We will try to keep all such changes to a minimum. We recommend that you check this policy from time to time to see if it has changed. We will always state at the bottom of this policy the date on which it was last updated.

3. HOW WE COLLECT YOUR INFORMATION

We collect your information in the following ways.

· When you give it to us, for example when you:

- opt in to receive any of our newsletters or other marketing information

· if it is passed to us by our affiliates, partners or other third parties with your consent

· automatically using “cookies”, web beacons and other tracking systems (see the “Automatic Information” section below for more details on how we use cookies and how you can disable them if you choose to do so).

4. HOW WE USE AND DISCLOSE YOUR INFORMATION

We use your information operationally to:

· identify your personal preferences for any communications to you such as newsletters

· to respond to or deal with any queries or complaints that you may have

In addition and with your consent we (and if applicable, our partners or other trusted third parties) use your information for certain marketing, market research, analysis and related purposes. It is up to you how much or how little information you allow us to use for these purposes. Our on screen notices will ask for your explicit permission (often by way of a tick box) for such additional purposes. These purposes include:

· to communicate with you from time to time by email, by mobile (using SMS or, if your mobile device permits, MMS messages or similar technologies) and occasionally by post with our newsletters, information, offers and other material which may interest you (such communications may be sent by third party service providers on our behalf)

· to conduct market research, for example by asking you to participate in a survey about topical issues conducted by us or trusted partners or third parties. We will always try to tell you before you participate in the survey how any information you provide in the survey will be used

· to enable us and third parties acting on our behalf to analyse your information, in a non-identifying form, (generally in the form of statistics), so that we can identify trends about usage of our online or other services and improve them

We also reserve the right to access and disclose your personal information in order to comply with applicable laws, to comply with lawful requests from governments, law enforcement agencies or parties whose request we reasonably consider to be justified in connection with any allegations by any party about your abuse of our services, to operate our systems properly or to protect ourselves or our users.

Some of the partners and third parties with whom we share your information may be outside of the European Union, by using our online services you consent to the transfer of your personal information outside of the EU.
