Who we are
Our website address is: www.abpiexamtoolkit.uk
McKenzie Mills Partnership Ltd (“us”, “we”, or “our”) operates http://abpiexamtoolkit.uk (the “Site”). Our registered office is 22 St John Street, Newport Pagnell, Buckinghamshire, MK16 8HJ, UK.
We can be contacted at admin(at)abpiexamtoolkit.uk or here.
Scope
We comply with data protection legislation such as the General Data Protection Regulation (Regulation (EU) 2016/679). This regulates the processing of Personal Information relating to you and grants you various rights in respect of your Personal Information.
Our aim in this policy is to inform you of how we use any Personal Information we collect or you provide through our Site. The data controller in respect of this Site is McKenzie Mills Partnership Limited.
Any queries should be sent to admin(at)abpiexamtoolkit.uk.
What personal data we collect and why we collect it
What we’d really like you to know and to understand is that we’re a teeny tiny company run on ethical principles and based on promoting a culture of conscience (rather than the culture of compliance that necessitates GDPR and the like). That means we can’t begin to get our heads around nefarious practices that involve playing fast and loose with your data let alone get up to any.
While using our Site, if you decide to take advantage of the products and services we offer, we ask you to provide us with personally identifiable information (like your name or your email address) so that we can contact you or provide you with our products or services.
In the future, we might get around to occasionally stalking you via Facebook adverts. But, we’re too focused on helping people at the moment to get into how to do this, and the budget’s too tight to waste it on Facebook. Besides, we think that if you really want our help and our resources you’ll jump right in to get what you need without us getting in your face. Okay?
Read on for the serious stuff.
Communications
When you provide your Personal Information, we may use it to contact you with newsletters, marketing or promotional materials and other information about content relating to the Site. You may unsubscribe at any time from this service, which means your Personal Information will be removed from our contact database, and you will no longer receive communications from us.
Do not sell my personal information
We do not sell or share your personal information. We use it only for the purposes stated above in Communications.
Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.
An anonymised string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you’re using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.
Our Third Party Data Processors
Mailchimp
MailChimp is our current data processor, which collects and stores your personal data that you provide when you complete our sign-up forms.
We rely on your consent as the lawful basis for processing your data, using a double-opt in process. This means that we’ve made it clear to you what you’re signing up for in our sign-up forms, and that when you submit your details, you won’t receive anything from us until you’ve verified that the email address you gave us is actually yours. If you don’t complete this step, then you won’t be able to get any of our stuff to support you in your ABPI exam revision. (That’d be such a shame – when we’re here to help – wouldn’t it? Whatevah…It’s not like we’re looking for a longterm commitment here; besides, you can opt-opt whenever you want.)
Your personal data is stored within our MailChimp account, in order to allow us to create and use distribution lists, send marketing email campaigns, and place online advertisements (if we ever get round to blowing the budget on ads). According to the lovely peeps at Mailchimp, in the performance of these services, they may transfer your personal data to certain of their sub-processors (who, as described in their Data Processing Agreement, perform some critical services, such as helping MailChimp prevent abuse and providing support to their customers). Read Mailchimp’s Privacy policy for further information.
Payhip
Our Site includes links to our Digital Store provided via our Distributor, Payhip, where our frankly fabulous resources (otherwise known as Digital Content) may be purchased. Payhip (Privacy Policy) processes Personal Information on our behalf relating to purchase of our Digital Content. In other words, you tell Payhip where to deliver the download link to our stuff and hey presto: they take your money; send you the link; tell us that we’ve made a sale, giving us details of what you’ve bought. (That makes us sooo happy… but this isn’t about us.)
We don’t store or have access to Personal Information you submit to Payhip concerning your financial transaction (i.e. your credit card details or your PayPal account details aren’t shared with us).
PayPal and Stripe
PayPal and Stripe are our payment processors, where your Personal Information is processed on our behalf when you make a purchase, or pay for our tutorial or coaching services. PayPal or Stripe notify us when you’ve completed a transaction. We don’t store or have access to Personal Information you submit via PayPal or Stripe concerning financial transactions (i. e. credit card details).
Reservio
Reservio is our booking system provider, where your Personal Information is processed on our behalf relating to booking tutorials. Reservio notify us when you book a tutorial, so we can follow up with you. We don’t store or have access to Personal Information you submit to Reservio.

Quizlet

We do not store or have access to Personal Information you submit to Quizlet.
How long we retain your data
