This notice describes information handling associated with the Montclair Bellerive website and digital client access. Additional notices and the documentation of your relationship may apply to the entity providing a particular service. The entity identified in those documents is the starting point for questions about client-record processing.
For a website privacy question or help directing a request, contact dpo@montclairbellerive.com. Include the nature of your request and the relationship or interaction concerned, but do not send passwords, authentication codes or unnecessary identity documents in an initial email.
Public browsing
Page requests necessarily transmit connection information such as an IP address and request details to the hosting infrastructure. This information is used to deliver the website and support security and reliability. The public pages do not ask visitors to disclose citizenship or financial information in order to read them.
The current public pages do not load advertising pixels or a third-party analytics script. Typography is requested from Google Fonts, so a browser may contact that provider when loading a page. External links take you to services with their own information-handling arrangements.
Client access and relationship information
Signing in uses an email address and password to authenticate an authorised user. A session cookie supports continued access. Account, transaction, document and message information is handled as part of the client service and associated record-keeping. Do not share an account or credentials with another person.
Depending on the service, relationship information may include identity, contact, ownership, financial, tax-residency and instruction records. The applicable purpose and documentation should be explained when information is requested. Information collected for verification should be proportionate to that purpose and exchanged through the agreed channel.
Enquiries and correspondence
When you contact a specialist mailbox, your message and the details you supply are used to consider and respond to the enquiry. Recruitment information is used for the relevant recruitment discussion. A privacy or complaint request may require records of the request, identity checks and the response.
Avoid including sensitive attachments before the recipient and transfer method are confirmed. Public email should not be used to issue payment instructions or disclose complete authentication credentials. If a request concerns another person, explain the authority under which you act.
Purposes and applicable grounds
Information may be needed to provide an agreed service, take steps requested before an agreement, meet applicable obligations, maintain secure access, investigate concerns or establish and protect rights. The applicable legal basis depends on the purpose and jurisdiction. Where processing relies on consent, the relevant request should explain how consent can be withdrawn.
This general notice does not make a blanket claim that every category of information is required for every service. Ask the responsible contact to explain why a particular item is needed and what happens if it is not supplied.
Recipients and international handling
Service delivery can involve hosting and communications providers, the relevant relationship entity, professional advisers and authorities where disclosure is required. Access should be limited to the purpose involved. Where information is handled across borders, the relevant entity should explain applicable safeguards and how further information can be obtained.
The precise recipient and transfer arrangements depend on the service. Request the entity-specific notice where needed; a public page should not be treated as a complete list of every processor involved in an individual relationship.
Retention and security
Retention depends on the record, its purpose and applicable obligations. Client instructions, regulatory records, recruitment enquiries and technical logs do not necessarily share one retention period. Ask for the applicable period or criteria for the record concerned. A deletion request may not override a duty to retain particular records.
The digital service uses access controls and protected transport. No security measure removes every risk. Report suspected compromise through your established relationship channel and consult the fraud-prevention guidance. This notice does not claim an independent audit certification or a guaranteed level of security.
Your requests
Depending on applicable law, requests may concern access, correction, deletion, restriction, objection, portability or withdrawal of consent. Explain the request clearly and provide enough context to locate the relevant interaction. Identity and authority may need to be verified before information is disclosed.
You may also have a right to raise a concern with the relevant data-protection authority. The ICO's privacy information guidance is one official reference for UK matters. Other jurisdictions have their own authorities and procedures.
Updates
The review date on this page identifies this edition. Material changes to a specific relationship may be communicated through the relevant service channel. Read this notice alongside the cookie and storage explanation and any entity-specific information supplied to you.
