We know your data is important to you, and when you share it with us you trust us to use it appropriately and respect your choices.
As a B2B business, BeeLiked’s key focus is company data. We want to learn how we can help our clients run brilliant campaigns that help them engage with their customers and attract new ones. We want to know what appeals to them, so we can design fun, cutting-edge campaigns, support our marketing strategy, and generate leads. For that, we need to know about people within the business – who makes purchasing decisions, who is authorised to give instructions regarding the account, who should have access to the campaign platform to make changes or analyse audience data, and who pays the bills.
This means we don’t Process a lot of Personal Data to run our business. But when we do, BeeLiked is committed to protecting the privacy and security of that Personal Data, and we want to ensure you understand your rights and our responsibilities.
This Data Privacy Notice (‘Privacy Notice’ or ‘Notice’) describes how we handle your Personal Data throughout our relationship, whether you are a client or prospect, a potential business partner, or just a member of the public who visits our website.
Our services are not typically intended for minors. If a campaign is targeted at minors, then the guardian email system will be turned on and an email will be sent seeking parental consent for the minor to enter the campaign.
We may update this Notice at any time but will let you know if we make important changes.
You’re probably wondering, “What do you do with the data of the end-users who enter the campaigns you power on our site? If one end-user enters campaigns you power for different clients, are you building profiles of them across them? What do we tell them in our Privacy Notice?”
When we support our clients by powering their campaigns, we inevitably have access to some end-user data (‘Audience Data’). But we’ve taken steps to protect their privacy and rights.
HEAR NO DATA, SEE NO DATA.
While details about the end-users who enter the campaigns we power are extremely useful for you, we don’t need it. We are your Data Processors when it comes to data end-users provide, like name and contact, or information observed or derived from data about their activity and engagement (‘Audience Data’). That means we don’t decide what to do collect or how to use it. You do. And we support you by following your instructions.
Put simply, we don’t use what we don’t need, and we’ve put controls in place to enforce this. That means:
When you choose to run a campaign using a BeeLiked-powered chatbot across various channels, e.g. Facebook messenger, the end-user using their own credentials gives it permission to share certain profile data or communicate with your campaign through BeeLiked using an API. BeeLiked doesn’t get that information. Users manage what information they want that platform to share with you through their privacy settings.
And no, we’re not building profiles of your end-users. We’ve put in controls to make sure Audience Data for each campaign is held separately, which means we don’t mingle or match Audience Data across BeeLiked campaigns.
So, what do you tell end-users in your mandatory Privacy Notice? Everything you’re supposed to tell them under the GDPR, and in particular what you collect and how you use it. And when you need to tell them about third parties like BeeLiked, feel free to use some of the information below.
WHAT IF I HAVE QUESTIONS OR CONCERNS?
If you ever have any questions or concerns about how we handle your Personal Data contact:

Regardless of where, why or how we obtain or Process your Personal Data, we comply with the Data Protection Law (DP Law). DP Law protects ‘Data Subjects’ in the UK and EU (that’s you) by imposing stricter obligations on ‘Data Controllers’ (that’s us when it comes to our clients) and ‘Data Processors’ (that’s us when we power our clients’ campaigns, and the vendors support our business) when we ‘Process’ ‘Personal Data’. These capitalised terms are GDPR-speak. To decode them, click here to see our glossary below: ‘Personal Data’, ‘Processing’, ‘Controller’, ‘Processor’? What do all these terms mean?
In a nutshell, DP Law applies to any data that might identify a living individual (i.e. you), wherever or however we got it (e.g. from you, from someone else, or by analysing your activity), whatever we do with it and wherever we Process it, even if someone else Processes it on our behalf, and even if we send it outside the European Economic Area (EEA).
This means that whenever we Process your Personal Data, we do so
You have given us permission, which you can withdraw at any time. We need your Explicit Consent to process sensitive data like health-related data (Special Data) or to transfer your Personal Data outside the EEA where we don’t have another basis for doing so, or for any Automated Decision Making (‘ADM’) that has significant legal or other effects. We currently don’t process Special Data or conduct ADM.
To help fulfil a legitimate business objective (see the ‘Why’ column of the Your Data At-a-Glance chart, below) after confirming we’ve only used what’s reasonably necessary and proportionate to meet that objective and struck the right balance between our interests and yours (Legitimate Interests Assessment (LIA)). We have a Legitimate Interest in Processing Personal Data to operate our business, generate leads and sales, support our marketing campaigns, make sure our relationship with you runs smoothly, and protect the Personal Data and commercial data we hold by securing our network and information systems.
To enter into or fulfil our contract, including to generate a quote.
To comply with the law (e.g. tax reporting, DP Law).
In rare instances where one of the others don’t apply but we need your Personal Data to protect your vital interests or those of another person. It’s highly unlikely we would ever need to rely on this Lawful Basis.
You have given us permission, which you can withdraw at any time. We need your Explicit Consent to process sensitive data like health-related data (Special Data) or to transfer your Personal Data outside the EEA where we don’t have another basis for doing so, or for any Automated Decision Making (‘ADM’) that has significant legal or other effects. We currently don’t process Special Data or conduct ADM.
Email address, social media contact (if applicable), and telephone numbers.
Lists with Basic ID and Contact data of potential contacts occupying appropriate roles within companies we wish to target. We use a number of third-party services to create company lists for companies we wish to target and engage freelancers who find Basic ID and Contact data for the companies we wish to target. We also scrape details from LinkedIn and LinkedIn Sales Navigator. This is all inputted into and managed through our Hubspot CRM and Hubspot Sales Hub.
Your preferences in receiving marketing from us – including do-not-call and unsubscribe requests (suppression lists). We use a Belgian company, Prospect.io, to manage our email marketing and your preferences and gather engagement metrics (e.g. number read/unread, number of unsubscribes, the percentage of contacts who request a demo for a particular campaign, etc.).
We track emails read/unread and where (city) and email links clicked using Hubspot Marketing Hub with a cookie that only gets dropped on your device if you enable images. You can adjust your settings to disable tracking pixels. We also manage our social media marketing through Hubspot Marketing Hub (e.g. by sending out tweets on Twitter) or to connect socially with prospects even without access to their accounts. We can capture leads by filtering individual activity (e.g. by calls, requests for a demo, etc.) if a user clicks on a call to action button, e.g. ‘drop us a note’ or ‘schedule a call’.
We use Slack to securely chat with existing, signed-in customers.
Contract details, details of services you have purchased from us or for which you have sought a quote. Bank account and payment card details. Billing address, invoices, payment history. This is inputted into and managed through our Hubspot CRM.
Access level to your company’s client dashboard (e.g. superuser, admin, etc.).
Customer service interactions, complaints, correspondence, notes we input into our databases relating to your interactions with us are inputted into our Hubspot CRM, which is linked to our company Gmail account and calendar ( G-Suite).
Our online chats with clients and inbound enquiries are powered by the Intercom messaging platform based in, as are automated emails. The contact information you input is captured in Intercom and stored in our CRM in Hubspot to make it easier for us to communicate with you and market to you (if you consent).
Voice recordings: For clients communicating with us Hubspot’s Voice-Over IP (VOIP), calls are automatically recorded
BeeLiked’s proprietary web application (CMS for interactive campaigns) for signed-in clients is hosted on Amazon AWS EU. It collects certain Internet protocol (IP) address, your login data (including when you last logged in), browser plug-in types and version, time zone setting and location and other OS details applicable to the device you connect with to enable support.
Data related to logged-in users’ behaviour on our website or your interactions with us through different communication channels (e.g. when you’ve read an email, where you’re logging on).
We use a cookie tool on our website powered by Hubspot which by default requires explicit action by website visitors to opt-in to the cookies they choose except for strictly necessary cookies.
We use cookies for various purposes.
Standard internet log information and visitor behaviour patterns obtained using Google Analytics and other tools. We get aggregated statistics
Intercom tracks which pages and campaigns logged-in clients visit. It also provides aggregated visitor behaviour. This client information is channelled through Hubspot to give us a fuller picture of our clients.
We use Amazon AWS to help maintain the security and performance of our website, which is hosted by Amazon AWS EU. BeeLiked develops its own website with internal developers and freelancers located in Germany, all of whom are bound by confidentiality under our contract.
Photos if you choose to share them, for example, if your email includes your photo or automatically makes it appear along with your message (you manage this through your own email platform’s preference settings).
We capture feedback you share with us directly or through our communication channels regarding our campaigns and services. Testimonials you’ve given us permission to include on our website (thank you!).
You have given us permission, which you can withdraw at any time. We need your Explicit Consent to process sensitive data like health-related data (Special Data) or to transfer your Personal Data outside the EEA where we don’t have another basis for doing so, or for any Automated Decision Making (‘ADM’) that has significant legal or other effects. We currently don’t process Special Data or conduct ADM.

We conduct Legitimate Interests Assessments (LIA’s) whenever we rely on Legitimate Interests and, where appropriate, Data Protection Impact Assessments (DPIAs).
For example, we do some limited profiling to target products and services to you that we’re quite confident your company will like and to avoid bombarding you with those you won’t. To do this, we need to learn more about you and your preferences, your role in the company, in addition to company data such as your company’s energy needs. We ensure we have appropriate safeguards to prevent this information from being misused and ensure we strike the right balance:
When we need it… and only by those who need it….
Click unsubscribe or manage your marketing preferences by clicking the unsubscribe link in our emails. Tell us you no longer want to receive marketing calls or emails and we’ll remove you from our list immediately.
If we can’t process this Personal Data, or if it’s inaccurate, it may take us longer to determine how to support you. For example, if we don’t know which campaign page, you’re on when you start a chat or submit a query, we’ll need to spend more time trying to identify your needs before we can start helping you.
If we aren’t able to get profile, technical, usage and marketing and communications data (e.g. click and view data, customer feedback, page visits) we won’t be able to use that data to optimise our services to meet consumer demands or develop campaigns you and your audience will love, which means you might either receive communications that aren’t suited to you, or you may miss out ones tailored to you, alert you to the latest products, tools and services we think will optimise your campaigns.
Special Data requires higher levels of protection. We don’t need to Process this type of data for our business, but if we did, we would ensure it receives a greater level of protection as required under DP Law.
If you click on a link to third-party content, or like or share specific content, this will either take you to those third-party sites or applications (e.g. Twitter) or send your Personal Data to that third party related to your click. We have no control over their use of your Personal Data in this regard. However, we do get aggregated data about clicks and shares which are not attributable to individual visitors. We encourage you to read the Data Privacy Notice of websites you visit.
Need-to-know is the default…
Within the company… Only those individuals within our company or the third parties listed under the ‘With Whom’ column of the At-a-Glance table can see or access your Personal Data, and they only Process the specific data they need to fulfil their tasks. We have implemented internal measures to enforce this need-to-know access and to ensure those who do Process it do so on our instructions and under a duty of confidentiality. These measures include:
With our service providers and vendors… We do not allow our third-party service providers to use your Personal Data for their own purposes. Moreover, we’re selective. We’ve chosen providers that offer strong security and who understand their obligations when it comes to your privacy. For example, Slack has several third-party security certifications that provide additional assurance. You can learn about our key vendors by clicking the links in the chart under the heading ‘ The types of Personal Data we Process about you... ‘
Wherever we Process your Personal Data jointly with another Controller (Joint Controller), we establish clear lines of accountability to ensure your rights are respected and our obligations are met, and we adhere to the principles and approach we mentioned earlier to minimise how much Personal Data we use.
In all cases, wherever possible, we require third parties to respect the security of your Personal Data and to treat it in accordance with DP Law through binding contracts. We minimise how much of your Personal Data needs to be transferred to ensure this objective is meant.
If we sell or restructure all or part of the business, we will share some of your Personal Data with other third parties in the context of the transaction. In this situation we will, so far as possible, share anonymised data with the other parties before the transaction completes. Once the transaction is completed, we will share your Personal Data with the other parties if and to the extent required under the terms of the transaction and on the basis of Legitimate Interests. This ensures seamless service for you, regardless of who owns the business, and data due diligence by us. We will notify you in such circumstances and you may object to this transfer.
We may also need to share your Personal Data with a regulator or to otherwise comply with the law. This may include making returns to HMRC, disclosures to financial services regulators and disclosures to shareholders such as directors’ remuneration reporting requirements.
We primarily Process your Personal Data – including back-ups and archives - in the EEA and in countries the European Commission has recognised as providing adequate levels of protection (Adequate countries).
We’ve implemented measures to prevent your Personal Data from accidental loss, unauthorised use, access, alteration or disclosure, some of which we’ve already discussed. We’ve implemented procedures and safeguards to deal with any suspected data security breach and will notify you and any applicable regulator of a suspected breach where legally required to do so. Details of these measures are available upon request.
We will only retain your Personal Data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes we mentioned in our At-a-Glance table, including to satisfy any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. This will vary according to the Personal Data involved and the purpose.
We consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the Personal Data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure, the purposes for which we use it, whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements. To illustrate:
In some circumstances, we may aggregate or anonymise your Personal Data so that it can no longer be associated with you, in which case we may use it without further notice to you. We do this for purchasing statistics, historical operations data, or to analyse sales and marketing trends. See the Your Data At-a-Glance Chart for a list of retention periods.
You have various rights with respect to your Personal Data:
Receive a copy of the Personal Data we hold about you and confirm we’re lawfully Processing it by making a Data Subject Access Request (DSAR). It’s free of charge unless your request is clearly unfounded or excessive.
Ask us to update, complete or correct your Personal Data at any time if you detect an inaccuracy. In fact, we encourage you to do so.
Get any Personal Data you’ve given us in an electronic form based on Consent or Contractual Necessity in a common machine-readable format. We can also transfer it to a third party if you ask.
Ask us to delete or remove Personal Data where there is no good reason or Lawful Basis for us continuing to process it. You also have the right to ask us to delete or remove your Personal Data where you have exercised your right to Objection. We can refuse in certain circumstances. Find out more, here.
Object to any Processing we do based on Legitimate Interests. You also have the right to object where we are processing your Personal Data for direct marketing purposes.
Not to be subject to automated decision-making without human intervention that has significant legal or other effects.
Suspend the Processing of some of your Personal Data, for example, if you want us to establish its accuracy or the reason for processing it.
Withdraw consent at any time and we will stop Processing it unless we have another legitimate basis for doing so in law. Where we rely on your consent, we also explain how you can easily withdraw it.
We will need to confirm your identity to confirm your right to access the information or exercise any of your other rights. This is to prevent Personal Data being disclosed to anyone who has no right to receive it.
You can find out more about your rights by visiting the Information Commissioner’s Office website.
If you are unhappy with the way we handle your personal data, we encourage you to contact Privacy@beeliked.com
You may complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office. You can find the details here.
Withdraw consent at any time and we will stop Processing it unless we have another legitimate basis for doing so in law. Where we rely on your consent, we also explain how you can easily withdraw it.
A living individual. We’ll just say ‘you’, ‘your’ or ‘individuals’ in this Notice.
The person or entity that decides what, how and why to Process Personal Data. We’ll use ‘we’ ‘our’ and ‘us,’ since we’re the Data Controller.
The person or entity that Processes Personal Data on behalf of a Data Controller according to their instructions.
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the UK Data Protection Act 2018 (DPA 2018), the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulation 2003 (UK PECR), and other data protection legislation, as amended from time to time.
A person or entity that decides what, how and why to Process Personal Data jointly with another Data Controller.
Anything we do to Personal Data throughout its lifecycle: generating, scraping, collecting, sharing, storing, accessing, deleting, recording, organising – whether manually or using automation.
Any information relating to an identifiable individual, even if we don’t know their name. That means that any data that, alone or with other information, can be used to figure out who an individual is or to target or impact an individual – like location, IP address, ID number, image or voice, or identifiable cookies – is likely to be Personal Data. Even Personal Data that’s been ‘pseudonymised’ (i.e. identifiers have been stripped away but the pseudonym could be reverse-engineered or linked back to the individual) is Personal Data.
Unless data is truly anonymous, assume it’s Personal Data.
Special categories of more sensitive Personal Data that requires a higher level of protection, such as information about a person’s health or sexual orientation. Special Data is subject to more stringent safeguards, and we’re only allowed to Process it in certain cases.
