USING YOUR INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH DATA PROTECTION LAWS Data protection laws require that we meet certain conditions before we can use your data in the manner described in this privacy policy. We take our responsibilities under data protection laws extremely seriously, including meeting these conditions. To use your personal data, we will rely on two conditions, depending on the activities we are carrying out: Consent: We may provide you with marketing information about our services or products where you have provided your explicit consent for us to do so. Legitimate interests: To use your personal data for any other purpose described in this privacy policy, we will rely on a condition known as “legitimate interests”. It is in our legitimate interests to collect your personal data as it provides us with the information that we need to provide our services to you more effectively. Effectively, this requires us to carry out a balancing test of our interests in using your personal data (for example, in order to provide you with the information, products and services that you request from us), against the interests you have as a citizen and the rights you have under data protection laws (for example, to not have your data sold to third party marketing companies without your knowledge, or store your personal data in insecure or unstable countries or regions). The outcome of this balancing test will determine whether we can use your personal data in the ways described in this privacy policy (except in relation to marketing, where we will always rely on your explicit consent). We will always act reasonably and give full and proper consideration to your interests in carrying out this balancing test. There is no obligation upon you to provide us with any information.
