We ask that you read this privacy notice carefully as it contains important information on who we are, how and why we collect, store, use and share personal information, your rights in relation to your personal information and on how to contact us and supervisory authorities in the event you have a complaint.

Who we are

We are Monkey Puzzle Day Nurseries Ltd, Registered in England number 5192967 Registered Address: 3a Chestnut House, Farm Close, Shenley, Herts, WD7 9AD

We use and are responsible for information we collect from you when you visit our website or submit an enquiry to us. When we do so we are regulated under the General Data Protection Regulation which applies across the European Union (including in the United Kingdom) and we are responsible as ‘controller’ of that personal information for the purposes of those laws.

The personal information we collect and use
Information we collected or obtain

When you visit our website and/or submit an enquiry to us, we may collect the following personal information from you, or you may freely provide it to us when submitting your enquiry:
• your name and contact information, including email address and telephone number
• your employment history and details of referees (who we presume consent to us contacting them if we wish to proceed with your application)
• information about your child if relevant to the enquiry
• location data, if you choose to give this to us
• information about how you use our website, IT, communication and other systems

We may later collect other personal information from you if we need it and we will ask you for this at the time.

How we use your personal information

We will use the personal information we collect or obtain from you in order to process your enquiry or application and ensure it is dealt with by the correct people. We will not share your personal information with any other third party.

How long your personal information will be kept

We will keep data that we collect or obtain from you for as long as is necessary to process your application. For enquiries about child places, this will typically be 24 months so that we can update you about new opportunities throughout this time.

For job enquiries we will usually hold your details only for as long as it takes for the local nursery to contact you.

Transfer of your information out of the EEA

We will use appropriate technical and organisational measures to safeguard your personal data, for example we store your personal data on secure servers and access to your personal data is limited to approved staff.

Your information is stored by us at physical locations and on computer servers based in the UK, but some of our third party service providers may process your data outside of the European Economic Area (“EEA”).

Whenever we transfer your personal data out of the EEA, we ensure a similar degree of protection is afforded to it by ensuring at least one of the following safeguards is implemented:
• the countries we transfer your personal data to have been deemed to provide an adequate level of protection for personal data by the European Commission
• we use contractual clauses approved by the European Commission which give personal data similar protection to that which it has in the EEA
• 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 that applies within the EEA.
