1. Controller
The controller responsible for processing personal data in connection with this website is:
Privacy-related requests can be submitted through the contact page. Please identify the request as a data-protection matter so it can be routed appropriately.
2. Data processed when you use the website
When the website is accessed, technical data may be processed by the hosting and network infrastructure required to deliver the site securely. Depending on the production hosting environment, this can include IP address, date and time of access, requested URL, referrer information, browser and operating-system information, and technical connection or error data.
This data is used to deliver the website, maintain security and availability, diagnose faults, and prevent misuse. The legal basis is the legitimate interest in operating a secure and reliable corporate website under Article 6(1)(f) GDPR.
3. Project enquiries and business communications
If you contact BLENWICK about a project, product, service, procurement requirement, or other business matter, the company may process information you provide such as your name, company, business email address, telephone number, project location, requirement category, message content, and related correspondence.
The purposes are to assess and respond to the enquiry, prepare or discuss possible services or supply, coordinate follow-up communication, and manage the resulting business relationship. Depending on the context, processing is based on steps taken at your request before entering into a contract under Article 6(1)(b) GDPR, compliance with legal obligations under Article 6(1)(c), and/or legitimate interests in B2B communication and relationship management under Article 6(1)(f).
The current front-end project form must be connected to an approved submission service before public deployment. Data is only transmitted when such a transmission channel is configured and used.
4. Recipients and service providers
Personal data is shared only where necessary for the relevant purpose. Recipients may include hosting and IT service providers acting on BLENWICK's behalf, professional advisers, logistics or project partners where required for a specific enquiry, and public authorities where disclosure is legally required.
Service providers processing personal data on behalf of BLENWICK are expected to be bound by appropriate contractual and confidentiality obligations.
5. International transfers
Where a service provider or project recipient is located outside the European Economic Area, personal data will only be transferred where an appropriate legal transfer mechanism applies, such as an adequacy decision or approved contractual safeguards, where required by law.
6. Retention
Personal data is retained only for as long as necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, to manage an active business relationship, to establish or defend legal claims, or to comply with applicable statutory retention obligations. Retention periods may therefore differ depending on the type of communication, project, contract, and legal requirement.
7. Cookies and similar technologies
The current website build does not intentionally deploy analytics, advertising, behavioural profiling, or other non-essential tracking cookies. Details of the current implementation and how any future optional technologies would be handled are set out in the Cookie Policy.
8. Your GDPR rights
Subject to the conditions and limitations set by applicable law, you may have the right to:
- obtain access to your personal data;
- request correction of inaccurate or incomplete data;
- request erasure of personal data;
- request restriction of processing;
- receive data in a portable format where the legal conditions are met;
- object to processing based on legitimate interests; and
- withdraw consent at any time where processing is based on consent, without affecting prior lawful processing.
9. Automated decision-making
The current website does not use solely automated decision-making or profiling that produces legal effects or similarly significant effects for website visitors or project-enquiry contacts.
10. Security
BLENWICK applies organisational and technical measures appropriate to the nature of the website and the information handled. No internet transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure, so sensitive project documents should only be exchanged through an agreed channel suitable for that material.
11. Supervisory authority
You may lodge a complaint with the competent data-protection supervisory authority. In Austria, the authority is the Österreichische Datenschutzbehörde, Barichgasse 40–42, 1030 Wien, Austria, email: dsb@dsb.gv.at.
12. Changes to this policy
This policy may be updated when website functionality, service providers, legal requirements, or processing activities change. The revision date at the top of this page indicates the current published version.
