Legal basis for processing
Processing is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is party or in order to take steps at the request of the data subject prior to entering into a
contract; (GDPR Art 6(1)(b))
Processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which the controller is subject; (GDPR Art 6(1)(c))
Where processing requires clear consent we ensure the data subject has given consent to the processing of his or her personal data for one or more specific purposes; (GDPR Art 6(1)(c))
Legitimate interest, data collected in the provision of the service is also used to improve the quality of services to customers; (GDPR Art 6(1)(f))
What Data Do We Collect?
Data protection law defines consent as: “Any freely given, specific, informed and unambiguous indication of the data subject’s wishes by which he or she, by a statement or by a clear affirmative action, signifies agreement to the processing of personal data relating to him or her”.
Optional provision of personal data is not an option in booking a taxi service; it is a requirement of contract fulfillment. Providing the minimum personal data, necessary for service, is deemed as consent.
Where processing is based on consent, Martin Butler Taxis Kilkenny ensure that consent requests are transparent, using plain language. Pre-ticked, opt-out boxes are not used. Consent is always freely given (telephone, in writing – documented affirmative action, email, website, booking app). Evidence of all consent or request for service is retained.
Electronic methods of providing personal data and/or gaining consent (i.e. website or mobile app) are regularly reviewed to ensure that a compliant Privacy Notice is accessible and that consent is clear.
Where consent is obtained through direct telephone call by an individual, we utilise scripts and/or computer systems, using predefined fields, which show the required data to be collected to fulfill the contract request. A record of each phone call is retained as evidence.
We ensure that withdrawing consent is as easy. Consent withdrawal requests are processed immediately and without detriment
