We will only use your personal data when the law allows us to. Most

To the extent we process your personal data for any other purposes, we
ask for your consent in advance or require that our partners obtain
such consent.

have clicked on their advertisement on any given day). We may also

We may make use of the personal data we have collected from you to

INTERNATIONAL TRANSFERS
Our Services are global and your personal data may be stored and
processed in any country where we have operations, our staff are
located or where we engage service providers engaged in, among other
things, the fulfilment of your order, the processing of your payment
details or the provision of support services. This will involve a
transfer of your personal data to countries outside of your country of
residence, where data protection rules are different from those of your
country of residence.
Processing of your personal data will involve a transfer of data to
countries outside the European Economic Area ("EEA"), Switzerland or
the UK.
We will take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that your
personal data is treated securely and in accordance with this Privacy
Policy. In particular, this means that your personal data will only be
transferred to a country that provides an adequate level of protection
(for example, where the European Commission or the UK Data Protection
Authority, ("ICO") has determined that a country provides an adequate
level of protection) or where the recipient is bound by standard
contractual clauses according to conditions provided by the European
Commission or ICO.
Our Site and Services are accessible via the internet and may
potentially be accessed by anyone around the world. Other users may
access the Site or Services from outside the EEA, Switzerland or the
UK. This means that where you chose to post your personal data on our
Site or within the Services, it could be accessed from anywhere around
the world and therefore a
transfer of your personal data outside of the EEA, Switzerland or the
UK may be deemed to have occurred.
DATA SECURITY
We have put in place appropriate security measures to prevent your
personal data from being accidentally lost, used or accessed in an
unauthorised way, altered or disclosed. For example, all information
you provide to us is stored on our secure servers. Any credit card
information or payment transactions will be encrypted using SSL
technology. Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a
password which enables you to access certain parts of the Site or
Services, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential.
We ask you not to share any password with anyone. In addition, we limit
access to your personal data to those employees, agents, contractors
and other third parties who have a business need to know. They will
only process your personal data on our instructions and they are
subject to a duty of confidentiality.
We have put in place procedures to deal with any personal data breach
and will notify you and any applicable regulator of a breach where we
are legally required to do so.
Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the Internet is not
completely secure. Although we will endeavour to protect your personal
data, we cannot guarantee the security of your personal data
transmitted to our Site or the Services. Any transmission is at your
own risk. Once we have received your personal data, we will use strict
procedures and security features to try to prevent unauthorised access.
LINKS TO OTHER WEBSITES
Our Site and Services may, from time to time, contain links to and from
the websites of our partner networks, advertisers and affiliates. If
you follow a link to any of these websites, please note that these
websites have their own privacy policies and that we do not accept any
responsibility or liability for these policies. Please check these
policies before you submit any personal data to these websites.
USE OF BLOGS, FORUMS AND CHAT ROOMS
Any information that you post to areas of the Site or Services that are
viewable by others (for example, to a blog, forum or chat-room) will
not be treated as proprietary, private, or confidential. We have no
obligation to monitor such posts to the Site or Services or to exercise
any editorial control over such posts; however, we reserve the right to
review such posts and to remove any material that, in our judgment, is
not appropriate. Posting, transmitting, promoting, using, distributing
or storing content that could subject us to any legal liability,
whether in tort or otherwise, or that is in violation of any applicable
law or regulation, or otherwise contrary to commonly accepted community
standards, is prohibited, including without limitation information and
material protected by copyright, trademark, trade secret, nondisclosure
or confidentiality agreements, or other intellectual property rights.
YOUR RIGHTS
You have the right under Data Protection Law, free of charge, to
request:
* Access to your personal data.
* Rectification or deletion of your personal data.
* A restriction on the processing of your personal data.
* Object to the processing of your personal data.
* A transfer of your personal data (data portability) in a
structured, machine readable and commonly used format.
* Withdraw your consent to us processing your personal data, at any
time.
If you wish to exercise any of the above rights, please contact us as
set out at the end of this Privacy Policy. We will respond to such
queries within 30 days and deal with requests we receive from you, in
accordance with the provisions of Data Protection Law. Occasionally it
could take us longer, if your request is particularly complex or you
have made a number of requests. In this case, we will notify you and
keep you updated.
You will not have to pay a fee to access your personal data (or to
exercise any of the other rights). However, we may charge a reasonable
fee if your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive or excessive.
Alternatively, we could refuse to comply with your request in these
circumstances.
We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm
your identity and ensure your right to access your personal data (or to
exercise any of your other rights). This is a security measure to
ensure that personal data is not disclosed to any person who has no
right to receive it. We may also contact you to ask you for further
information in relation to your request to speed up our response.
MARKETING COMMUNICATIONS
* Marketing: We may use your Identity, Contact, Technical, Usage and
Profile Data to form a view on what we think you may want or need,
or what may be of interest to you. This is how we decide which
products, services and offers may be relevant for you (we call this
marketing).
* Promotional Offers from us: We will send you marketing emails if
you "opt in" to receive marketing emails when registering on our
Site, or if you have enquired about, or purchased any of our goods
or services from us and you have not opted out of receiving such
marketing.
* Third Party Marketing: We will obtain your express opt-in consent
before we share your personal data with any third party for
marketing purposes.
* Opt out: Please note that, if you change your mind about being sent
marketing emails you can "opt out" at any time by clicking the
"unsubscribe" link at the bottom of any marketing email. Once you
"opt out", you will no longer receive any marketing emails from us.
We will continue to communicate with you regarding your service
billing and support via email and where we send push notifications
from time to time in order to update you about any service updates,
events and promotions we may be running. If you no longer wish to
receive these communications, please disable these in the settings
on your device.
DATA RETENTION
We retain personal data for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfil
the purposes for which it was provided or collected, including for the
purposes of satisfying any legal, regulatory, tax, accounting or
reporting requirements. We may retain your personal data for a longer
period in the event of a complaint, if we reasonably believe there is a
prospect of litigation in respect of our relationship with you, to
comply with law enforcement requests, maintain security, prevent fraud
and abuse, resolve disputes, enforce our legal agreements, or fulfil
your request to "unsubscribe" from further messages from us.
To determine the appropriate retention period for personal data, we
consider the amount, nature and sensitivity of the personal data, the
potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure of your
personal data, the purposes for which we process your personal data and
whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the
applicable legal, regulatory, tax, accounting or other requirements.
This will be for as long as we provide access to the Site or Services
to you, your account with us remains open or any period set out in any
relevant contract you have with us. After you have closed your account
or ceased using the Services as set out below.
We will retain some anonymised information after your account has been
closed and we may use this for research or statistical purposes, in
which case we may use this information indefinitely without further
notice to you.
Please note: After you have closed your account or deleted information
from your account, any information you have shared with others will
remain visible. We do not control data that other users may have copied
from the Site or Services. Your profile may continue to be displayed in
the services of others (e.g. search engine results) until they refresh
their cache.
COMPLAINTS
Our intention is to meet the highest standards when collecting and
using personal data. For this reason, we take complaints we receive
very seriously. We encourage users to notify us if they think that our
collection or use of personal data is unfair, misleading or
inappropriate. If you have any complaints about our use of your
personal data, please contact us as set out at the end of this Privacy
Policy or contact your local data protection supervisory authority.
