We provide your information to third parties only to the extent necessary to run our business, to our service providers, to fulfil any contracts we enter into with you.  We may release or disclose your information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with law, enforce our site policies or protect our rights, property or safety.

● You can ask us what information we hold about you. We won’t charge you a fee for this unless you ask for excessive information. If you make repeat requests or we don’t believe you have a proper reason for asking us, we might refuse your request.
● If you think that we have incorrect or incomplete information about you, you can request that we correct or update it. If we think the information is actually correct, we will tell you why. While we are assessing whether or not the information is incorrect or incomplete we will restrict the information.

● You may request us to delete your information (i) if we no longer need your information for the purpose that we collected it,(ii) if we asked you for consent to use your information, but you want to withdraw that consent, (iii) if you object to our use of your personal information and there is no legitimate business interest for us to keep using it, (iv) where we’re using your information against the law, (v) where there is a legal obligation that means your information has to be erased. We aren’t always obliged to delete your information when you request it, but if we don’t think we need to delete your information we will tell you the reason for it. If we are obliged to delete your information and we have provided that information to someone else, we will, where possible, ask them to delete the information.
● You have the right to object to us processing your information where we are processing your personal data for reasons of our legitimate interests and that processing is now causing you harm or you believe it is unlawful. However, If we can demonstrate that our lawful reasons override your objection or that we need to keep your information for legal claims, we are allowed to continue to process your personal information.
