Processing Client Information

 

At LBM we take your privacy seriously and will only use your information to provide the Services you have requested from us as detailed in your Letter of Engagement.  We will only use this information subject to your instructions, data protection legislation, statutory legislation and our duty of confidentiality.

Due to the nature of engagements, LBM processes personal and other data on behalf of clients on a contractual basis. LBM acknowledge its responsibilities as a Data Controller under Irish Data Protection legislation.

As a Data Controller, our clients acknowledge that they are responsible under Irish Data Protection legislation for the personal data that is provided to LBM and should:

  • Apply technical and organisational security measures and take reasonable steps to ensure compliance with those measures.
  • Comply with data protection legislation on all aspects of processing personal data and protecting the rights of data subjects.

As part of the services offered to clients through our engagement, information which our clients give to us may be transferred to countries outside the European Union (“EU”). Where this is the case we will take the necessary steps to ensure the appropriate security measures are taken, so that privacy rights continue to be protected as outlined in this policy.  If our clients use our services while outside the EU, information may be transferred outside the EU to provide those services.

 

Security precautions in place about data collected

When you give us personal information, we take steps to make sure that it is treated securely.

Non-sensitive details (your email address etc.) are sent normally over the Internet, and this can never be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of any information you transmit to us, and you do so at your own risk. Once we receive your information, we make our best effort to ensure its security on our systems.

 

Other websites

Our website contains links to other websites.  This privacy policy only applies to the LBM website so when you link to other websites you should read their separate privacy policies.

LBM retains contacts in Office365. This system contains personal data such as the name, address, email address and phone number. This information is utilised to communicate with contacts. Contacts have the option of opting out of this communication option and / or being removed from our systems at any time. We do not share contacts information with third parties without the consent of the contact.

 

Data Retention – how long do we keep your Personal Data

 We will not retain your Personal Data longer than is necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected. However, we may be required by applicable laws and/or regulations to hold your personal data longer than this period.
