We will normally collect personal information from you only where we have your consent to do so, where we need your information to perform a contract with you, or where the processing is in our legitimate interests and not overridden by your fundamental rights. In some cases, we may also have a legal obligation to collect personal information from you or may otherwise need the personal information to protect your vital interests or those of another person.

If you have questions about or need further information concerning the legal basis on which we collect and use your personal information, please contact us using the details provided in the “Contact Us” section below.

8. RETENTION OF YOUR DATA AND DELETION

Your personal information will not be kept longer than is necessary for the specific purpose for which it was collected.
