This Privacy Notice aims to give you information on how we collect and process your personal data in a variety of circumstances including when using our website www.mindmill.co.uk or any associated mindmill domain and any data you may provide through these websites when you use any interactive features such as our Contact forms, Recruitment Systems, Assessments or otherwise. It is important that you read this privacy policy so that you are fully aware of how and why we are using your data. Our website is not intended for children and we do not knowingly collect data relating to children. This version was last updated on the 1st of November 2018.

STANDARD STATEMENT AIM:
This policy aims to protect the individual as well as provide reassurance regarding the confidential treatment of information relating to Mindmill (HR) Software Ltd employees /clients and candidates.

Data protection compliance should be seen as an integral part of employment practises in order to develop a culture in which respect for security and confidentiality of personal/ client data is recognised.

INTRODUCTION
As an HR Technology company MindMill takes our responsibility to safeguard our client data very seriously. Even though user data via our Assessment Platform is almost immediately anonymised and retained only in accordance to the data policies of our clients, we take utmost care to ensure compliance to Data Protection legislation.

BASIC PRINCIPLES
The Data Protection Act 1998 came into force on 24 October 2001, giving effect in UK law to the European Directive on data protection
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) standardizes data protection law across all 28 EU countries and imposes strict new rules on controlling and processing personally identifiable information (PII). GDPR came into force on 25 May 2018
"Data protection by design and by default", means that business processes that handle personal data must be designed and built with consideration of the principles and provide safeguards to protect data (for example, using pseudonymization or full anonymization where appropriate), and use the highest-possible privacy settings by default, so that the data is not available publicly without explicit, informed consent, and cannot be used to identify a subject without additional information stored separately. No personal data may be processed unless it is done under a lawful basis specified by the regulation or unless the data controller or processor has received an unambiguous and individualized affirmation of consent from the data subject. The data subject has the right to revoke this consent at any time. The Acts works in two ways:
Giving individuals (data subjects) certain rights with regard to information held about them
Requiring those who decide how and why individual personal data are processed (data controller) to be open about their use of this data and to comply with the data protection principles in their information handling practises
The Company is registered with the Information Commissioner’s Office under the Act as processors of personal information and will adhere strongly to the principles of the Act and the obligations to act correctly and transparently in how the information held on all employees and clients is processed.
This policy should be considered as complimentary to Company policies and rules regarding computer/ internet, and confidentiality
DATA PROTECTION PRINCIPLES
Central to the Act are eight data protection principles which all data controllers must follow to ensure that personal data is:

Processed lawfully and fairly
Obtained for one or more specified and lawful purpose
Adequate, relevant and not excessive
Accurate and, where necessary, kept up to date
Not kept for longer than is necessary
Secure
Not transferred to countries that do not protect personal data adequately
These principles protect the individual and also make sound business sense (for example, if we send out mailing based upon incorrect or out of date records not only may we be in breach of the act and could annoy clients/ candidates, but we could ultimately waste our own time and money).

OVERALL PRINCIPLES
Your personal information is not processed without your knowledge
Only information relevant to our needs is collected and processed
Your personal information is only seen by those who need to do their jobs
Personal information will only be retained for as long as it is required
Decisions affecting individuals are made on the basis of reliable and up to date information
Your information is protected from unauthorised or accidental disclosure
We will provide you with a copy of your personal information on request
Inaccurate or misleading data will be corrected as soon as possible
Procedures are in place for dealing promptly with any disputes
THE RIGHT OF SUBJECT ACCESS
Under the GDPR, MindMill respects the right of data subjects to access and control their personal data and has provisions in place for:

Access to personal information
Correction and deletion of information
Withdrawal of consent (if processing data on condition of consent)
Data portability
Restriction of processing and objection
Lodging a complaint with the Information Commissioner’s Office
Mindmill (HR) Software Ltd will endeavour to provide:

A copy of the information held
A description of why this information is processed
Who has the right to see this information
And where applicable, the logic involved in arriving at automated decisions based on the information held
Concerns or objections to the information held should be made to the Management, formally in writing
Please note that MindMill may not always be able to allow you to access your information, particularly where disclosure would provide information about another individual
GOALS FOR THIS NOTICE
This document should ensure the governance framework and implicitly ensure that the Information Security Program implements adequate:

Confidentiality
Integrity
Availability and accessibility
Compliance with all relevant laws and regulations
Compliance with all internal requirements, policies and standards
Control and reporting of all of the above.
MANAGEMENT COMMITMENT TO INFORMATION SECURITY
The Board of Directors, the CEO and the other approvers (Head of Operations / Client Service Executive) realize how important Information Security is to Mindmill, and have the responsibility for:

Defining the risk appetite and acceptable risk levels
Budgeting so that risks can be managed according the risk appetite
Publishing and promoting internally the Information Security Policy
Formulating the Business requirements for strategic systems in writing
Defining responsibility for strategic systems including documentation requirements for these
Subjecting Third parties to recurring audits and managing risks for third parties and third-party subcontracting.

DATA CONTROLLER
Users can get in touch if they have questions or concerns about your privacy practices, their personal information, or if they wish to file a complaint. The MindMill data controller can be reached via info@mindmill.co.uk

HOW IS PERSONAL INFORMATION USED/SHARED?
NO personal or personally identifiable information is used/shared within MindMill’s internal processes. Personal and identifiable data is only used or shared by the commissioning client and that information protection falls under the scope and responsibility of the commissioning client, their Privacy Policies and Data Protection process.

MindMill may use anonymized data to create/update Psychometric norms but no identifiable data is kept or used for this purpose.

MARKETING
If you are a customer of ours, we may contact you from time to time by call or email to provide some information about our products or services. You can ask us or third parties to stop sending you marketing messages at any by contacting us, as appropriate, at any time. Where you opt out of receiving these marketing messages, this will not apply to personal data provided to us as a result of a service experience or other transactions.

MindMill does not provide users’ personal data to third parties for marketing purposes. However, should this need arise we will get your express opt-in consent before we share your personal data with any company outside of our own for marketing unrelated to our company.

WHAT LEGAL BASIS DO WE HAVE FOR PROCESSING YOUR PERSONAL DATA?
Mindmill provides a means of capturing and analysing data. The data we collect from you may include personal data as defined by the Data Protection Act 1998 as amended. By providing any data to us through your use of Mindmill (any such data, End User Data), you acknowledge and consent to the End User data being transferred or stored within or outside the EEA. Please note that some places outside the EEA may offer lower levels of data protection than the UK. By submitting End User Data, you agree to this transfer, storing or processing.

WHERE DO WE STORE AND PROCESS PERSONAL DATA?
All MindMill services are cloud-based and servers and databased are hosted in London (UK) with www.webhosting.co.uk. Their specific terms of service can be found and reviewed at https://www.webhosting.uk.com/terms-of-service/

HOW DO WE SECURE PERSONAL DATA?
Enterprise Threat Modelling
Enterprise threat modelling means the exercise of identifying who could be a threat to your organization, what their motives might be and how they would go about accomplishing these motives. It is important to note that threat modelling isn’t something you only do for applications, but something you do for the entire enterprise, hence “enterprise threat modelling”

This threat modelling should include all of the three aspects of the CIA triad and include also for example system failure and manual error. It should model expected or unexpected attackers against the company, their likely TTP (tools, tactics and procedures), their motivation and intent and what they might be likely to do if they breach the company. Using the threat modelling proactively can be used for budgeting investments and for prioritizing tasks in the day to day work by IT and Security personnel.

Based upon risk assessments and risk/consequence estimations preventive, discovering and corrective security controls should be implemented to iteratively until residual risks are within acceptable thresholds i.e. within the risk appetite. The areas to be included in risk assessment are:

Management responsibility
Organization of Information Security
Asset Management
Human resource security
Physical and environmental security
Communications and operations management
Access control
Information systems acquisition, development and maintenance
Information security incident management
Business continuity management
Application Security
All business applications shall be developed using the OWASP SAMM framework for application security.

Data Classification
Different classification levels for assets/systems should be defined, for example:

Public
Internal
Classified
System/Business Application/Infrastructure Prioritization
All systems/business applications/infrastructure should be assigned a business criticality between 1 and 3 where 1 means business critical and 3 means a not very critical system /application /infrastructure element. Example of a criticality rating of 3 could be a test system.

Only the business part of the company can prioritize these appropriately, so it’s a project that Information Security can lead but needs also the approvers and relevant business stakeholders. A list of all relevant systems/business applications/infrastructure with a given priority is required and should be updated annually.

Business Continuity & Business Recovery Planning
To re-establish a business as usual condition following a disaster or a major incident, the company must maintain a Business Continuity Plan and a Business Recovery Plan. The plans must ensure that the company can re-establish systems and data within a predefined time frame. The plans must contain detailed emergency plans for all infrastructure within scope. To accomplish this a scope must be established and approved by the approvers.

The BCP and BRP must be tested at least once per year by for example moving the active systems to the disaster recovery site or by conducting a similar simulation.

The maximum accepted downtime for priority 1 systems is: 2 hours
The maximum accepted downtime for priority 2 systems is: 4 hours
The maximum accepted downtime for priority 3 systems is: 8 to 24 hours
The CEO and/or approvers are responsible for defining acceptable downtime. IT responsible and Information Security responsible are responsible for creating plans that can implement the requirements and testing them.

Continuous improvement
All policies, risk assessments, and controls should be periodically re-evaluated/audited at least annually and whenever appropriate to ensure a continuous improvement of Information Security.

Outsourcing and Vendor Management
The overall goal of defining the rules of outsourcing and vendor management is to:

Retain control of information resources in an outsourcing situation
Manage the handover securely to a partner that has been through the necessary audits/controls/due diligence
Attain the information/tools required to be able to monitor and report on expected significant benefits including any expected financial benefits related to the outsourcing services.
The purpose of this notice is also to satisfy legal and regulatory requirements and to manage the risks involved with outsourcing of significant activities.

Outsourcing should be used:

Only in a situation where this does not in any way impact customers/clients negatively
Strategically to obtain pre-defined significant benefits, the realization of which must be transparently verified and reported on periodically
Only if the process of entering into and handing over responsibility to an outsourcing partner is controlled and managed
HOW LONG DO WE KEEP YOUR PERSONAL DATA FOR?
MindMill complies to and operates as an extension to the Data Retention Policies of its clients and project initiators. As all data entering the Mindmill system belongs to the commissioning client, MindMill operates as an outsourced provider or 3rd party to the commissioning client. MindMill thus only processes data, provides packaged data to the customer and destroy or anonymize the data in accordance the applicable data retention policy.

USE OF AUTOMATED DECISION-MAKING AND PROFILING
In certain instances, MindMill makes use of Automated Decision making in order to streamline workflow and the processing of information.
