Last updated: March 2023

1.INTRODUCTION

Who are we?

We are Spaze Ltd, a private company incorporated and registered in England & Wales with company number 12962620 whose registered office is at Broadway Court, Brighton Road, Lancing, West Sussex, United Kingdom, BN15 8JT (“Spaze”, “we”, “us” or “our”). Where we decide the means or purposes of processing your personal data, we are the “data controller."

What’s this policy about?

We have developed an application called “Spaze” ("App"), a web-based application for community service organisations (“Community Service Organisations”) and provides certain services which relate to the App, excluding any improvements or additional functionality which we may develop from time to time (and “Services” shall refer to the App and those services). The App enables Community Service Organisations to: (i) log the transactional data about their community services (“Client Services” shall refer to those services) and Service User's personal data (“Service Users” shall refer to individuals procuring the Client Services), which is required for the provision of Client Services; (ii) source and aggregate transactional data and Service User’s historic data for the purpose of monitoring and reporting on the operations of the Community Service Organisation. 

This policy explains how we process your personal data as a data controller in relation to our website (https://spaze.social, the “Website”) and the Services. 

We may make changes to this policy in the future, which will be posted on this page. You should check this page from time to time to ensure you are aware of any changes. Where appropriate we may notify you of changes by email.

Where you interact with those Community Service Organisations which are using our App, they decide the means and purpose of processing your personal data. Please refer to their privacy policies for more information about that processing.

If we can’t resolve your issue, you can also get in touch with the Information Commissioner’s Office at: https://ico.org.uk/concerns (or if you live outside the UK in a European country, you can submit a complaint to the supervisory authority in your country).
