Privacy & Cookies - Our promise to you

At 91ƵAPP, we are committed to protecting the privacy and security of our customers and site visitors. We will always strive to keep your data safe and secure. Our Privacy Policy outlines exactly why we need your data and how we use it. If you have any questions or concerns relating to the privacy of your data, please contact us at info@graphcore.ai. For all our services, the data controller (the company responsible for your privacy) 91ƵAPP Limited.

Information Collection 

Our site uses mail forms to fulfill customer requests for information. We collect contact information (names, email addresses and company names, for example) submitted voluntarily from the mail forms. We do not collect or store any type of personal or sensitive data which has not been submitted voluntarily. We do maintain usage logs that allow us to help monitor how visitors are using our web site so that we may better assess their needs.

We use third-party service providers to monitor traffic patterns to show how and when visitors use our site. These monitoring technologies may use cookies where authorized by 91ƵAPP. This information is used to improve site design and enhance the visitor experience. The information collected by these means is anonymous and does not personally identify the visitor. Note that browser Privacy Options may offer user control over the acceptance of both first and third party cookies.

How we use your information

We use your information for a variety of reasons. Some of these include but are not limited to; to provide information to our customers, to send you our newsletter and invitations to events, to provide you with product updates or to reply to a job application submitted to us.

If you choose to provide us with information about yourself by applying for a job at 91ƵAPP and sending your CV, we will ensure it is held securely for a maximum of 6 months. It may be accessed from 91ƵAPP locations, as required for recruitment purposes, by personnel with appropriate privileges. Personal data may be shared with external organisations as required to facilitate the recruitment process. 

Sharing your information

We do not, and will not, sell any of your personal information data to any third party. We value our customers trust and loyalty.

However, we share your data with some companies as an essential part of being able to effectively provide all of our services to you. These companies include our Customer Service platform provider – to provide a customer ticketing system and our marketing platform provider – to send you email updates and product news, for example. You can contact us at info@graphcore.ai for a full list of these third parties.

Marketing Messages

If you have asked to receive email updates such as our newsletter, invitations to events and webinars or product information, we’ll send them to you until you tell us otherwise. If you’d like to stop receiving marketing messages from us, you can do so at any time by:

- Clicking on the ‘unsubscribe’ link in any email
- By contacting us at info@graphcore.ai

Once you do this, we’ll make sure you don’t receive any further marketing messages from us. Please note that it may take a few days to fully update all of our systems and process your request, so you may receive an email during that process. Please note, if you have multiple email addresses you will need to unsubscribe each email address individually. Stopping marketing messages will not stop customer communications, if you use 91ƵAPP products.

Keeping your information

We’ll hold onto your information for up to 2 years or as long as we need it in order to provide our services to you. We may keep hold of some of your information as required, if it is reasonably necessary to meet legal requirements, prevent fraud or enforce our terms and conditions.

Changes to how we protect your privacy

We may update this page from time to time, to ensure you are fully informed about how we are processing your data. If we make significant updates to our policy, we will contact you by email so that you can review any upcoming changes before you continue to use our services.

4. How we will use information about you

4.1. We need the categories of information in the list above primarily because they are necessary for assessing your suitability for employment, entering into a potential contractual relationship with you and to enable us to comply with legal obligations. The situations in which we will process your personal information are listed below:

4.5. We will only use your personal information for the purposes for which we collected it. Occasionally we may reasonably consider that we need to use it for another reason compatible with the original purpose.

If we need to use your personal information for an unrelated purpose, we will notify you and we will explain the legal basis which allows us to do so.

7. Data security

7.1. We have put in place appropriate security measures to prevent your personal information from being accidentally lost, used or accessed in an unauthorised way, altered or disclosed.

They will only process your personal information on our instructions, and they are subject to a duty of confidentiality.

7.2. We have put in place procedures to deal with any suspected data security breach and will notify you and any applicable regulator of a suspected breach where we are legally required to do so.

8. Data retention

8.1. We will retain your personal information for as long as necessary to complete the recruitment process. This will include retaining information so that we can show, in the event of a legal claim, that we have not discriminated against candidates on prohibited grounds and that we have conducted the recruitment exercise in a fair and transparent way. For unsuccessful candidates, we will then securely destroy your personal information after six (6) months. For successful candidates, your application and recruitment information will transfer across to your employee folder.

8.2. If we wish to retain your personal information on file, on the basis that a further opportunity may arise in future and we may wish to consider you for that, we will write to you separately, seeking your explicit consent to retain your personal information for a fixed period on that basis.

9.2.2. Request correction of the personal information that we hold about you. This enables you to have any incomplete or inaccurate information we hold about you corrected.

9.2.3. Object to processing of your personal information where we are relying on a legitimate interest (or those of a third party) and there is something about your particular situation which makes you want to object to processing on this ground. You also have the right to object where we are processing your personal information for direct marketing purposes.

9.2.4. Request the restriction of processing of your personal information. This enables you to ask us to suspend the processing of personal information about you, for example if you want us to establish its accuracy or the reason for processing it.

9.2.5. Request the transfer of your personal information to another party.

9.3. If you want to review, verify, correct or request erasure of your personal information, object to the processing of your personal data, or request that we transfer a copy of your personal information to another party, please send your request to peopleteam@graphcore.ai

9.4. You will not have to pay a fee to access your personal information (or to exercise any of the other rights). However, we may charge a reasonable fee if your request for access is clearly unfounded or excessive. Alternatively, we may refuse to comply with the request in such circumstances.

9.5. We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access the information (or to exercise any of your other rights). This is another appropriate security measure to ensure that personal information is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it.

10. Right to withdraw consent

In the limited circumstances where you may have provided your consent to the collection, processing and transfer or personal information for a specific purpose, you have the right to withdraw your consent for that specific processing at any time.
