Recipients of personal data

It will be necessary for us to process or share all or some of your personal data withour website host and advertisers.

Retention period and criteria used to determine the retention period

We will retain some elements of your personal data for varying periods of time depending on the services that we provide you, prospective tenants for up to three months; prospective purchasers for up to six months; landlords, tenants, vendors and purchasers for as long as is required to fulfil our legal and contractual obligations or legitimate interests.

You have a right of access to check your personal data to verify the lawful basis of processing. We are obliged to respond to an access request within 30 days and may not charge a fee unless the request is unfounded, excessive or repetitive. If a fee is charged it is to be a reasonable fee based upon the administrative cost of providing the information. You have a right to rectification if the data we hold is either inaccurate or incomplete. If your data has been disclosed to third parties then we must inform them of the rectification, where possible.

You have a right to require erasure of your data when consent is our basis of processing (the right to be forgotten). You may request that your personal data be erased, for example, where there is no compelling reason for its continued processing or where you withdraw consent. We will comply with your request unless we have another basis of processing justifying our retaining the data (for example a legal requirement or the defence of a legal claim).

You have some rights to ask us to restrict processing i.e. to block or supress processing where, for example, the data may be incorrect and whilst the accuracy is verified. We are permitted to store the data.

Your right to object

"We have lived in Kew for 40 years. We have used Hallett & Co. to purchase one property, to rent two properties and to manage a block of flats where we are on the Management Board. In all this work they have shown great effectiveness, very good value for money, and exemplary attention to detail. They are a family firm, trustworthy and we recommend them very highly indeed."
Mr. J. Morris
