C:Pesa® Privacy Policy

Carbon Pesa Limited (“C:Pesa®”), is a private limited company registered in England and Wales with registered number 13779755, whose registered office is at 6 Brookshill Gate, 55 Brookshill, Harrow Weald, Middlesex, United Kingdom HA3 6RU, which controls and operates the C:Pesa® Website. 

C:Pesa® respects your privacy and is committed to protecting your personal data and wants you to feel comfortable using this website (“C:Pesa® Website”). This privacy policy (as amended, updated or replaced from time to time, the “C:Pesa® Privacy Policy” or “this privacy policy”) is issued on behalf of C:Pesa® so when we mention “C:Pesa®”, “we”, “us” or “our” in this notice, we are referring to C:Pesa® which is responsible for processing your data. For the purposes of this C:Pesa® Website and applicable data protection legislation, C:Pesa® is the controller.

This privacy policy states what data we may collect and how we may use that information and that the data we hold about you should be processed lawfully and fairly. It should be accurate, relevant and not excessive. The information should be kept up to date, where necessary, and not retained for longer than necessary. It should be kept securely to prevent unauthorised access by other people. You have the right to see what is held about you and to correct any inaccuracies. 

Wherever we talk about Personal Data below (“Personal Data”), we mean any information that can either itself identify you as an individual (“Personally Identifying Information”) or that can be connected to you indirectly by linking it to Personally Identifying Information.

By using the Company’s website, you signify your assent to the C:Pesa’s® Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with C:Pesa’s® Privacy Policy, please do not use the C:Pesa® Website.

Your Personal Data is protected in the UK by the General Data Protection Regulation (Regulation (EU) 2016/679) (the “UK GDPR”) and the Data Protection Act 2018 (together the “Data Protection Legislation”), including any subsequent amending, supplemental or replacement legislation and other legislation in other territories. This provides, amongst other things, that the Personal Data we hold about you should be processed lawfully and fairly. 

If you have any questions about the C:Pesa’s® Privacy Policy or our privacy practices, including any requests to exercise your legal rights, please contact us using the email box: contactus@c-pesa.com.

Depending on where you are resident or otherwise located, you have the right to make a complaint any time to the relevant national supervisory authority for data protection issues. In the UK, for example, you can make a complaint at any time to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) (https://ico.org.uk). We would, however, appreciate the opportunity to deal with any concerns you may have before you approach any national supervisory authority, so please contact us in the first instance. 

There will be times, such as when you request information or contact us, when we will need to obtain personally identifiable information from you or about you. To respond to your query effectively, we may collect, use, store and transfer the following kinds of personal data about you: 

We also collect, use and share Aggregated Data. “Aggregated Data” means statistical or demographic data about several individuals that has been combined to show general trends or values without identifying individuals within the data. Aggregated Data could be derived from your Personal Data but is not considered personal data in law as this data will not directly or indirectly reveal your identity. 

For example, we may use your Usage Data to calculate the percentage of users accessing a specific website feature. However, if we combine or connect Aggregated Data with your Personal Data so that it can directly or indirectly identify you, we treat the combined data as Personal Data which will be used in accordance with this privacy policy.

We do not collect any “Special Categories of Personal Data” (as defined in Article 9(1) of the UK GDPR) about you. This includes details about your race or ethnicity, religious or philosophical beliefs, sexual orientation, political opinions, trade union membership, information about your health, and genetic and biometric data. Nor do we collect any information about criminal convictions and offences.

We may use artificial intelligence tools, automated systems and data enrichment services to enhance our Services and improve your user experience. This includes processing your personal data (such as your usage patterns, company information, and engagement data) through AI systems to generate insights, personalise content, and create analytics reports. We may combine your data with information from third-party sources to better understand your professional interests and deliver more relevant services. 

We also use AI and data enrichment to create aggregate, anonymised reports showing readership patterns by firm type, sector, and geographic location for our readers and commercial partners. Such processing is based on our legitimate interests in improving our Services and providing valuable market insights, while ensuring appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your personal data. 

Our AI systems may make automated decisions that significantly affect you, including credit assessments, transaction approvals, and trading recommendations. Under data protection law, you have specific rights regarding automated decision-making: the right to be informed when automated processing significantly affects you, the right to request human review of automated decisions, the right to object to certain automated processing (though this may limit service availability), and the right to understand the logic behind automated decisions that impact the user. 
We process your data through AI systems based on different legal grounds: contract performance for service delivery, and legitimate interests for business optimization, commercial data product development, and third-party data licensing in anonymized form. To exercise these automated decision-making rights, contact: contactus@c-pesa.com .

Where we need to collect Personal Data by law, or under the terms of a contract we have with you, and you fail to provide that data when requested, we may not be able to perform the contract we have or are trying to enter into with you (for example, to provide you with services). In this case, we have to cancel a service you have with us but we will notify you if this is the case at the time. 

C:Pesa® has obtained your data because you have provided this data to us.

Your Personal Data will not be sold, rented or provided by us to any other third parties unless you have agreed otherwise. 

We have set out below, in a table format, a description of all the ways we plan to use your Personal Data, and which of the legal bases we rely on to do so. We have also identified what our legitimate interests are where appropriate. 

Note that we may process your Personal Data for more than one lawful ground depending on the specific purpose for which we are using your data. Please contact us if you need details about the specific legal ground we are relying on to process your Personal Data where more than one ground has been set out in the table below. 

We share your Personal Data within the C:Pesa® group and our commercial partners globally. Given the location of C:Pesa’s® international group companies, your Personal Data may be transferred outside the United Kingdom or the European Economic Area (“EEA”) and where necessary, to affiliate group companies, including our subsidiary and affiliates in Kenya and other jurisdictions where we conduct business or data processing activities.

Whenever we transfer your Personal Data out of the United Kingdom or EEA, we implement appropriate safeguards including standard contractual clauses, international data transfer agreements, or other approved data transfer mechanisms wherever required, adequacy decisions for approved jurisdictions, additional contractual protections and technical safeguards, and regular assessments of data protection standards in recipient countries in order to ensure that your rights as a data subject are complied with in accordance with all applicable laws and that effective legal remedies are available. We may also transfer anonymized and aggregated data globally without geographic restrictions to support our commercial data products, AI model development, and third-party licensing activities, as such data does not identify individuals and is not subject to international transfer restrictions.

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

In addition, we limit access to your Personal Data to those employees, agents, contractors and other third parties who have a business need-to-know. They will only process your Personal Data on our instructions, and they are subject to a duty of confidentiality. 

While we cannot ensure that loss, misuse or alteration will not occur, we have put in place procedures to deal with any suspected Personal Data breach and will notify you and any applicable regulator of a breach where we are legally required to do so. 

We will only retain your Personal Data for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, regulatory, tax, accounting or reporting requirements. We may retain your Personal Data for a longer period in the event of a complaint or if we reasonably believe there is a prospect of litigation in respect to our relationship with you. 

To determine the appropriate retention period for Personal Data, we consider the amount, nature and sensitivity of the Personal Data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure of your Personal Data, the purposes for which we process your Personal Data and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal, regulatory, tax, accounting or other requirements. 

We implement industry-standard security measures including encryption, access controls, and breach detection systems. We maintain documented procedures to respond to suspected data breaches and will notify you and applicable regulators as legally required.

While we employ robust technical and organizational safeguards, no electronic system can guarantee absolute security. We work continuously to enhance our security measures in line with evolving threats and regulatory requirements. 

C:Pesa® may process and retain anonymized, aggregated, and derivative datasets created from your data. We may use such datasets as we consider appropriate from time to time, including, for example (but without limitation), to:
