5. Our Lawful Bases for Processing
Under UK data protection legislation, we must have a lawful basis for processing personal information.
Depending on the circumstances, we may rely on one or more of the following:
Contract
We may process personal information where this is necessary to enter into or perform a contract with you, or to take steps at your request before entering into a contract.
This may apply where you instruct us to sell, let, manage or acquire a property, or where you apply for or enter into a tenancy.
Legal Obligation
We may process personal information where necessary to comply with legal or regulatory obligations.
This may include anti-money laundering requirements, identity verification, Right to Rent requirements where applicable, taxation, accounting and other statutory obligations.
Legitimate Interests
We may process personal information where this is necessary for our legitimate business interests and where those interests are not overridden by your rights and interests.
These interests may include:
- Operating and developing our estate agency business
- Responding to enquiries
- Managing relationships with clients and customers
- Marketing and progressing property transactions
- Maintaining records of our activities and communications
- Protecting our business against fraud or legal claims
- Improving our services and website
- Communicating with existing clients and customers where appropriate.
Consent
Where required, we may rely on your consent, including for certain forms of electronic marketing or non-essential website technologies.
Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw your consent at any time.
Withdrawal of consent will not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before consent was withdrawn.
6. Property Enquiries and Registrations
When you enquire about a property or register your property requirements with us, we may use the information you provide to:
- Respond to your enquiry
- Arrange viewings
- Contact you regarding the property
- Identify other properties that may match your requirements
- Maintain a record of your property search
- Keep you informed about relevant properties where permitted.
You may ask us to update or remove your property search requirements at any time, subject to any information we are required to retain for legal or regulatory reasons.
7. Sellers, Buyers, Landlords and Tenants
Where you instruct us or become involved in a property transaction, we may process information necessary to provide our services and progress the transaction.
This may include communicating relevant information to the other parties to the transaction and their professional representatives where necessary.
We will not disclose personal information unnecessarily and will limit information shared to what is reasonably required for the relevant purpose.
8. Identity Verification and Anti-Money Laundering
Oudini Estates Ltd is subject to legal and regulatory obligations relating to the prevention of money laundering and terrorist financing.
Where applicable, we may be required to verify your identity and obtain information about the nature of a transaction, beneficial ownership, source of funds or source of wealth.
We may use specialist third-party providers to assist with identity verification, electronic verification, sanctions screening, politically exposed person checks and other compliance checks.
We may also be required by law to disclose information to HM Revenue & Customs, law enforcement bodies, regulatory authorities or other authorised organisations.
Where legislation prevents us from informing you about such a disclosure, we will comply with those legal restrictions.
9. Right to Rent
Where we provide relevant residential lettings services, we may be required to carry out Right to Rent checks.
This may involve obtaining and reviewing identity documents, immigration status information or information provided through an applicable government checking service.
Information obtained for this purpose will be handled securely and retained in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
10. Sharing Personal Information
Where necessary, we may share personal information with appropriate third parties, including:
- Sellers, buyers, landlords and tenants
- Solicitors and conveyancers
- Mortgage brokers and lenders
- Surveyors
- Property managers and managing agents
- Referencing providers
- Identity verification and anti-money laundering providers
- Inventory providers
- Contractors and maintenance providers

- Website, CRM, IT and software service providers
- Payment and accounting providers
- Professional advisers, including accountants and lawyers
- Insurers
- Regulatory authorities
- HM Revenue & Customs
- Law enforcement agencies
- Courts and other public authorities where required by law.
Where a third party processes personal information on our behalf, we expect them to protect that information appropriately and use it only for the authorised purpose.
We do not sell personal information to third parties.
11. Marketing Communications
We may contact you with information about properties, services or other matters that we reasonably believe may be relevant to you where permitted by law.
Where consent is required for electronic marketing, we will obtain the appropriate consent before sending such communications.
You may unsubscribe from marketing communications at any time by using the unsubscribe option contained within the communication or by contacting us at:
info@oudiniestates.co.uk
Opting out of marketing will not prevent us from contacting you where communication is necessary in connection with an existing enquiry, instruction, transaction, tenancy or other service.
12. Cookies and Website Technologies
Our website may use cookies and similar technologies to operate correctly, remember preferences, understand how visitors use the website and improve its performance.
Some cookies may be essential for the operation of the website.
Where required by law, non-essential cookies or similar technologies will only be used after you have provided the appropriate consent.
You can manage your cookie preferences through the cookie controls available on our website and, where applicable, through your browser settings.
13. How Long We Keep Personal Information
We will not retain personal information for longer than reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, including the need to satisfy legal, regulatory, accounting or reporting requirements and to establish or defend legal claims.
Different retention periods may therefore apply depending on the type of information and our relationship with you.
Where personal information forms part of our anti-money laundering customer due diligence records, we will generally retain the required records for five years following the end of the relevant business relationship or completion of the relevant transaction, unless a different period is required or permitted by law.
Transaction, contractual, accounting and property management records may be retained for an appropriate period after the relationship or transaction has ended where necessary for legal, regulatory, taxation, accounting or dispute-resolution purposes.
Property-search and enquiry information that is no longer required will be periodically reviewed and deleted or anonymised where appropriate.
Where we no longer require personal information, it will be securely deleted, anonymised or otherwise disposed of appropriately.
14. International Transfers
Some of the organisations providing services to us may store or process personal information outside the United Kingdom.
Where personal information is transferred internationally, we will take appropriate steps to ensure that the transfer complies with applicable UK data protection legislation.
Where required, this may include relying on applicable adequacy regulations or using appropriate contractual safeguards or other legally recognised transfer mechanisms.
You may contact us if you would like further information about safeguards relating to a particular international transfer.
15. Security
We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal information against unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure, loss or misuse.
Access to personal information is limited to persons who reasonably require access for legitimate business or legal purposes.
While we take appropriate measures to protect information, no internet transmission or electronic storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
16. Your Data Protection Rights
Depending on the circumstances and applicable legislation, you may have the right to:
- Request access to personal information we hold about you
- Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete information
- Request erasure of your personal information where the applicable legal requirements are met
- Request restriction of processing
- Object to certain processing
- Request transfer of certain personal information in a portable format
- Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent
- Object to direct marketing at any time.
These rights are not absolute and may be subject to legal limitations or exemptions.
In particular, the right to erasure does not necessarily require us to delete all information we hold about you. We may need or be permitted to retain information where it is required for legal, regulatory or contractual purposes, for the establishment or defence of legal claims, or where another lawful basis for retaining the information applies.
