We comply with the Data Protection Act 1998. Any information you give to TEJAS KOTECHA will be held with the utmost care and will not be used in ways that you have not consented to. If you have any requests concerning your personal information or any queries with regard to these practices please contact the Data Manager via email: tejas@toastmastertejaskotecha.co.uk.

We collect information via the email inquiry form on the Contact Me page and through cookies. The information is used only to communicate with the user as a result of a question or inquiry submitted.
You can find out more about what cookies are and why we use them further down this document.
Use of Personal Information
Your personal data will be used by TEJAS KOTECHA to communicate with you, primarily in response to a submitted contact or inquiry form. Contact information is saved on the website for a maximum period of 30 days, before being deleted, and is only accessible by the Data Controller.
Other Websites
Our website may contain links to other websites that are outside our control and are not covered by this Privacy Policy. If you access other sites using the links provided, the operators of these sites may collect information from you that will be used by them in accordance with their privacy policies which may differ from ours.
Subject Access Requests
You have the right to see what personal data we hold about you. To obtain a copy of the personal information that we hold about you, please email us: tejas@toastmastertejaskotecha.co.uk. Please be aware that we reserve the right to charge a fee of up to £10 for any such request.
Internet-based Transfers
Given that the Internet is a global environment, using it to collect and process personal data necessarily involves the transmission of data on an international scale. This means, for instance, that data you pass to us may be processed outside the European Economic Area, although the data will always be held securely and in-line with the requirements of UK data protection legislation. By communicating electronically with us, you acknowledge and consent to our processing of personal data in this way.
