Why is it being collected?

In order for VI Distribution to respond to orders and enquiries made by active and prospective customers and to ensure that we can continue to improve our service we record and hold data, some of which will be specifically associated with an individual.

We would like to reassure our customers that this data is only being collected in order for VI Distribution Limited to undertake its business transactions and normal commercial activities, and is never sold or shared with third parties other than for the purpose of completing a contractual transaction, or legal obligation.   

What information is being collected and how is it collected and how will it be used?

Our primary reason for holding the data in our central database (which is also our accounting system) is to complete business transactions such as;

  • Responding to queries and requests
  • Completion of quotes, sales orders or purchase orders
  • To communicate with you information relating to the company and our business
  • To provide services and support for our products
  • Marketing activities, as long as you have consented to do so.
  • To customise and improve the way you purchase or supply us in the future.
  • For collection or payment of invoices and any other account related transactions.

The majority of the information collected for the above that constitutes personal data is name, address, email address, contact telephone number and credit rating of our existing customers, supplier and parties that have shown an interest in becoming a future customer or supplier.

This data may be collected by any member of the VI team through means of;

  • When you send us a sales or purchase order.
  • When you complete the relevant credit application form
  • Meetings, Exhibitions & Networking events, where you have provided us with your details.

Who will the information be shared with and who has access to this information?

Most importantly, we never sell your personal information to anyone and only share it as outlined in this Privacy policy or when you ask us to.

We share your personal information with certain third parties who provide services on our behalf. They only have access to the personal information they need to perform those services and they are required to keep your personal information confidential.

The third parties who provide services on our behalf fall into the following categories:

We will also share your personal information if we are required to do so by law.

How is your data protected?      

We are committed to protecting your personal information. We use appropriate technical and organisational measures, to protect your personal information and privacy, and review those regularly.

We also ensure that our staff are adequately trained in protecting your personal information.

How long is the data kept?

We only keep your personal information for as long as we need to, and for not more than 5 years, to be able to use it for the reasons given in this Privacy policy, or for as long as we are required to keep it by law.

How can you change the way we contact you about our products?
