Data protection information notice for customers

This notice is designed to help data controllers to comply with the disclosure requirements of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), in both its EU and UK forms, with respect to individual customers and/or business customer personnel.

This notice sets out the categories of personal data that may be processed and, with respect to each category of personal data, the legal basis of that processing. Where the legal basis is "legitimate interests", then the specific interests should be identified.

Where data is obtained from a person other than the data subject, then the source of that data should be identified. In addition, the data controller will need to provide the notice to the data subject "within a reasonable period after obtaining the personal data, but at the latest within one month, having regard to the specific circumstances in which the personal data are processed" (Article 14(3), GDPR).

The persons or categories of person to whom personal data may be disclosed should also be identified in the notice, as should details of international transfers (outside the UK and/or EEA) and the safeguards adopted to ensure that such transfers are lawful.

If you wish to use a single notice for website users and customers, you should look at our privacy policy / privacy and cookies policy templates, rather than this document.

Number of document instances

Document templates are the products available for sale on this website; whereas document instances are "clones" of the templates, which you can edit using Docular's online editor and export from the website.

We will update our document templates from time to time, but this will not affect your document instances. When you create a document instance, it will be based upon the latest version of the underlying document template at the time of creation of the instance, irrespective of your date of purchase.

You can save your document instance to our servers at any time, and return to editing later. Once you are happy with your editing, you can export the document and save it to your computer.

Number of websites or digital products

The licences include numerical limits upon: (a) the number of websites (including cloud services) on which documents may be published; and (b) the number of digital products (such as software programs) with which documents may be distributed.

Sub-licences permitted

All of our paid licences allow you to sub-license to a client of yours the right to use a document created using Docular.

When you sub-license that right, it becomes attached to the particular client. The number of sub-licences you may grant is numerically limited and, again, the limitation corresponds to the document instance limitation.

Document licence period

This is the period of the licence to use documents created using and exported from the Docular online editor. In short, the licences do not expire. There are no ongoing licence fees.

Credit for Docular

Each free template includes a textual credit for Docular (eg "this document was created using Docular") and you must retain that credit in all versions of the document.

Legal T&Cs

For full details of the licensing rules governing the use of Docular templates, instances and exports, see our terms and conditions.
