DATA PROTECTION

Who we are:

Telkeda Ltd collects and processes certain types of information about people with whom it deals to operate and carry out its legitimate business purposes. These include current, past and prospective employees, suppliers, associates, and others with whom it communicates.

We may use your personal data for the purposes of marketing and customer service. This personal data is safeguarded in line with the Data Protection Act 2018. Telkeda Ltd regards the lawful and correct treatment of personal data as crucial to successful operations, and to the maintenance of confidence between our customers and ourselves.

To this end Telkeda Ltd fully endorses and adheres to the six data protection principles, as laid out in the Data Protection Act 2018. Telkeda Ltd will ensure that:

  • The first data protection principle is that the processing of personal data for any of the law enforcement purposes must be lawful and fair.
  • The second data protection principle is that—
    (a)  the law enforcement purpose for which personal data is collected on any occasion must be specified, explicit and legitimate, and
    (b)  personal data so collected must not be processed in a manner that is incompatible with the purpose for which it was collected.
  • The third data protection principle is that personal data processed for any of the law enforcement purposes must be adequate, relevant and not excessive in relation to the purpose for which it is processed.
  • The fourth data protection principle is that—
    (a)  personal data processed for any of the law enforcement purposes must
    be accurate and, where necessary, kept up to date,
    and
    (b)  every reasonable step must be taken to ensure that personal data that is inaccurate, having regard to the law enforcement purpose for which it is processed, is erased or rectified without delay.
  • The fifth data protection principle is that personal data processed for any of the law enforcement purposes must be kept for no longer than is necessary for the purpose for which it is processed.
  • The sixth data protection principle is that personal data processed for any of the law enforcement purposes must be so processed in a manner that ensures appropriate security of the personal data, using appropriate technical or organisational measures (and, in this principle, “appropriate security” includes protection against unauthorised or unlawful processing and against accidental loss, destruction or damage).

Google Web Fonts

For uniform representation of fonts, this page uses web fonts provided by Google. When you open a page, your browser loads the required web fonts into your browser cache to display texts and fonts correctly.

For this purpose your browser has to establish a direct connection to Google servers. Google thus becomes aware that our web page was accessed via your IP address. The use of Google Web fonts is done in the interest of a uniform and attractive presentation of our plugin. This constitutes a justified interest pursuant to Art. 6 (1) (f) DSGVO.

If your browser does not support web fonts, a standard font is used by your computer.

Further information about handling user data, can be found at https://developers.google.com/fonts/faq and in Google’s privacy policy at https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/.
