How we will use your personal information?
We will only use your personal information when the law allows us to. Most commonly, we will use personal information we collect about you and your visit to our websites in the following circumstances:
- to carry out our obligations arising under contracts we have entered into with you.
- where it is necessary for our legitimate interests (or those of a third party) and your own interests and fundamental rights do not override those interests (for example, to provide you with the information, products and services that you request from us, or for our internal business management and planning).
- where we need to comply with a legal obligation; and to notify you about changes to our products, services or this statement. If you consent to us doing so, we will also use this information to provide you with:
- information about goods and services we offer that are similar to those that you have already purchased or required about
- information about other goods or services we offer that we feel may interest you
- pricing information
- information about our training services
- information about events we may hold
- If you do not want us to use your data in this way, or no longer want us to do so, please inform us of your preference by not ticking the relevant box to give your consent when you provide the information
- We use this information: to help diagnose problems with our server and to administer our websites, including improving our websites and ensure that content is presented in the most effective manner for you and your computer for our internal operations to allow us to determine statistical usage of the websites and its associated pages and for research purposes. This allows us to see which areas are more popular than others on the websites, the paths taken to reach each page, and it also allows us to gauge the effectiveness of any promotional programs we may be running at the time; to measure or understand the effectiveness of advertising we serve to you and others on our Websites; and as part of our efforts to keep our site safe and secure.
Some of the above grounds for processing will overlap and there may be several grounds which justify our use of your personal information.
In the event that you should dispute the correctness of your data archived by us, we will usually need some time to verify this claim. During the time that this investigation is ongoing, you have the right to demand that we restrict the processing of your personal data.
We will only use your personal information for the purposes for which we collected it, unless we reasonably consider that we need to use it for another reason and that reason is compatible with the original purpose. If we need to use your personal information for an unrelated purpose, we will notify you and we will explain the legal basis which allows us to do so.
Please note that we may process your personal information without your knowledge or consent, in compliance with the above rules, where this is required or permitted by law.
