Secure online payments are made using our partner Sagepay. Altrad Generation takes its data security responsibilities seriously, employing the most appropriate physical and technical measures, including staff training and awareness. We review our data security measures and procedures regularly. Unfortunately, the transmission of information by means of the internet, including through e-mail, is not completely secure.

Once we have received your information, we will use strict procedures and security features to prevent unauthorised access.

We might store your information in different places. Physical files are stored in our office(s) and file storage facility. Electronic files are stored on our secure servers and in the cloud. Please refer to our Retention Policy in relation to the period that we retain your data for.
If required, for storage or processing purposes, we may need to transfer your personal data to a destination outside the European Economic Area (“EEA”). It may be processed by our staff operating outside the EEA who work for us or for one of our suppliers. We and our service providers will take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that storage and processing of your data outside the EEA continues to comply with the provisions of the GDPR.
Your rights:
In addition to the policies and procedures we employ to safeguard your data, your personal data is protected by the GDPR.
