Withdrawing consent or otherwise objecting to direct marketing

 

Wherever we rely on your consent, you will always be able to withdraw that consent, although we may have other legal grounds for processing your data for other purposes, such as those set out above.

 

How we share your personal data

 

Personal data will be shared with third party service providers, who will process it on our behalf for the purposes identified above. In particular, to help us store your details, manage your account and communicate with you.

We use PayPal as a payment services provider. Where you pay for our services through PayPal, it will act as a controller of your data. We recommend that you review PayPal’s privacy policy to understand how it will use your data, and how you can exercise your data subject rights for PayPal’s processing of your data.

In the event that Just Energy is sold or integrated with another business, your details may be disclosed to our advisers and any prospective purchaser’s adviser and will be passed to the new owners of the business. 

We will only transfer your data outside of the UK/ EEA to organizations in countries which are subject to an adequacy decision by the EU Commission or considered adequate as determined by applicable data protection laws (for example your data is collected directly by Just Energy Inc which is a commercial organization in Canada and therefore benefits from an adequacy decision) or where we have put into place appropriate measures (such as European Commission approved Standard Contractual Clauses or a supplier’s binding corporate rules).

 

Your choices and rights

 

You have certain rights in relation to the data we process about you. To exercise certain rights you can fill out the forms linked to below (alternatively, you can email  support@terrapass.co.uk.)

You have the right to do the following:

 

  • ask us for a copy of your personal data
  • to delete your data
  • to obtain the personal data you provide in a structured, machine readable format

Please identify yourself via e-mail

Send an email to support@terrapass.co.uk in order to do any of the following:

  • to correct your data
  • to restrict processing of your personal data
  • In addition, you can object to the processing
  • To obtain a copy of any correspondence that you have sent to us

If you would like to exercise the above rights with respect to data that we process about you outside of the context of the website (for example, in the context of customer support) please contact us by [insert contact information, e.g. by using the email address in the Contract us section below].

These rights may be limited, for example if fulfilling your request would reveal personal data about another person, or if you ask us to delete information which we are required by law or have compelling legitimate interests to keep. For example, if you ask us to erase your data, we will not be able to delete data that we hold on back-up systems as this would compromise our ability to restore our services in the event of a disaster. In this case, we will restrict the processing of our data to what is needed to maintain our back-up systems. If you have unresolved concerns, you have the right to complain to a data protection authority where you live, work or believe a breach has taken place. In the UK this is the Information Commissioner’s Office; please click here for detail.

 

Data that is mandatory is indicated on relevant forms that you complete. Where provision of data is mandatory, if relevant data is not provided, then we will not be able to fulfil your requests to register, make a purchase from Terrapass or otherwise engage with Just Energy. All other provision of your information is optional.

Where we process personal data for marketing purposes or with your consent, we process the data for 3 years from when the consent was collected or until you ask us to stop (whichever is sooner). Should you ask us to stop we shall process our data for a short time afterwards to allow us to implement your requests. We also keep a record of the fact that you have asked us not to send you direct marketing or to process your data so that we can respect your request in future.
