• Where you have given us your consent to use your personal information in a particular manner, you have the right to withdraw this consent at any time, which you may do by contacting us as described in paragraph 11. Please note however that the withdrawal of your consent will not affect any use of your personal information made before you withdrew your consent.

3. SHARING OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION WITHIN OUR GROUP

• Our group consists of various companies which are under the same ultimate ownership as us. Where you provide personal information to one company within our group it may be shared with other companies within our group.

• We may share anonymised and aggregated information about our customers to third parties, such as advertisers, to allow them to select and send relevant adverts to our customers. We may also use such anonymised aggregate information to help advertisers reach the kind of audience they want to target.

5. TRANSFERRING YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION INTERNATIONALLY

6. RETENTION, UPDATING AND REMOVAL OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

• Where you provide us with personal information we may retain this information for future use, including providing you with news and updates of a type you have asked to receive.
• The duration for which we retain your personal information will differ depending on the type of information and the reason why we collected it from you. However, in some cases personal information may be retained on a long term basis: for example, personal information that we need to retain for legal purposes will normally be retained for at least six years in accordance with usual commercial practice and regulatory requirements.
• It is important to ensure that the personal information we hold about you is accurate and up-to-date, and you should let us know if anything changes, for example if you change your email address, by contacting us using the details in paragraph 11.
• If you want to stop receiving any information from us, such as news and updates, please let us know by contacting us using the details in paragraph 11. It may take up to one month to unsubscribe you from marketing.
• Your decision to stop receiving information from us may result in the deletion of some of the personal information that we hold about you, but we may still retain personal information we require for other purposes, including where it is required for record keeping purposes.
• In certain circumstances you may be entitled to request the erasure of personal information that we hold about you. To make a request of this nature, please contact us, providing full details of the personal information you want to be erased and the reason(s) for your request. We will consider all requests upon receipt and confirm to you whether we are able to agree to your request.

7. COOKIES AND LOG FILES

• When you browse our website, we may use “cookies” to keep track of your visit and give you a better browsing experience. Where required by law, we will request your consent or offer an opt-out.
• In common with most websites, our website logs various information about visitors, including internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, internet service provider (ISP) information, referring / exit pages and date / time stamp. We may use this information to analyse trends, administer the website, track your movement around the website and gather broad demographic information.

8. SECURITY

• The protection of your personal information is very important to us and we have in place various security measures to ensure that your personal information is kept secure.
• However, you should be aware that the method you use to get in contact with us, such as email or post, may not be entirely secure and your personal information may be susceptible to being intercepted in transit. Equally, your personal information is at risk if a malicious third party gains access to your account on our customer portal or to any other place where your personal information is stored, such as your email account.
• You should therefore take all reasonable steps to keep your personal information secure, including choosing a secure password for your email account and not disclosing your passwords to anybody else. You should use a unique password for every account.
