Agile Relocations – Data Protection Policy

 

Introduction

Agile Relocations collects and uses personal data relating to clients, suppliers, partners,
employees, and other contacts. This policy explains how we collect, handle, and protect
this data to comply with legal requirements and maintain our high standards of privacy and
security.

Purpose of This Policy

This policy ensures Agile Relocations:

  • Complies with relevant data protection laws and best practices
  • Safeguards the rights of individuals whose data we process
  • Is transparent about how personal data is used and stored
  • Protects the company against risks associated with data breaches

 

Data Protection Legislation

Data protection laws set out strict rules about how personal data must be handled —
whether stored digitally, on paper, or other formats. Agile Relocations commits to:

  • Collecting and using data fairly and lawfully
  • Keeping data safe and secure
  • Not disclosing data improperly


These laws are based on eight key principles, meaning personal data must:

  1. Be processed lawfully, fairly, and transparently
  2. Be collected only for specific and legitimate purposes
  3. Be relevant and limited to what is necessary
  4. Be accurate and kept up to date
  5. Not be kept longer than necessary
  6. Be processed in line with individual rights
  7. Be kept secure with appropriate safeguards
  8. Not be transferred to countries without adequate protection

This policy applies to:

  • All Agile Relocations offices and operations
  • All employees, contractors, and third parties working on our behalf
  • All personal data relating to identifiable individuals, including:
    • Names
    • Contact details (addresses, emails, phone numbers)
    • Employment and financial information
    • Any other personally identifiable information

 

Risks Covered by This Policy

We use this policy to help prevent risks such as:

  • Unauthorized disclosure of confidential information
  • Improper use of data without individual consent
  • Damage to our reputation caused by data breaches or hacks

 

Responsibilities

Everyone working with Agile Relocations has a role in protecting personal data. Key
responsibilities include:

  • Data Protection Contact Person: A designated staff member (appointed by
    management) will oversee compliance, update management on data risks, arrange
    training when needed, handle subject access requests, and review contracts
    involving personal data.
  • IT Responsibilities: Outsourced IT provider or nominated internal staff member is responsible for ensuring network and system security, malware protection, monitoring data storage systems, and evaluating third-party data services.
  • Management Team: Ensures that all company communications (including marketing) comply with data protection laws and approves any updates to this policy.
  • All Staff: Must follow this policy, safeguard data, and report any concerns immediately.

 

General Staff Guidelines

  • Access personal data only if necessary for your work.
  • Do not share confidential data informally—request access via proper channels.
  • Keep physical and electronic data secure, especially when working remotely.
  • Use strong, unique passwords and never share them.
  • Do not send personal data via unsecured email; encrypt data before electronic
    transfer.
  • Regularly review and update personal data, deleting any that is no longer needed.
  • Seek guidance if unsure about any aspect of data protection.
