What kind of personal data might we ask you to provide?
We will only ever ask for personal data if it is required for a specific purpose; with that in mind we have created a full list of all the kinds of personal data that we may ask you to provide in order to achieve those purposes.

In such cases the lawful basis of us processing the personal data is that it is necessary for the performance of a contract.​​​​​​​
​
​
We may also process your personal data in accordance with our legitimate business interests; this is on the basis that we need the personal data to achieve the various purposes and that it could be reasonable for an individual to expect their data to be used for those purposes.

Where we have received your consent to do so we will process your personal data to inform you of the goods and services provided by our partners or other third-party organisations.
​
You may withdraw your consent for us to process your personal data for these purposes at any time. After a withdrawal of consent request is received, we may contact you to verify the request.

We may gather personal data from sources including:
-
Technical sources that gather data over time when you visit our online platforms. These are known as “internet cookies” If you would like more information about how we use internet cookies, please see our cookies policy.

​​
Who might we share your information with?
In order to achieve the above stated purposes for which we process your personal data, we may need to share your personal data with various third-party service providers who act as data processors.
​
We may share your personal data with third party organisations acting as data controllers or with specific individuals, groups or other organisations who act as neither data controllers nor data processors, but only where we are either legally required to do so by law or where doing so is necessary to achieve the intended stated purpose of processing the data.
​
In the event that we sell or reorganise our business, or if otherwise required by law or by an authorised regulator, we may transfer your personal data as a part of the general business data to the relevant parties.

You may request that we erase your personal data at any time, though in cases where there is a remaining relevant or legal reason why we are required to keep the data we may do so, but we will then restrict the amount of processing being conducted to what is absolutely necessary in line with your legal rights in order to minimise the impact the processing will have.​
