Who we share your data with

There are times when we are required to share the information we learn from you with other parties. We do not sell or rent this information to others but will send personally identifiable information about you to other companies or people in the following situations:

Agents -We will share your information with professional advisers, strategic partners, survey and research organisations, and other individuals and organisations that we employ or work with to perform functions in certain situations on our behalf. Examples of these functions include sending postal mail, faxes and email, handling credit card transactions, providing services, and following up on enquiries (including by phone, email, post or fax). These agents have access to the personal information required to perform their functions, but may not use it for any other purpose. This may also in certain circumstances involve the transfer of your information abroad.

How long we retain your data
