Overview

We respect your privacy and seek to protect your personal data at all times. This privacy notice describes how we look after your personal data when you visit our website or contact us. This includes any data you provide when you fill in a form, sign up to our newsletter, request a product demonstration or a copy of a resource such as a whitepaper.

We only use your personal information to respond to an enquiry about our products and services, or to better provide our products and services. That means we do not sell information or lists to other organisations under any circumstances.

Who we are

Workpro is developed by Computer Application Services Ltd (referred to as CAS). CAS is the data controller and responsible for your personal data.

Our address is Computer Application Services Ltd, Quantum Court, Heriot-Watt Research Park South, Edinburgh, EH14 4AP.

For all data matters contact Data Protection Officer Ken Naismith via info@casltd.com or call +44 (0)131 449 7071.

Your personal information

You may give us personal data by filling in forms or by corresponding with us by post, phone, email or otherwise. This includes when you:

  • Request a demonstration
  • Submit an enquiry form on our website
  • Subscribe to our newsletter
  • Request information to be sent to you.

Personal data is any information about an individual from which that person can be identified. We may collect, use, store and transfer the following kinds of personal data about you:

  • Identity Data including first name/last name/ title.
  • Contact Data including organisation name and address, your email address and telephone numbers.

We may also use aggregated data such as statistical or demographic data. This is not personal data as it does not directly or indirectly reveal your identity. For example, we collect usage data to determine how many people have accessed a certain webpage.

We do not collect any Special Categories of Personal Data about you. We do not collect details about your race or ethnicity, religious or philosophical beliefs, sexual orientation, political opinions, trade union membership, health or any criminal convictions and offences.

How we use your data

We only use your personal data when the law allows us to. The following describes how we use your data and the legal bases for this:

  • Performance of Contract - where it is necessary for the performance of a contract with you, for example providing support or product updates. It also includes taking steps at your request before entering into such a contract, for example, responding to an enquiry, arranging a product demonstration, or providing further information about our company, product or service.
  • Consent – where clear, informed agreement has been given, for example, if you have opted to receive product news from us by filling in our subscriber form or selected relevant tick boxes located on our contact forms.
  • Comply with a legal or regulatory obligation - where it is necessary for compliance with a legal or regulatory obligation that we are subject to.
  • Legitimate Interest – where it is necessary to conduct and manage our business, and to enable us to give you the best product and service, including a secure experience. This covers marketing communications as detailed below.

Marketing

You will receive marketing communications from us if you have requested information from us or purchased products or services from us or subscribed to our newsletter - unless you have opted out.

You can ask us to stop sending you marketing messages at any time by following the unsubscribe links on any marketing message sent to you or by emailing us at info@workpro.com.

If you opt out of receiving these marketing messages, please note that personal data necessary for the performance of a contract will continue to be stored. Customers with whom we have a contracted business relationship are added to a Customer List which is used for communication of product and company news.
