As with all websites, we use cookies on www.mintyhighway.com.

Our website is built using Wix and hosted by Wix.

The types of cookies our site uses can be found here: https://support.wix.com/en/article/cookies-and-your-wix-site

You can set your browser to refuse all or some browser cookies, or to alert you when websites set or access cookies. If you disable or refuse cookies, please note that some parts of our website may become inaccessible or not function properly.

7. Google Analytics

When someone visits www.mintyhighway.com, we use a third party service, Google Analytics, to collect standard internet log information and details of visitor behaviour patterns. We do this to find out things such as the number of visitors to the various parts of the site. This information is only processed in a way which does not identify anyone.

8. Disclosure of your personal data

We do not share your personal data with anyone.

9. Third-party links

Our website includes links to other websites. Clicking on those links may allow others to collect or share data about you. We do not control these third-party websites and are not responsible for their privacy statements.

10. The legal basis we rely on to process personal data

Our legal basis for processing personal data is 'contractual'.

This means we either have a contract with you and we need to process your personal data in order to fulfill the contract, or it means you've contacted us about a possible contract, ie asked us to provide a quote, and we need to process your personal data to do what you ask.

11. Data retention and your legal rights

Because of the nature of our work, in some cases, our contract with you is ongoing. To this end, we will keep your personal data for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes of the ongoing contract.

You have rights under data protection laws in relation to your personal data, eg

The right to be informed – that’s an obligation on us to inform you how we use your personal data (and that’s what we’re doing in this privacy policy);
The right of access – that’s a right to make what’s known as a ‘data subject access request’ for copy of the personal data we hold about you;
The right to rectification – that’s a right to make us correct personal data about you that may be incomplete or inaccurate;
The right to erasure – that’s also known as the ‘right to be forgotten’ where in certain circumstances you can ask us to delete the personal data we have about you (unless there’s an overriding legal reason we need to keep it)

You can see a lot more information on these rights on the UK Information Commissioner’s Office website:

Danny Sperling is responsible for overseeing questions in relation to this privacy policy. If you have any questions about this privacy policy, including any requests to exercise your legal rights, please contact him on danny@mintyhighway.com.

You have the right to make a complaint at any time to the Information Commissioner's Office (“ICO”), the UK supervisory authority for data protection issues (www.ico.org.uk). We would, however, appreciate the chance to deal with your concerns before you approach the ICO, so please contact us in the first instance.

12. Changes to this privacy policy

The General Data Protection Regulation is new and the ICO is still issuing new bits of guidance about how businesses should follow it. So, you may see updates to our privacy policy over the coming months. Be sure to check in and have read every now and then. Thank you.
