Privacy Policy

This policy explains what personal data Intirbim collects, why we collect it, how we protect it, and the rights you have under data protection law.

Effective date: [INSERT DATE] Last updated: [INSERT DATE]

Intirbim Consultancy Services Limited ("Intirbim", "we", "us" or "our") is committed to protecting the privacy of everyone we deal with. This policy describes how we handle personal data in connection with our website, our consultancy services, and our business operations, in accordance with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the Irish Data Protection Act 2018, and other applicable laws.

01 Who we are


Intirbim Consultancy Services Limited is a project controls and digital delivery consultancy registered in Ireland, with a delivery office in Trivandrum, Kerala, India. For the purposes of data protection law, Intirbim is the data controller responsible for the personal data described in this policy.

Our details:
Intirbim Consultancy Services Limited
Registered office: [INSERT FULL REGISTERED ADDRESS, Mulhuddart, Dublin 15]
Company registration number (CRO): [INSERT CRO NUMBER]
Data protection contact: [INSERT PRIVACY EMAIL]

02 Scope of this policy


This policy applies to personal data we process about:

  • visitors to www.intirbim.com and anyone who contacts us through it;
  • clients, prospective clients, and their representatives;
  • suppliers, subcontractors, sub-consultants, and recruitment partners;
  • job applicants and candidates introduced to us;
  • other professional contacts in the course of our business.

Where we process personal data on behalf of a client as part of delivering our services (for example, project team data within a client's systems), we typically act as a data processor, and that processing is governed by our contract with the client rather than this policy.

03 Data we collect


Depending on your relationship with us, we may collect:

Identity & contact data

Name, job title, employer, business email address, business phone number, and postal address.

Professional data

Information you share in the course of business — such as project requirements, correspondence, CVs and qualifications (for candidates and personnel), and records of our dealings with you.

Technical data

When you visit our website, we may collect your IP address, browser type and version, device information, and pages viewed, primarily for security and to keep the site functioning correctly.

We do not seek to collect special category data (such as data about health, racial or ethnic origin, or political opinions) through this website. Please do not submit such information to us unless we have specifically requested it for a lawful purpose.

04 How we collect it


  • Directly from you — when you email us, complete a form, share documents, or correspond with us;
  • Automatically — through cookies and similar technologies when you use our website (see section 6);
  • From third parties — such as recruitment partners, public business directories, professional networks (e.g. LinkedIn), or referrals.

05 Why we use it & our lawful basis


We only process personal data where we have a lawful basis to do so under the GDPR:

PurposeLawful basis
Responding to enquiries and providing requested informationLegitimate interests; steps prior to a contract
Delivering our consultancy services and managing contractsPerformance of a contract
Business development and relationship managementLegitimate interests
Recruitment and introducing candidatesLegitimate interests; steps prior to a contract; consent where required
Website security, administration, and improvementLegitimate interests
Non-essential analytics cookiesConsent
Meeting legal, accounting, and regulatory obligationsLegal obligation

Where we rely on legitimate interests, we have balanced those interests against your rights and freedoms. You can ask us about this balancing assessment at any time using the contact details below.

06 Cookies & analytics


Cookies are small files placed on your device. We use strictly necessary cookies to make our website work, and we may use analytics cookies to understand how the site is used so we can improve it.

Action required before publishing: confirm which cookies the live site actually sets. If you use analytics (for example [Google Analytics / other]), non-essential cookies require prior consent under Irish ePrivacy rules — a consent banner must be in place, and the list below should reflect your real cookies. If the site sets only strictly necessary cookies, state that here and remove this notice.

You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings. Restricting strictly necessary cookies may affect how the website functions.

07 Sharing & disclosure


We do not sell your personal data. We may share it with:

  • Service providers and processors who support our operations — for example IT, hosting, email, and professional advisers — under contracts that require them to protect your data;
  • Our delivery office and personnel in Ireland and India, on a need-to-know basis to deliver services;
  • Subcontractors and sub-consultants where necessary to deliver a project;
  • Authorities or regulators where we are required to do so by law, or to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims.

08 International transfers


Intirbim operates across Ireland and India. As a result, your personal data may be transferred to, and processed in, India and potentially other countries outside the European Economic Area (EEA).

Where we transfer personal data outside the EEA, we put appropriate safeguards in place as required by the GDPR — typically the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses, together with any additional measures needed to protect your data. You can request a copy of the relevant safeguards using the contact details below.

09 How long we keep data


We keep personal data only for as long as necessary for the purposes set out in this policy, including to satisfy legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. As general guidance:

Type of dataTypical retention period
Enquiry and prospect correspondenceUp to 2 years from last contact
Client and contract recordsDuration of the engagement plus 6 years [CONFIRM]
Recruitment / candidate data (unsuccessful)Up to 12 months, or with consent [CONFIRM]
Website technical logsShort term, for security and diagnostics

When data is no longer needed, we securely delete or anonymise it.

10 Security


We use appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against unauthorised access, loss, or misuse — including access controls, secure storage, and staff awareness. No system can be guaranteed perfectly secure, but we work to reduce risk and to respond promptly to any incident.

11 Your rights


Under the GDPR, you have the following rights in relation to your personal data:

Access

Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.

Rectification

Ask us to correct data that is inaccurate or incomplete.

Erasure

Ask us to delete your data in certain circumstances.

Restriction

Ask us to limit how we use your data.

Portability

Receive certain data in a portable format.

Objection

Object to processing based on legitimate interests, including direct marketing.

Withdraw consent

Where we rely on consent, withdraw it at any time.

Complain

Lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority (see section 13).

12 Exercising your rights


To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details in section 16. We will respond within one month, as required by the GDPR (this may be extended for complex requests, in which case we will let you know). We may need to verify your identity before acting on a request. Exercising your rights is free of charge in most cases.

13 Complaints


We would always prefer the opportunity to resolve any concern directly, so please contact us first. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Irish data protection supervisory authority:

Data Protection Commission (Ireland)
21 Fitzwilliam Square South, Dublin 2, D02 RD28, Ireland
Website: www.dataprotection.ie

If you are based in another EEA country, you may also complain to your local supervisory authority.

14 Children's data


Our website and services are directed at businesses and professionals, not children. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us and we will take appropriate steps to remove it.

15 Changes to this policy


We may update this policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. The "last updated" date at the top shows when it was last revised. Where changes are significant, we will take reasonable steps to bring them to your attention.
