Personal data, or personal information, means any information about an individual from which that person can be identified.

We may collect, use, store and transfer different kinds of personal data about you which we have grouped together as follows:

Personally-Identifiable Information: We may collect personally identifiable information when you specifically and knowingly provide it to us, for example when you request support, or register and provide personal information such as your email address, name, phone number or other details. Where applicable, personally identifiable information includes "personal data" as defined in applicable law.

Sensitive Personal Data: We ask that you not send us, and you not disclose, any sensitive personal data (e.g., social security numbers, information related to racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religion or other beliefs, health, biometrics or genetic characteristics, criminal background or trade union membership) on or through our services or otherwise to us.

If you send or disclose any sensitive personal data to us, you consent to our processing and use of such sensitive personal data in accordance with this privacy policy. If you do not consent to our processing and use of such sensitive personal data, you must not submit such content to us.

Non-Personally-Identifiable Information: We may collect and aggregate non-personally identifiable information which is information which does not permit you to be identified or identifiable either by itself or in combination with other information available to a third party. This information may include information, such as a website that referred you to us, your IP address, browser type and language, hardware types, geographic location and access times and durations. We also may collect navigational information, including information about website content or pages you view, the links you click, and other actions taken.

INTERNATIONAL TRANSFERS

We share your personal data within the Kennedy Group and The Independents Group, and certain members of each are based outside the EEA. This will therefore involve transferring your data outside the European Economic Area (EEA).

We ensure your personal data is protected by requiring all our group companies to follow the same rules when processing your personal data by way of a Group Data Sharing Agreement.

Whenever we transfer your personal data out of the EEA, we ensure a similar degree of protection is afforded to it by ensuring at least one of the following safeguards is implemented:

  • We will only transfer your personal data to countries that have been deemed to provide an adequate level of protection for personal data by the European Commission.


  • Where we use certain service providers, we may use specific contracts approved by the European Commission which give personal data the same protection it has in Europe.


Please contact us if you want further information on the specific mechanism used by us when transferring your personal data out of the EEA.

HOW LONG WILL YOU USE MY PERSONAL DATA FOR?

We will only retain your personal data for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, regulatory, tax, accounting or reporting requirements. We may retain your personal data for a longer period in the event of a complaint or if we reasonably believe there is a prospect of litigation in respect to our relationship with you.

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, regulatory, tax, accounting or other requirements.

Details of retention periods for different aspects of your personal data are available in our retention policy which you can request from us by contacting us.

In some circumstances you can ask us to delete your data: see below for further information.

This is a security measure to ensure that personal data is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it. We may also contact you to ask you for further information in relation to your request to speed up our response.

Request correction of the personal data that we hold about you. This enables you to have any incomplete or inaccurate data we hold about you corrected, though we may need to verify the accuracy of the new data you provide to us.

Request erasure of your personal data. This enables you to ask us to delete or remove personal data where there is no good reason for us continuing to process it. You also have the right to ask us to delete or remove your personal data where you have successfully exercised your right to object to processing (see below), where we may have processed your information unlawfully or where we are required to erase your personal data to comply with local law. Note, however, that we may not always be able to comply with your request of erasure for specific legal reasons which will be notified to you, if applicable, at the time of your request.

Object to processing of your personal data where we are relying on a legitimate interest (or those of a third party) and there is something about your particular situation which makes you want to object to processing on this ground as you feel it impacts on your fundamental rights and freedoms. You also have the right to object where we are processing your personal data for direct marketing purposes. In some cases, we may demonstrate that we have compelling legitimate grounds to process your information which override your rights and freedoms.

Request restriction of processing of your personal data. This enables you to ask us to suspend the processing of your personal data in the following scenarios:

  • If you want us to establish the data’s accuracy.

  • Where our use of the data is unlawful but you do not want us to erase it.

  • Where you need us to hold the data even if we no longer require it as you need it to establish, exercise or defend legal claims.

  • You have objected to our use of your data but we need to verify whether we have overriding legitimate grounds to use it.


Request the transfer of your personal data to you or to a third party. We will provide to you, or a third party you have chosen, your personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format. Note that this right only applies to automated information which you initially provided consent for us to use or where we used the information to perform a contract with you.

Withdraw consent at any time where we are relying on consent to process your personal data. However, this will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before you withdraw your consent. If you withdraw your consent, we may not be able to provide certain products or services to you. We will advise you if this is the case at the time you withdraw your consent.





PRIVACY POLICY - INDUSTRY VIPs

WHAT WE DO?

Kennedy provides consulting services for leading global brands on large-scale communications projects, specialising in the conceptualisation and realisation of brand, cultural and entertainment projects (“Services”).  In connection with these Services, we have compiled and maintain a database of industry experts, journalists, influencers, VIPs and talents (together, “Industry VIPs”) (the “Database”).  The Database enables our teams to find and feed contact, professional and industry details and other personal data of Industry VIPs, such as passport details for bookings, dietary requirements, dates of birth etc. in each case as relevant for the business and the Services.

In this Privacy Notice, the terms “you” or “your” will apply to the extent Kennedy collects and stores your personal data as an Industry VIP in connection with the Database.

Kennedy respects your privacy and is committed to protecting your personal data. This Privacy Notice will inform you (i) how we protect your personal data when it is used on the Database, (ii) of your privacy rights and (iii) how the Data Protection Laws protect you.

We act as a controller of the personal data which we obtain about you.

WHAT DATA DO WE PROCESS AND HOW IS IT OBTAINED?
Personal data is any information about an individual which makes them identifiable. It does not include anonymous data – being where the identity is removed.

We collate, store and use different kinds of data available to us about Industry VIPs.  In respect of Industry VIPs, the majority of such data is provided directly by such Industry VIP to either us or our clients.  We may also collect certain personal data from third parties, such as clients, although we would never purchase such data.

Such personal data may include:

  1. your name, age, email address and company/brand;
  2. your passport details for organising bookings;
  3. your account name, social media handles and any other online identifiers;
  4. shoe/dress/clothes sizes;
  5. dietary requirements;
  6. dates of birth; and
  7. any other information which may be relevant to our Services.

HOW IS YOUR PERSONAL DATA USED?

We only use your personal data to the extent permitted by applicable laws. We use your personal data where it is necessary to pursue our legitimate interests which is to provide our Services to our clients and also for your benefit.  Your interests and underlying rights do not override such interests.

The Database directly benefits Industry VIPs.  This is by providing them the opportunity to attend various high profile and elite events and also to potentially receive giftings and sample loans.  Further, the Database may also benefit Industry VIPs by facilitating connections and collaborations with brands to enable such brands to expand the presence of such Industry VIPs in the wider marketing environment.  This in turn allows Industry VIPs to enhance their brand, specialisms and expertise.

The Database therefore provides a mutual benefit to both brands and Industry VIPs by empowering each to build important and strategic relationships for their shared benefit.

Your personal data may also be used (i) where you have provided consent to the processing (subject to your withdrawal at any time), (ii) where it is necessary for us to comply with a legal obligation, or (iii) where it is necessary to perform a contract.

Kennedy reserves the right to refuse any such request to the extent permitted by applicable law.

Potential disclosures of your personal data
To the extent strictly required in order to enable Kennedy to provide Services to its clients as set out above, we may share your personal data with such clients.  Occasionally, time or logistics may dictate that we may share limited contact details with a third-party mailing company in connection with a defined campaign.  In such situations we ensure all such persons are subject to strict confidentiality obligations.

Otherwise, we may share your personal data with third party service providers providing us with IT and hosting related services.  

Lastly, we may disclose your personal data to our professional advisers or any other persons to whom we are under a legal, professional or contractual duty to disclose.

Where a disclosure needs to be made to a third party, we will use our reasonable efforts to ensure that such persons respect the security of your personal data and Data Protection Laws.   

International transfer of personal data
Any personal data we collect may be transferred from time to time to throughout the world – to our group personnel or third parties.  Further, the Database may be accessed anywhere in the world by authorised Kennedy employees, including countries which may not have equivalent data protection laws.

Where we transfer your personal data outside of the EEA to countries which do not ensure adequate protection of personal data, we seek to use specific contracts approved pursuant to Data Protection Law. This requires such parties to protect your personal data to the standards required in the European Economic Area pursuant to the GDPR. To the extent we seek to rely on another basis for safe transfer of your personal data outside of the EEA, we will keep you updated by way of an update to this Privacy Notice.

Data security
We operate appropriate security measures designed to prevent accidental or unauthorised loss or access to your personal data. Further, we restrict access to your personal data to only those persons who have a business need to know. Persons processing your personal data on our behalf will only process your personal data pursuant to our instructions and are subject to duties of confidentiality.

Data retention
We only retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was obtained.
