1. Introduction
This Privacy Policy is provided by Conrad Energy Limited, Conrad Energy Group Limited, Conrad Energy Group II Limited and any of their group companies (“we”, “us” and “our”) each of whom are private limited companies registered in England and Wales at Suites D&E Windrush Court, Blacklands Way, Abingdon, OX14 1SY (Registration numbers 09866059, 10867030 & 12881208).
We are independent “controllers” for the purposes of the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018 (collectively referred to as the “Data Protection Laws”). This means we determine the “how” and the “why” of the processing of your Personal Data. We are committed to protecting your privacy and processing your Personal Data fairly and lawfully in compliance with the Data Protection Laws.
In the course of our business we may need to gather and use “Personal Data” about you. Personal Data refers to any information from which you, as a living individual, can be identified, such as your name, contact details and banking details. The purpose of this privacy policy (“Privacy Policy”) is to inform you of how we will process your Personal Data and the measures and processes we have put in place to ensure its adequate protection.
2. Fair and lawful processing
In order to comply with Data Protection Laws, we need to have legal bases for using your Personal Data for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy. For that reason, we will generally only process your Personal Data, where:
- you have given your consent to such processing (which you may withdraw at any time, as detailed at paragraph 9 below);
- the processing is necessary to provide our services to you, or to perform our obligations under a contract we may have with you or your employer (including, for example, a lease), or through this website;
- the processing is necessary for compliance with our legal obligations; and/or
- the processing is necessary for our legitimate interests or those of any third party recipients that receive your personal data (as detailed in paragraphs 5 and 7 below).
By “processing”, we mean the collection, recording, storage, use, disclosure and any other form of operations or dealings with your Personal Data.
Some of the above grounds for processing will overlap and there may be several grounds which justify our use of your Personal Data.

In certain circumstances it will be necessary for you to provide us with your Personal Data, to enable us to manage our operations, to provide services to you or your employer or to comply with our statutory obligations. In other circumstances, it will be at your discretion whether you provide us with Personal Data or not. However, failure to supply any of the Personal Data we request may mean that we are unable to maintain or provide services or products to you or your employer, or otherwise fulfil a contract we may have in place with you or your employer.
We make every effort to maintain the accuracy and completeness of all Personal Data which we store and to ensure your Personal Data is up to date. However, you can assist us with this considerably by promptly contacting us if there are any changes to your Personal Data, or if you become aware that we have inaccurate Personal Data relating to you (see clause 9 below).
