British Watch & Clock Makers

DR. ROGER
W. SMITH

CHAIRMAN

Apprenticed to the great George Daniels, Roger continues on the legacy of the Daniels Method of watchmaking with his own individual style and his evolution of the Daniels Co-Axial escapement.

In 2013, Roger was invited by then Prime Minister David Cameron to become one of the inaugural Ambassadors for the GREAT Britain campaign. He created the iconic "GREAT Britain" watch, with its extraordinarily complex dial and in recent years has introduced his Series 1, 2, 3, and 4 wristwatches with new complications, as well as his Series 5, open dial variant.

Roger is passionate about two particular goals - to relentlessly improve mechanical timekeeping and to help lead the resurgence of British horology.

MIKE FRANCE

CO-FOUNDER

After an early career in retail with the Burton Group, Mike was headhunted by Sir Terence Conran to join BHS and developed a reputation for business turnaround.

This led to Mike becoming first, Chief Executive, and then co-owner of the Early Learning Centre, with his business partner, Peter Ellis. They successfully returned the business to profitability and eventual sale in 2001. It was during a sail on the Thames that year with Peter, and their friend Christopher Ward, when a mutual love for horology – and a radical idea that the premium watch industry was ready for its first online-only retailer – led, in 2004, to Christopher Ward watches.

Christopher Ward’s transparent approach immediately struck a chord with many consumers in over 120 countries around the world. Today, they are one of Britain’s leading export watchmakers and this has inspired Mike’s drive to help define the future of British watchmaking.

ALISTAIR AUDSLEY

CEO

With a successful career crafting brand strategies and stories for blue chips and government, Alistair has advised Roger W. Smith Ltd since 2009.

Alistair’s other story-telling passion is film and, among many feature documentaries, he co-wrote and produced the Netflix documentary “The Watchmaker’s Apprentice". Alistair was appointed as an Ambassador for the GREAT Britain campaign in 2019 in recognition of his contribution to the campaign and he is a co-founder of the Alliance of British Watch and Clock Makers.

KATYA AUDSLEY

PR & MEMBERSHIPS MANAGER

An MBA holder since 2007, Katya has a background in product and financial PR having worked with several blue chip financial and investment companies such as Canada Life, Hitachi Capital and Jeffries.

DARYN MOORE

CREATIVE DIRECTOR

For the Alliance, Daryn works across multiple platforms including digital branding and communications strategy.

Introduction

We take the protection of your privacy and confidentiality seriously. We understand that visitors to our website are entitled to information about their personal data and know it will not accidentally fall into the hands of a third party.

We do not sell your data to third parties

Our principle guidelines are simple, and we will be clear about the data we collect and why. This Policy sets out the conditions under which we may process any information that we collect from you, or that you provide to us. It covers information that could identify you (“personal information” or ‘’personal data’’). In the context of the law and this notice, “process” means any operation performed on the personal information including collecting, storing, transferring, using, or otherwise acting on information.

We hope the sections below will answer any questions you have but, if not, please do get in touch with us at [email protected]

For example, we may aggregate your Usage Data to calculate the percentage of users accessing a specific website feature.

Facebook custom audience

We use your personal data to create custom audiences and lookalike audiences on Facebook for the purpose of advertising our products to you.

When custom audiences are created, Facebook acting as the data processor (we are the data controller) uses our Customer Relationship Management (CRM)data to match it to people with a Facebook account to create a Custom Audience for our advertising campaigns.

When we set up a custom audience, we provide Facebook with Hashed Data (achieved by reducing the data to a string of characters for security purposes) which we upload from our database. Facebook then match our Hashed Data with their Hashed Data, which is made up of Facebook email addresses.

For this section, the following definitions apply:

custom audience is a type of audience on a social media platform that comprises our customers, which may include you if you have the relevant social media account; and
lookalike audience is a type of audience which uses a custom audience to identify the common qualities of the individuals in it (such as demographic information or interests)

For further information please refer to the information provided by Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/legal/terms/customaudience

You may opt-out of participation in our Facebook Custom Audience by sending an email, from the email address you are opting out of, to us at [email protected]. We will forward your name and email address to Facebook.com with a request to delete you from all of our Facebook Custom Audience Ads.

How we will not use your data

Alliance of British Watch and Clock Makers will not share your information with other companies for their marketing purposes and will not sell or seek to make financial gain from your information, aside from our own marketing activities. Please see below ‘how can you stop the use of your personal data for direct marketing’ for the details of our marketing practices and how you can unsubscribe.

Your legal rights: Under certain circumstances, you have rights under data protection laws in relation to your personal data:

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 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 we will notify 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:
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

If you wish to exercise any of the rights set out above, please contact us at [email protected]

You will not have to pay a fee to access your personal data (or exercise any of the other rights). However, we may charge a reasonable fee if your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive or excessive. Alternatively, we could refuse to comply with your request in these circumstances.

After receiving the request, we shall take reasonable steps to verify your identity. This is important to safeguard your information and is a security measure to ensure that personal data is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it.

We try to respond to all legitimate requests within one month. Occasionally it could 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.

Retention period for personal data

Except as otherwise mentioned in this privacy notice, we keep your personal information only for as long as required by us:

to provide you with the services you have requested
to comply with other law, including for the period demanded by our tax authorities
to support a claim or defence in court.

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, together with any applicable legal, regulatory, tax, accounting or other requirements.

In some circumstances you can ask us to delete your data: see Your Legal Rights above for further information.

In some circumstances we will anonymise your personal data (so that it can no longer be associated with you) for research or statistical purposes, in which case we may use this information indefinitely without further notice to you.

By law we have to keep basic information about our customers (including Contact, Identity, Financial and Transaction Data) for six years after they cease being customers.

International transfers

We will ensure that reasonable steps are taken to prevent third parties outside your country of residence using your personal data in any way not set out in this Privacy Policy. We will also make sure we adequately protect the confidentiality and privacy of your personal data.

Many of our external third parties (such as our suppliers) are based outside the EEA so their processing of your data will involve transfer of data outside the EEA.

If you want further information on the specific mechanism used by us when transferring your data outside the EEA then please do contact us.

Data Security

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. They will only process your personal data on our instructions, and they are subject to a duty of confidentiality.

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.
