Third-party marketing – We will get your express opt-in consent before we share your personal data with any charity or company outside of RunThrough Events for marketing purposes.

Use of Facial Recognition Technology

At RunThrough, we utilise facial recognition technology (FRT) from a third-party provider to enhance the participant experience at our running events. Specifically, FRT allows participants to easily find and access photos of themselves taken by our photographers during the event. We believe that this use of FRT serves a legitimate aim, as it significantly improves the convenience and enjoyment of our events for participants while safeguarding their rights and privacy.

Our Legal Basis for Using FRT

Under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), biometric data (including facial recognition data) is classified as special category personal data. This means that it can only be processed if one of two conditions is met:

1. The data subject has provided active, free, and informed consent.
2. The processing serves a legitimate aim in a proportionate manner.

RunThrough ensures compliance by meeting both conditions:

Active, Free, and Informed Consent: All participants explicitly provide their consent to the use of FRT as part of their event registration process. Information about how FRT is used is provided in clear and accessible terms so that participants can make an informed decision.

Legitimate Aim and Proportionate Use: We use FRT solely to enable participants to access photographs of themselves efficiently and securely. This feature is entirely voluntary and is intended to enhance the participant experience. The use of FRT is strictly limited to this purpose.

Participant Consent and Control

We are committed to providing participants with meaningful control over their data:
- Participation in the FRT process is optional. If participants choose not to use FRT, they can still access event photos through alternative means.
- Participants can withdraw their participation in the FRT process at any time by contacting us.

Safeguards for Your Data

We take the protection of your data seriously. To ensure compliance with GDPR and to respect your rights:
- Facial recognition data is stored securely and only for as long as necessary to fulfill its purpose (i.e., allowing participants to retrieve their event photos).
- We do not share facial recognition data with third parties beyond the technology providers required to facilitate this feature. All providers are subject to rigorous data protection agreements.
- Once the photos have been retrieved or the retention period ends, the associated biometric data is permanently deleted.

Third-Party Provider Details

We work with a trusted third-party provider to deliver the FRT feature. Below are the details of the provider:
Provider Name: Photohawk
Photohawk’s Data Protection Policy: View here.

Your Rights

Participants have full control over their personal data and the right to:
- Access their data and request information on how it is processed.
- Withdraw from the FRT feature at any time.
- Request the deletion of their data.

For further details about our use of FRT or to exercise your rights, please contact our team via info@runthrough.co.uk

If you wish to get an explanation as to how the processing for the new purpose is compatible with the original purpose, please contact us. If we need to use your personal data for an unrelated purpose, we will notify you and we will explain the legal basis which allows us to do so.

Disclosures of your Personal Data

We may have to share your personal data with the parties set out below for the purposes set out in the table above.

• External Third Parties as set out in the Explained Terms section.
• Third parties to whom we may choose to sell, transfer, or merge parts of our business or our assets. Alternatively, we may seek to acquire other businesses or merge with them. If a change happens to our business, then the new owners may use your personal data in the same way as set out in this privacy notice. We require all third parties to respect the security of your personal data and to treat it in accordance with the law. We do not allow our third-party service providers to use your personal data for their own purposes and only permit them to process your personal data for specified purposes and in accordance with our instructions.
• We will transfer your personal data to countries that have been deemed to provide an adequate level of protection for personal data by the European Commission. Where your personal data is to be transferred to any country not appearing on the European Commission list, we will ensure there is an agreement in place between us and the relevant third party which contains certain requirements that are designed to protect your personal data.
• Where we use providers based in the US, we may transfer data to them if they are part of the Privacy Shield which requires them to provide similar protection to personal data shared between the Europe and the US. Please contact us if you want further information on the specific mechanism used by us when transferring your personal data out of the EEA.

Data Security & Retention

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. 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.

How long will you use my personal data for? We will only retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. 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 requirements. By law we have to keep basic information about our customers (including Financial and Transaction Data) for six years after they cease being customers for tax purposes. In some circumstances you can ask us to delete your data.

Your Legal Rights

Under certain circumstances, you have rights under data protection laws in relation to your personal data. Please see the Explained Terms to find out more about these rights. If you wish to exercise any of these rights, please contact us. No fee usually required You will not have to pay a fee to access your personal data (or to exercise any of the other rights). However, we may charge a reasonable fee if your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive or excessive. Alternatively, we may refuse to comply with your request in these circumstances. What we may need from you We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access your personal data (or to exercise any of your other rights). This is a security measure to ensure that personal data is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it. We may also contact you to ask you for further information in relation to your request to speed up our response. Time limit to respond We try to respond to all legitimate requests within one month. Occasionally it may take us longer than a month if your request is particularly complex or you have made a number of requests. In this case, we will notify you and keep you updated.

YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS

You have the right to: Request access to your personal data (commonly known as a “data subject access request”). This enables you to receive a copy of the personal data we hold about you and to check that we are lawfully processing it. Request correction of the personal data that we hold about you. This enables you to have any incomplete or inaccurate data we hold about you corrected, though we may need to verify the accuracy of the new data you provide to us. Request erasure of your personal data. This enables you to ask us to delete or remove personal data where there is no good reason for us continuing to process it. You also have the right to ask us to delete or remove your personal data where you have successfully exercised your right to object to processing (see below), where we may have processed your information unlawfully or where we are required to erase your personal data to comply with local law.

Note, however, that we may not always be able to comply with your request of erasure for specific legal reasons, which will be notified to you, if applicable, at the time of your request. Object to processing of your personal data where we are relying on a legitimate interest (or those of a third party) and there is something about your particular situation which makes you want to object to processing on this ground as you feel it affects your fundamental rights and freedoms. You also have the right to object where we are processing your personal data for direct marketing purposes. In some cases, we may demonstrate that we have compelling legitimate grounds to process your information which override your rights and freedoms. Request restriction of processing of your personal data.

This enables you to ask us to suspend the processing of your personal data in the following scenarios:
if you want us to establish the data's accuracy;
where our use of the data is unlawful but you do not want us to erase it;
where you need us to hold the data even if we no longer require it as you need it to establish, exercise or defend legal claims; or
you have objected to our use of your data but we need to verify whether we have overriding legitimate grounds to use it. Request the transfer of your personal data to you or to a third party.

We will provide to you, or a third party you have chosen, your personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format. Note that this right only applies to automated information which you initially provided consent for us to use or where we used the information to perform a contract with you. Withdraw consent at any time where we are relying on consent to process your personal data. However, this will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before you withdraw your consent. If you withdraw your consent, we may not be able to provide certain products or services to you. We will advise you if this is the case at the time you withdraw your consent.
