We require this information to understand your needs and provide you with a better service and in particular, for the following reasons:

Internal record keeping.
We may use the information to improve our products and services.
We may periodically send emails about new services, opportunities or other information which we think you may find interesting using the email address which you have provided.
From time to time, we may also use your information to contact you for market research purposes. We may contact you by email, phone, or mail. We may use the information to customise the website according to your interests.

We are committed to ensuring that your information is secure. In order to prevent unauthorised access or disclosure, we have put in place suitable physical, electronic and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect online.

We will never collect additional information about you without informing you of this beforehand.

We do not collect any sensitive personal data as defined by the General Data Protection Regulation or Data Protection Act 2018.

The data we hold will be accurate and up to date. You can check the information that we hold about you by emailing us. If you find any inaccuracies, we will delete or correct it promptly. If you do not wish to receive information on an on-going basis about our services or activities, please email admin@miris-int.com with the subject heading: ‘Unsubscribe’.

We keep information for as long as we need for the purposes for which it was collected. This will vary depending on the type of information. Information collected via our website will be held for six months before it is deleted.

Accessing ‘My’ Personal Data

If you want to know what personal data we have about you, you can ask us for details of that personal data and for a copy of it (where any such personal data is held). This is known as a “subject access request”.

All subject access requests should be made in writing and sent to the email or postal addresses shown in the ‘your rights’ section. To make this as easy as possible for you, a ‘Subject Access Request Form’ is available for you to use and can be requested from admin@miris-int.com

You do not have to use this form and can submit your request in writing, but it is the easiest way to tell us everything we need to know to respond to your request as quickly as possible.

There is not normally any charge for a subject access request. If your request is ‘manifestly unfounded or excessive’ (for example, if you make repetitive requests) a fee may be charged to cover our administrative costs in responding.

We will respond to your subject access request within one month of receiving it. Normally, we aim to provide a complete response, including a copy of your personal data within that time. In some cases, however, particularly if your request is more complex, more time may be required up to a maximum of three months from the date we receive your request. You will be kept fully informed of our progress.

Such aggregate information helps us to audit usage of our website and improve the service provided. Information collected via our website will be held for one year before it is deleted.
We use software tools to analyse traffic to this website. We collect only aggregate data, which cannot be used to identify you and does not create individual profiles for visitors.
