Privacy

At Renewi, we take the privacy of individuals seriously and are committed to protecting the privacy of visitors to www.renewi.com (the "Site"). This Privacy Policy explains how information collected through the Site is used by Renewi.

About us

We are Renewi PLC, located at 16 Charlotte Square in Edinburgh, EH2 4DF ("Renewi", "us", "we" or "our"). The Renewi entity from which you wish to receive services is the controller of the personal information collected and used through this Site and for the purposes of the General Data Protection Regulation 2016/679 (the "AVG"). This means, in relation to the personal information you provide to that entity, that entity will determine why and how it will be used.

The personal information Renewi collects

When you use this Site, or in the context of our business relationship with you, we may collect your "personal information". Personal information is information that can be traced back to you alone or in combination with other information, either directly or indirectly back to you. We only process your personal information when:

You have given your consent for such processing (which you can withdraw at any time);
the processing is necessary to comply with our legal obligations;
the processing is necessary to provide services pursuant to an agreement we have with you; and/or
the processing is necessary in view of our legitimate interests.
We will explain below the ways in which we collect your personal information.
