SwimEasy’s commitment
We are fully committed to protecting your privacy. We collect and process personal information about you in accordance with the Data Protection Act 1998 and, in particular, with the notification which we have made to the Data Protection Commissioner under that Act.
Changes to Data Protection Legislation.
On 25 May 2018 the new General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) gives individuals more control over how personal information is used and imposes tighter obligations on SwimEasy who use your personal data. GDPR is an essential requirement for companies who deal with personal data and relates only to a living individual who can be identified from that data. Given the change to the privacy laws we have made the required changes to our Terms and Conditions.
