We need your personal data to comply with our contractual obligations. For example, where you have provided us with your email address to receive our services, we will use this information in order to effectively deliver and communicate our services.
If the law requires us to, we may need to collect and process your data. For example, we can pass on details of people involved in fraud or other criminal activity to applicable law enforcement.
We may require your data to pursue our legitimate interests in a way which might reasonably be expected as part of running our business and which does not materially impact your rights, freedom or interests.
We will use this information in our legitimate interests:
