Below are the for which we use the information we collect about you [as well as the lawful basis for processing for each].

  1. How we store and secure information we collect

Access to our network and apps is controlled by an enterprise level 2 Factor Authentication solution

Our websites have up to date SSL certificates that provide robust authentication and encryption, to reassure you that your data and transactions are secure.

We restrict access to personal information so that only controllers and processors of the data that need it for legitimate business purposes have access to it.

We also have data use policies and training in place to ensure all our staff are responsible with your data and understand their obligation to protect it.

  1. How long we keep information

How long we keep information we collect about you depends on the type of information and the type of interaction you have had with Native, as specified by the retention periods below. Prior to or at the point of the retention period being met, we will either delete or anonymise your information as applicable. Where more than one of the below categories applies to a piece of data, the longest retention period shall be enforced.

In other cases we’ll store personal information for the periods needed for the purposes for which the information was collected or for which it is to be further processed. And sometimes we’ll keep it for longer if we need to by law. Otherwise we delete it.

  1. How Native transfers information we collect internationally

Native does not currently share personal data outside the EU for data related to residential accommodation and tenants, however we are a growing company with plans for expansion outside of the UK. Wherever possible we will minimise sharing data internationally, however it’s possible that we will have legitimate business reasons to do so. If that’s the case we reserve the right to share personal data internationally and will update our Privacy Policy if that becomes the case to reflect this. As with all our providers we will have strict controls in place to make sure it’s properly protected.
