Collection and Use of Personal Information
This Privacy Statement sets out the basis on which B2M collects and uses your personal information. Personal information is data that can identify a specific individual such as name, physical and/or email address and telephone number.
If you choose to enter into the bp Partner Points Programme, you will be asked to provide B2M, through your employer, with the minimum information required to enable us to enter you into the scheme. Such information will be limited to your name, email address and the company you work for.
We will use your personal information for the following purposes:
a. to enter you into the bp Partner Points Programme;
b. to administer and operate the bp Partner Points Programme;
c. to improve the performance of the bp Partner Points Programme, this Programme Website; and
d. to contact you with information on additional products and/or services which bp reasonably thinks may be of interest to you. You may opt out at any time from these communications. For more information see the “Direct Marketing” section below.
As the bp Partner Points Programme is a voluntary benefits scheme, we will rely on your explicit consent to process your information in the manner stated above.
Your personal information will be held for as long as you remain a participant of the bp Partner Points Programme after which time it will be held for an additional 12 months, in line with our retention policy, before being deleted or anonymised.
Direct Marketing
bp may send you marketing communications (including by email) in line with your previously expressed marketing preferences. If you no longer wish to receive such communications, please contact us at bpcardsadmin@bp.com to modify your preferences, or follow the opt-out instructions contained in each marketing communication.
Disclosures and Transfers of Personal Information
bp does not sell or otherwise release your personal information to third parties to allow them to direct market their products and services to you. In order to provide our products and services we may, however, need to share your personal information with other companies within the bp Group, and/or third party service providers that process data on our behalf.
In particular, we use the services of a company called Park Card Services Limited to help us run this programme. Park Card Services Limited, as well as any other service provider who may have access to your personal information, must act only in accordance with our written instructions, comply with the contractual protections we have put in place and refrain from using your personal information other than for the purpose of helping us run this programme.
Since B2M operates globally, we may transfer your personal data to other bp entities that may be located outside of the UK or EEA. Where this is the case, your personal data shall remain at all-time protected under bp’s comprehensive, flexible, and global compliance framework which implements appropriate measures and safeguards (including EU standard contractual clauses and the UK Addendum) to ensure that your personal information is protected in accordance with applicable data protection laws. For more information and for a copy of the transfer mechanism we bp relies on, please contact us at privacy3@bp.com.
We reserve the right to disclose your personal information as required by law, or when we believe that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights and/or comply with a judicial proceeding, court order, request from a regulator or any other legal process served on bp. In the event that bp is subject to a takeover, divestment or acquisition we may disclose your personal information to the new owner of the business.
Your rights as a data subject
In accordance with applicable law, you may have the right to:
Request access to your personal data. 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 impacts on 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.
- 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.
Depending on where you are, you may also have the right to lodge a complaint with your national data protection supervisory authority. However, please consider using bp’s internal complaint resolution mechanism by contacting us.
If you would like to enforce any of your data protection rights, please contact bpcardsadmin@bp.com. Please note that the exercise of your rights may be subject to exemptions.
