Client Privacy Notice

 

Introduction:

• Protecting the personal information of our clients is extremely important to JollyDays. It’s especially important to a company like ours, as we are entrusted to look after a large amount of sensitive personal information. The way we collect and share client information is equally important.

• Our Clients include support teams, professional care workers, family members, and friends, and often a combination of these.

• The JollyDays policy on the protection of personal information also extends to JollyDays Staff members and External Suppliers.

‘Consent’ - Personal data may be processed on the basis that the data subject has consented to such processing.

‘Contractual necessity’ - Personal data may be processed on the basis that such processing is necessary in order to fulfil our contractual obligations as a holiday provider; and

‘Legitimate Interests’ - The processing of your data is necessary for your legitimate interests, (in arranging your holidays), or the legitimate interests of a third party (such as a hotel or airline), unless there is a good reason to protect your personal data which overrides those legitimate interests.
