Data Retention
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 information, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal information, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure of your personal information, the purposes for which we process your personal information 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) for research or statistical purposes in which case we may use this information indefinitely without further notice to you.
Your rights
It is important that the personal information we hold about you is accurate and current. Please keep us informed if your personal information changes during your working relationship with us.
Under certain circumstances, you have rights under data protection law in relation to your personal information. You may have the right to:
- object to us processing, or ask us to restrict our processing of your personal information for any of the purposes listed in this policy, at any time;
- ask us to update and correct any out-of-date or incorrect personal information that we hold about you free of charge;
- access information held about you. Your right of access can be exercised in accordance with data protection law (see further information below on subject access requests);
- ask us to erase your personal information (in certain circumstances). We will do our best to respond to such requests, but these are subject to certain limitations;

Subject Access Requests
You will not have to pay a fee to access your personal information (or to exercise any of the other rights). However, we may charge a reasonable fee if your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive or excessive. Alternatively, we may refuse to comply with your request in these circumstances.
We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access your personal information (or to exercise any of your other rights). This is a security measure to ensure that personal information 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.
We try to respond to all legitimate requests within one month. Occasionally it may take us longer than a month if your request is particularly complex or you have made a number of requests. In this case, we will notify you and keep you updated.
We are committed to children’s privacy
Voxpopme takes children’s privacy seriously and we do not seek to collect individually identifiable information about children under 16 years of age.
If required for the performance of our services to clients, Voxpopme may occasionally have access to responses obtained from minors (children under the age of 16). In such cases, Voxpopme will only access such responses and process personal data of such minors if prior consent has been obtained from the appropriate parents/guardians.
If Voxpopme otherwise learns that a child under the age of 16 has submitted personally identifiable information online, in contravention of these measures, Voxpopme will take all reasonable measures to delete such information from its databases and to not use such information for any purpose.
