This Privacy Policy applies only to information collected by the Services.

We will only collect personal information about you from a third party if it is unreasonable or impracticable for us to collect this information directly from you, or we are otherwise permitted, required or authorised by law to collect this information from the third party.

 

If we receive your personal information from a third party without having asked you for it, then within a reasonable time, we will determine whether we could have collected it in the ways outlined in paragraph 4 above. If we determine that it could not have been collected in one of those ways and it is lawful and reasonable to do so, then as soon as practicable we will destroy the information or ensure that it is de-identified.

We will only collect your sensitive information when we have your consent and the collection is reasonably necessary for us to carry out one or more of our functions or activities unless otherwise authorized by law. 

 

We will not use your sensitive information for the purposes of direct marketing unless you have given us permission in writing. We will always provide a simple means for you to "opt-out" from receiving direct marketing, which typically involves an "opt-out" link on emails, "tick-a-box" on the collection form or through a pop-up on your screen when you provide personal information online.

 

We will not use or disclose your personal information for the purposes of direct marketing material if you have previously told us not to.
