We may also use cookies to enable us to collect data that may include personal information.

We may also disclose your personal information to a trusted third party who also holds other information about you. This third party may combine that information in order to enable it and us to develop anonymised consumer insights so that we can better understand your preferences and interests, personalise your experience and enhance the products and services that you receive.

3. Security

We may hold your personal information in either electronic or hard copy form. We take reasonable steps to protect your personal information from misuse, interference and loss, as well as unauthorised access, modification or disclosure and we use a number of physical, administrative, personnel and technical measures to protect your personal information. For example, we ensure all servers where your personal information is stored are encrypted. When records containing personal information are no longer required for use, or to be kept by law, we delete the information or permanently de-identify it.

However, as our website is linked to the Internet, we cannot provide any assurance regarding the security of transmission of information you communicate to us. We also cannot guarantee that the information you supply will not be intercepted while being transmitted over the Internet. Accordingly, any personal information or other information which you transmit to us is transmitted at your own risk.

4. Accessing or correcting your personal information

4.1 Access

You can access the personal information we hold about you by contacting us using the Contact us information below. We will provide you access within 30 days if it is reasonable and practicable to do so, but in some circumstances it may take longer. Sometimes, we may not be able to provide you with access to all of your personal information and, where this is the case, we will tell you why. We will also need to verify your identity when you request your personal information, to ensure that we do not provide your information to anyone who does not have the right to that information.

We do not usually charge you for access to your personal information. However, if the request is complex, we may charge you the marginal cost of providing the access, such as staff costs of locating and collating information or copying costs.

We will normally try to resolve correction requests within 30 days of you making a request, but in some circumstances it may take longer.
