GDPR Compliance

Our Commitment to GDPR

dusk-puffin is committed to ensuring the protection of all personal data that we process in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). This page outlines how we comply with GDPR requirements and explains your rights as a data subject.

Data Controller

dusk-puffin acts as the data controller for all personal data collected through this website and in the course of providing our services. As data controller, we determine the purposes and means of processing personal data and are responsible for ensuring compliance with data protection legislation.

Lawful Basis for Processing

We process personal data only when we have a lawful basis to do so. Our processing activities are based on one or more of the following:

• Consent: Where you have given clear consent for us to process your personal data for a specific purpose
• Contract: Where processing is necessary for the performance of a contract with you or to take steps at your request before entering into a contract
• Legitimate Interests: Where processing is necessary for our legitimate interests or those of a third party, except where such interests are overridden by your interests or fundamental rights
• Legal Obligation: Where processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which we are subject

Your Rights Under GDPR

As a data subject, you have the following rights:

Right to Access

You have the right to request a copy of the personal data we hold about you. We will respond to your request within one month and provide the information free of charge, unless the request is manifestly unfounded or excessive.

Right to Rectification

You have the right to request that we correct any inaccurate personal data or complete any incomplete data we hold about you.

Right to Erasure

You have the right to request that we delete your personal data in certain circumstances, such as when the data is no longer necessary for the purpose for which it was collected or when you withdraw consent.

Right to Restrict Processing

You have the right to request that we restrict the processing of your personal data in certain circumstances, such as when you contest the accuracy of the data or object to processing based on legitimate interests.

Right to Data Portability

You have the right to receive your personal data in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format and to transmit that data to another controller.

Right to Object

You have the right to object to processing of your personal data based on legitimate interests or for direct marketing purposes.

Rights Related to Automated Decision-Making

You have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you.

Data Protection Measures

We implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to ensure a level of security appropriate to the risk, including:

• Encryption of personal data where appropriate
• Access controls to limit who can access personal data
• Regular testing and evaluation of security measures
• Staff training on data protection obligations
• Procedures for detecting, reporting, and investigating data breaches

International Transfers

We do not routinely transfer personal data outside the European Economic Area (EEA). Where such transfers are necessary, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place in accordance with GDPR requirements.
