IF YOU FAIL TO PROVIDE PERSONAL DATA
Where we need to collect personal data by law, or under the terms of a
contract we have with you and you fail to provide that data when requested, we
may not be able to perform the contract we have or are trying to enter into
with you (for example, where you do not provide suitable delivery instructions
to provide you with goods or services). In this case, we may have to cancel a
product or service you have with us but we will notify you if this is the case
at the time.

4. THIRD PARTY SOURCES OF DATA/DATA SHARING:
We also collect from and share data with the following providers:
·
Essential Service Providers: Sometimes,
other businesses give us data about you which we may need for our legitimate
interests of conducting business with you and on occasion they are necessary to
perform our contract with you. It usually comprises Financial Data or
Transaction Data. This happens when we link through to third party payment
providers. They tell us that you have paid for your products and, where
relevant and/or necessary they will provide us with your Contact Data and
Transaction Data. We also might engage third party contractors to provide us
with technical or delivery services that are related to your account with us.
·
Professional Advisers and Investors: We may also
share your data with professional advisers such as our lawyers and insurers to
manage risks and legal claims, and/or as part of our relationship and
obligations to our investor organisations. This is in our legitimate interests.
·
Group: It is possible we could sell
our business to a third party or re-organise our business or become insolvent.
In that scenario, our database of customers is one of the biggest parts of that
business and so we would need to share it with the third-party buyer and their
advisers. This is in the legitimate interests of selling our business. We may
also expand our group of companies and in this scenario we may share your data
within our group in order to improve our products and services and because of
some of our internal support services may be shared across the group. This is
in our legitimate interests of cost efficiency and growing our business. Where
this occurs, we will post a link to all group companies and their locations in
this Privacy Policy and they will use it in the ways set out in this Policy.
·
Law Enforcement/Legal Compliance: We will
cooperate with all third parties to enforce their intellectual property or
other rights. We will also cooperate with law enforcement requests from within
or outside your country of residence. This may include disclosing your personal
information to government or law enforcement agencies, or private parties, when
we have a good faith belief that disclosure is required by law or when we, in
our discretion, believe that disclosure is necessary to protect our legal
rights, or those of third parties and/or to comply with a judicial proceeding,
court order, fraud reduction or legal process served on us. In such cases, we
may raise or waive any legal objection or right available to us. These uses of
your data are in our legitimate interests of protecting our business security.
We may also use your data and share it with the recipients listed in this
Privacy Policy for the purpose of complying with our legal obligations.
The lawful bases for sharing and processing this data is set out in
