For any question about your personal information, or to exercise your rights, email info@restoremycompany.ie or call +353 1 960 9705.
What we collect
- When you contact us or ask for a status check: your name, email address, phone number, the company's name and CRO number, and anything you tell us about the company.
- When you become a client: the information needed to restore the company, including its financial records and details of its directors and shareholders.
- Identity checks: as a licensed Trust or Company Service Provider, we must verify the identity of our clients, their directors and beneficial owners under Irish anti-money laundering law. This includes identification documents and proof of address.
Why we use it, and our legal basis
- To answer your enquiry and check the company's status: because you asked us to, as a step before entering into a contract.
- To restore the company: to perform our contract with you, including filings with the CRO, dealings with Revenue and the Chief State Solicitor's Office, and court applications.
- To meet our legal obligations: including anti-money laundering checks and record-keeping.
- To run our business: for our legitimate interests, such as keeping proper records, balanced against your rights.
We do not sell your information.
Who we share it with
- The Companies Registration Office, Revenue, the Chief State Solicitor's Office and the courts, as the restoration requires. Documents filed with the CRO appear on the public register.
- The solicitor who acts on a court restoration.
- Service providers that help us run the business, such as our website host and email provider (Google) and the OPSUS 360 client portal. They act on our instructions and must keep your information secure.
- Law enforcement or regulators, where the law requires it.
Some providers may process information outside the European Economic Area. Where they do, we rely on safeguards approved under data protection law, such as the European Commission's standard contractual clauses.
How long we keep it
- Enquiries that do not lead to us working together: up to 12 months.
- Client records and identity check records: 5 years after our working relationship ends, as anti-money laundering law requires, or longer where other law requires.
Your rights
You can ask for a copy of your personal information, and ask us to correct or erase it, restrict or object to how we use it, or give it to you in a portable format. Some rights are limited where the law requires us to keep records. We reply within one month.
If you're unhappy with how we've handled your information, you can complain to the Data Protection Commission at dataprotection.ie.
