website, we will collect certain personal data about yourself, including your name, email address and telephone number. We also collect certain other personal information about you, as described further in this privacy policy. If you do not already have a relationship with us, we may hold limited personal information about you so that we may contact you to promote our products and/or services.
For the purposes of the applicable Data Protection Laws, T&G Event Catering is the data controller of your personal data collected in connection with your use of our Website.
We will collect certain personal information about you when you fill in forms on our Website, or when you contact us by phone, e-mail, online chat or otherwise. We will, therefore, hold the information provided. We may also require certain information from you when you survey and/or when you report a problem with our Website.
When you submit personal information, such personal information is encrypted and protected with encryption software that lets your browser automatically encrypt data before you send it to us. While on a secure page the lock icon in Web browsers such as Chrome and Microsoft Internet Explorer becomes locked, as opposed to un-locked, or open, when you are just ‘surfing’.
With regard to each of your visits to our Website we will automatically collect the following information:
We also work with third parties (including, for example, electronic analytics, business partners, sub-contractors in technical and payment services, advertising networks, analytics providers, search information providers) and may receive certain information about you from them.
When we wish to send you information about our services, and you do not currently use our services, we may collect your contact details, for example, your name, email address and phone number. This information may be provided directly by you, when you express interest in our website, or may be obtained through third parties.
We use cookies to distinguish you from other users of our Website. This helps us to provide you with a good experience when you use the Website and also allows us to improve our Website. For detailed information on the cookies we use and the purposes for which we use them, see our cookie policy

See the “Direct mailings” section below for more details.
Some of the above grounds and purposes for processing will overlap and there may be several grounds which justify our use of your personal information. We will only use your personal information for the purposes for which we collected it, unless we reasonably consider that we need to use it for another reason and that reason is compatible with the original purpose. If we need to use your personal information for an unrelated purpose, we will notify you and we will explain the legal basis which allows us to do so.
Please note that we may process your personal information without your knowledge or consent, in compliance with the above rules, where this is required or permitted by law.

We may allow our staff, consultants and/or external service providers acting on our behalf, and our provider of payment services, to access and use your personal data for the activities we have described above. We only permit them to use it to deliver the relevant service, and if they apply an appropriate level of security protection.
We will share your personal information with the following third parties:
We require third parties to respect the security of your data and to treat it in accordance with the law. All our third-party service providers and other entities in the group are required to take appropriate security measures to protect your personal information. We do not allow our third-party service providers to use your personal data for their own purposes. We only permit them to process your personal data for specified purposes and in accordance with our instructions.
We also reserve the right to disclose the information collected about you to our professional advisors and/or if we, in good faith, believe it necessary to protect the personal safety of users or the public.
We may share aggregated demographic information with our partners, clients and advertisers. This is not linked to any personal information that can identify any individual person.
We may partner with another party to provide specific services. When you sign up for these services, we will share names or other contact information that is necessary for the third party to provide these services.
These parties are not allowed to use any personally identifiable information except for the purpose of providing these services. We may also use such aggregated information and statistics for monitoring the Website usage in order to help us develop the Website and our services and may provide such aggregate anonymous information to third parties.
The Website contains links to other websites. Please be aware that we are not responsible or liable for the privacy practices of other websites. We encourage you to be aware when you leave the Website and to read the privacy policies of each and every website that collects personally identifiable information. This privacy policy applies solely to information collected by us on the Website.
We may occasionally send out newsletters, offers or alerts to our clients and to other business contacts. We may also wish to provide you with information about special features of our Website or any other service or products we think may be of interest to you.
Where required by the Data Protection Laws (for example, if you have provided your personal contact information) we will send you such information only if you have specifically elected to receive it. You can opt-out from receiving such communications at any time – please see “Your rights” section below. From time to time the Website may request information from you via surveys. Participation in these surveys is completely voluntary and you, therefore, have a choice whether or not to disclose this information. Information requested may include contact information (such as name and shipping address), and demographic information (such as postcode or age level). Survey information will be used for purposes of monitoring or improving the use of and satisfaction with this Website.
We have put in place appropriate security measures to prevent your personal information from being accidentally lost, used or accessed in an unauthorised way, altered or disclosed. In addition, we limit access to your personal information to those employees, agents, contractors and other third parties who have a business need to know. They will only process your personal information on our instructions and they are subject to a duty of confidentiality.
While we will use all reasonable efforts to safeguard your personal data, you acknowledge that the use of the internet is not entirely secure and for this reason, we cannot guarantee the security or integrity of any personal data that are transferred via the internet. If you have any particular concerns about your information, please contact us (see our contact details below).
We have put in place procedures to deal with any suspected data security breach and will notify you and any applicable regulator of a suspected breach where we are legally required to do so.
We may need to transfer your personal data outside the European Economic Area (EEA), for example, if one of our suppliers or group companies is located outside the EEA. We will ensure that any transfer of your data will be subject to appropriate safeguards, such as a European Commission approved contract (if appropriate) that will ensure you have appropriate remedies in the unlikely event of a security breach.
We will only retain your personal information for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. To determine 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.
In some circumstances, we may anonymise your personal information so that it can no longer be associated with you, in which case we may use such information without further notice to you. Once you are no longer our customer, we will retain and securely destroy your personal information in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.
