Privacy Policy

We take privacy seriously. This policy explains how VIPnow Ltd protects personal data and how we comply with GDPR.

GDPR Compliant Privacy by Design Secure Processing Data Subject Rights

Introduction

The EU General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) came into force across the European Union on 25th May 2018 and brought the most significant changes to data protection law in two decades. Founded on privacy by design and a risk-based approach, the GDPR was designed to meet the requirements of the digital age.

Modern technology, expanded definitions of personal data, and increased cross-border processing require clear and consistent safeguards. The Regulation aims to standardise data protection laws across the EU, giving individuals stronger rights to access and control their personal information.

Our Commitment

VIPnow Ltd is committed to ensuring the security and protection of the personal information that we process, and to provide a compliant and consistent approach to data protection. We have always maintained a robust data protection program that complies with existing law and the core data protection principles.

We recognise the importance of maintaining and expanding this program to meet the GDPR and related data protection requirements. Our preparation includes developing and implementing appropriate roles, policies, procedures, controls, and measures to ensure maximum and ongoing compliance.
