  • File encryption on all database servers with restricted file access
  • Two factor authentication (TFA) on all critical services
  • Data encryption between services within our Systems and provided by third parties

We repeatedly review our security measures and add additional measures wherever possible to continue to increase our security.

8. How Long Will You Keep My Personal Data?

We will not keep your personal data for any longer than is necessary in light of the reason(s) for which it was first collected. At the end of that retention period, your data will either be completely deleted or anonymised, such as by aggregating data together so it can be utilised in a non-identifiable way for statistical analysis and business planning. For example, we may retain your personal information for the length of your warranty period, so we can comply with our legal and contractual obligations to you.

9. How and Where Do You Store or Transfer My Personal Data?

Sometimes we need to share your personal data with third parties. Where information is transferred, we have procedures in place to ensure that your Personal data is treated as safely and securely as if it were our own processes processing the data. For example, our contracts with those third parties stipulate the standards they must follow at all times.

10. Do You Share My Personal Data?

We may sometimes share your personal data with other companies in our group in order to provide you with the Products and Services that our Group of Companies offer. This includes subsidiaries, our holding company and its subsidiaries.

In other cases, we may sometimes have to share your personal data with third parties who facilitate us in providing our products and services to you. We restrict the information shared to only the Personal Information required for them to fulfil their services to us. These companies can include:

  • IT companies who support our website, our applications and other business systems
  • Operational companies, delivery couriers
  • Web analytics companies such as Google who help us to improve our website and applications

11. How Can I Access 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 address shown in Part 12. There is not normally any charge for a subject access request.

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.

12. How Do I Contact You?

To contact us about anything to do with your personal data and data protection, including to make a subject access request, please contact us on enquiries@aico.co.uk

13. If You Live Outside The UK

By using our services or providing your personal data to us, you expressly consent to the processing of your personal data by us or on our behalf. This doesn’t stop you from exercising your rights. Where possible we will try to retain your personal data within your country of residence, however, in the ordinary course of business, we may transfer your personal data to ourselves and third parties located in the UK. This may occur because our IT storage facilities and servers are located outside of your country of residence and could include storage of personal data on servers in the UK.

The Declaration of Performance

The Construction Products Regulation EU No 305/2011 (CPR) came into force on 1st July 2013. The Regulations require all stakeholders in the manufacture and distribution of construction products to provide reliable information in relation to the performances of their products. Specifically, when placing a product on the market place, the manufacturer will be required to a) make a Declaration of Performance (DoP) for the product and b) affix the CE mark.

The Declaration of Performance is available for download below and describes the performance of our products to the relevant harmonised European Standard (hEN).

All products are tested by a 3rd Party independent Notified Body (NB) to the requirements of the harmonised European Standard (hEN) and together with the DoP permits the affixation of the CE mark to the products.
