UK GDPR & Data Protection Act 2018 (UK)

At Callent Tech Ltd., our compliance with the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018 is engineered as a multi-layered, enterprise-grade governance system—designed not just to meet regulatory expectations, but to exceed them with proactive risk management, transparency, and accountability.

We operate with a “compliance-by-design and by-default” philosophy, embedding data protection principles into every campaign, dataset, and outreach workflow.

1. Regulatory Alignment & Lawful Processing Framework

Every data processing activity within our ecosystem is legally grounded, documented, and auditable.

Structured Legal Basis Implementation

We rigorously define and validate lawful grounds under Article 6:

• • Legitimate Interest (B2B Intelligence & Outreach)
    Supported by comprehensive Legitimate Interest Assessments (LIAs) that:
    
    • • Evaluate necessity, proportionality, and impact
    • • Balance commercial intent with individual rights
    • • Include documented risk mitigation controls
    • • Are reviewed periodically for regulatory alignment

• • Explicit Consent Framework
    
    • • Granular, purpose-specific opt-ins
    • • Clear, unambiguous disclosures
    • • Double opt-in where required
    • • Timestamped and verifiable consent logs

• • Contractual Necessity & Service Delivery
    
    • • Processing aligned with contractual obligations
    • • Clearly defined controller-processor relationships
    • • Transparent scope of usage within agreements

• •   Audit-Ready Documentation

• • • Records of Processing Activities (RoPA) maintained and updated
