Data collection policy

Web application:

Any personal identifiable data entered into the THRIFT web application is saved locally. No data is sent from the desktop application. Data will therefore be protected via the security of the laptop / desktop used by the client.

How Long Do We Hold Data For?

THRIFT TECHNOLOGY LTD only retains data for as long as it is strictly required. This means data that you provide through the contact form is held for 12 months. After this time all stored data will be removed from our live systems. Prior to removal we will attempt to contact you to inform you.

In order to operate a reliable system and to avoid data loss we perform regular encrypted backups of the system. These backups are retained for up to 90 days, and after this time are removed. This means that a removed account will be completely removed from all backups 90 days after removal.

THRIFT TECHNOLOGY LTD will not sell or rent your information to third parties, and we do not share information for marketing purposes with any third parties.

Where such a relationship is in place there are contractual safeguards in place to protect your information. THRIFT TECHNOLOGY LTD will only share data that is relevant to the tasks being completed and to the delivery of service to you, and where possible the data will be anonymised. None of these organisations and individuals are permitted to use the data for any other purpose. These third parties include:

How Will We Keep Your Data Secure?

THRIFT TECHNOLOGY LTD applications do not host any personal identifiable information.

THRIFT TECHNOLOGY LTD has been designed with a privacy first development methodology meaning that we follow a rigorous development process which places the security of personal information at its core. To that end we host our application and website using a GDPR compliant cloud data provider hosting the application and site in the UK. All of our services run over HTTPS using TLS ensuring data transmitted between the application/website and our servers is secure. Data you provide to us which is stored is encrypted when it is stored, and in any backups taken. We take lengths to ensure that the network environment in which the application/website is hosted is kept secure by following best practices and ensuring that security updates are applied in a timely fashion.

How Do We Support Your Rights?

We will not contact you for marketing purposes by email unless you have given your prior consent. You can change your marketing preferences at any time by contacting us by email: thrift-team@wearenova.co.uk

The accuracy of your information is important to us. If you change email address, or any of the other information we hold is inaccurate or out of date and you cannot already change it in the app, please email us at thrift-team@wearenova.co.uk

You have the right to ask for a copy of the information THRIFT TECHNOLOGY LTD holds about you.
