Third Party Services We may pass your information to our third-party service providers, agents, subcontractors and other associated organisations for the purposes of completing tasks and providing services to you on our behalf.

We recommend that you read the privacy policies of third-party providers so that you can understand the manner in which your personal information will be handled by them. Please be aware that certain providers may be located in or have facilities that are located in a different jurisdiction than either you or us. If you elect to proceed with a transaction that involves the services of a third-party service provider, then your information may become subject to the laws of the jurisdiction(s) in which that service provider or its facilities are located. Once you leave our website or are redirected to a third-party website or application, you are no longer governed by this privacy policy or our website’s terms of service. Why we need it We need your personal data to provide services to you, through our website, by telephone, post and email and to ensure compliance with legal obligations, public and legitimate interests and where it is necessary for contractual arrangements. What we do with it We only ever use your personal data with your consent, or where it is necessary: To enter into, or perform, a contract with you To comply with a legal duty To protect your vital interests For our own (or a third party’s) lawful interests, provided your rights don’t override these. In any event, we’ll only use your information for the purpose or purposes it was collected for (or for closely related purposes). We may process personal information for certain legitimate business purposes, which include some or all of the following: Where the processing enables us to enhance, modify, personalise or otherwise improve our services/communications for the benefit of our customers To ensure that we carry out legal/statutory obligations ie to comply with health and safety regulations, to provide statutory information to the tax authorities etc to identify and prevent fraud to enhance the security of our network and information systems to better understand how people interact with our websites to provide postal communications which we think will be of interest to you to determine the effectiveness of promotional campaigns advertising. Whenever we process data for these purposes we will ensure that we always keep your personal data rights in high regard and take account of these rights at all times. When we process your personal data for our legitimate interests, we will make sure that we consider and balance any potential impact on you (both positive and negative), and your rights under data protection laws. Our legitimate business interests do not automatically override your interests – we will not use your personal data for activities where our interests are overridden by the impact on you (unless we have your consent or are otherwise required or permitted by the law). You have the right to object to this processing if you wish to do so. Please bear in mind that if you object this may affect our ability to carry out tasks above for your benefit. Where we keep it We are based in the UK and we store our data within the EU. Some organisations which provide services to us may transfer personal data outside of the EU, but we will only allow them to do this if your data is adequately protected. For example, some of our systems use Microsoft products. As a US company, it may be that using their products result in personal data being transferred to or accessible from the US. However, we will allow this as certain personal data will still be adequately protected (as Microsoft is certified under the USA’s Privacy Shield scheme). How long we keep it We will only use and store information for so long as it is required for the purposes it was collected. How long information will be stored depends on the information in question and what it is being used for. For example, if you ask us not to send you marketing e-mails, we will stop storing your e-mails for marketing purposes (though we’ll keep a record of your preference not to be e-mailed). We continually review what information we hold and delete what is no longer required. We never store payment card information. We will not retain your data for any longer that necessary and the longest time that we will hold your data will be six years unless there is a legal requirement to hold data for an extended period.
