Whilst We will use all reasonable efforts to safeguard Your Personal Data, You acknowledge that the use of the internet is not entirely secure and for this reason We cannot guarantee the security or integrity of Personal Data that is transferred from You or to You via the internet.
  • To the extent necessary for Us to provide any services to You or on Your behalf, or in connection with any contract or order we may enter into with You, We may share Your Personal Data with group companies and/or certain carefully chosen third parties with whom we engage from time to time for such purposes alone. For example, these may include access to and provision of third party software, data storage and backup facilities, payment processing and marketing. In some cases, such third parties may require access to some or all of Your data.
  • We may also share Your Personal Data with our third party IT contractors, for the purpose of them managing and improving our IT systems and Our Site.
