7. To respond to your enquiries
If you contact us about our Services or more generally, then we will use your personal data to respond to your enquiries. Where you contact us, you consent to us processing your personal data to respond to your query.
In line with the legitimate interests we have in promoting our business and offering customer services, we will process your enquiries to provide you with information about our Services that we think will be of interest to you.
We may process enquiries to take steps you ask of us with a view to entering into and/or performing a contract with you to provide you with our Services. You are under no obligation to provide us with any details, but if you don’t provide all relevant information, we may not be able to help.
We may also collect information that you provide to us voluntarily when enquiring about our Services or more generally, for example, when you communicate with us via emails. This information is only ever processed to respond to your enquiry or with your explicit consent.
8. All content you submit to us.
If you send us objectionable content or otherwise behave in a disruptive manner when using our Services, we may process personal data included in your messages to respond to and stop such behaviour.
We process personal data in this way to ensure that use of our Services are lawful, does not disrupt, does not harass our staff or other individuals, and to enforce our legal rights and to comply with our legal obligations.
Where we reasonably believe you are or may be in breach of the law (for instance, because content you send amounts to harassment or is defamatory), we may use your personal information to inform relevant third parties such as your email/internet provider or law enforcement agencies about the content.
Where we process personal data in this way, we will hold that personal information on our systems for as long as is reasonably necessary to achieve these objectives.
Where we rely on legitimate interests as a ground for processing your personal data, we make sure we consider and balance any potential impact on you (both positive and negative) and your rights before we process your personal data for our legitimate interests.
9. Do we share your personal information with anyone else?
We keep your information confidential.
We may disclose your information to our personnel, suppliers or subcontractors insofar as it is reasonably necessary for the purposes set out in this privacy policy, provided that they do not make independent use of the information, and have agreed to adhere to the rules set out in this privacy policy.
In addition, we may disclose your information to the extent that we are required to do so by law (which may include to government bodies and law enforcement agencies); in connection with any legal proceedings or prospective legal proceedings; and to establish, exercise or defend our legal rights (including providing information to others for the purposes of fraud prevention).
If we are involved in a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or a portion of our business or assets, the information we hold may be included as part of that sale, in which case you will be notified via email and/or a prominent notice on the website of any changes in ownership or use of your information, as any choices you may have regarding that information.
Except as provided above, we will not provide your information to third parties.
10. Security
