Sharing your information

Just like most other organisations, we work with third-party service providers which provide important functions to us that allow us to be easier, faster, and friendlier in the way we deliver our services. We need to disclose user data to them from time to time, for any of the purposes set out above, so that the services can be performed. Listed below are the categories of the third-party service providers and business partners to whom we may disclose your data, together with the purpose of disclosure and type of information disclosed. Examples include:

Category of supplier	Purpose	Data disclosed
Hauliers	Inform of intended destination	Recipient details
Couriers	Inform of intended destination	Recipient details
PR & Marketing Agencies	Range of PR & marketing issues	Competition entrants

We may also disclose your personal information to third parties, if we are under a duty to disclose or share your personal data for legal or regulatory purposes, in relation to existing or future legal proceedings, for the prevention of fraud/loss or to protect the rights, property, safety of our group, our customers or others.

Data security

Information is stored by us on computers located in the UK. We may transfer the information to other offices and to other reputable third-party organisations as explained above. We do not send personal data outside of the European Economic Area (EEA). We may also store information in paper files.

We have data protection policies in place to manage and record your data privacy and preferences correctly and ensure that your data is stored securely to protect against its loss, misuse and alteration. We take steps to ensure that any organisations that we share your data with will have security protocols and policies in place to manage and record your data privacy and preferences correctly.

Unfortunately, the transmission of data across the internet is not completely secure and whilst we do our best to try to protect the security of your information we cannot ensure or guarantee that loss, misuse or alteration of data will not occur whilst data is being transferred.

We will keep your information only for as long as we need it to provide you with the goods, services or information you have required, to administer your relationship with us, to comply with the law, or to ensure we do not communicate with people that have asked us not to. When we no longer need information, we will always dispose of it securely, using specialist companies if necessary to do this work for us.

Job applicants, current and former employees

When individuals apply to work for us, we will only use the information they supply to us to process their application and to monitor recruitment statistics. Where we want to disclose information to a third party, for example where we want to take up a reference or obtain a ‘disclosure’ from the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS), we will not do so without informing them beforehand unless the disclosure is required by law. Personal information about unsuccessful candidates will be destroyed or deleted
