“PRIVACY & COOKIES
Pängels Virtual and Personal Assistants is based in Maldon, Essex. We may be contacted via the website, email info@pangels.co.uk or by telephone 0844 500 7818. We may process “personal data” and/or “special category personal data” (as defined in UK data protection legislation) as part of our contracted services and/or on our administration supporting these contracted services (“legitimate interests”). We may process data on staff and/or contacts (either in client companies or suppliers). We process data on behalf of suppliers under contract. Processing may be electronic (on our systems or those of our client) or on paper. The security of all data is important to us as a company and all feasible security measures are in place. Data are held as long as they remain relevant to the purpose for collection. Once no longer required, data are deleted by secure means.
Data may be shared with third parties as part of our contracted services and/or if we are required by law to do so. “Third parties” may include specialist contractors for whom we process data, or we may include in specific projects for clients. We cannot accept any liability for any processing conducted by a third party outside our remit – whether this is a supplier of data or a contractor we may utilise.
As required by law, we have conducted a “cookie audit” on the website. Cookies are small text files websites store on your device to remember your visit – some for the current session only and some for a longer period of time. They may help with functionality and may also control advertising across the internet. Our website does not utilise cookies of our own (known as “first party cookies”). If you visit the Contact page, then Google may place cookies on your system by virtue of the “reCAPTCHA” security feature. There is a link on the” reCAPTCHA” logo to Google’s Privacy Policy which should explain their use of any data collated via these cookies – we have no control over this use of the data. You are at liberty to block cookies through your browser, but it may impact on your use of our website. Our website links to Facebook, X and LinkedIn, but these links do not utilise any cookies through our site.
None of the above affects your rights under the legislation, in particular your right to access the data we hold on you. If you wish to request a copy of your data, please submit it in writing/email to the Company. Please include enough information to enable us to identify you and search for appropriate data.
If you are dissatisfied with this policy, have queries about our data protection procedures or wish to lodge a complaint, please contact the company in the first instance. Thereafter you have the right to submit a complaint to the Supervisory Authority, the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO):
