1. Important Notice

We are committed to safeguarding your privacy. As the data “controller,” we are responsible for how your personal data is handled. You have the right to object to the processing of your data for our legitimate business interests or for direct marketing purposes, including any profiling related to those purposes. For more on your rights and how to exercise them, please see the “Your Rights” section.

5. Legal Grounds for Processing Your Data

Under data protection laws, we are only permitted to process your personal data when we have a valid legal basis for doing so. Depending on the situation, we rely on one or more of the following legal grounds:

a. Consent

We may process your personal data when you have given us your clear and informed consent. This applies to activities such as:

  • Sending you promotional communications about our products and services;
  • Sharing your details (name, email, postal address, phone number) with trusted business partners so they can send you marketing about their similar offerings;
  • Conducting surveys or other marketing research;
  • Requesting your credit score to help us offer you appropriate payment terms.

 

b. Contractual Necessity and Legal Obligations

We also process your personal data where it is necessary:

  • To fulfill the terms of our agreement with you (e.g., to deliver products or services, handle payments, or provide support);
  • To keep you informed about important updates to our services or terms;
  • To improve customer service;
  • To meet legal obligations, such as fraud prevention or responding to lawful requests from authorities.

 

Please note that if you choose not to provide certain personal data, we may not be able to offer you some or all of our services.

c. Legitimate Interests

Sometimes, we use your data to serve our legitimate business interests or those of a third party, as long as this doesn’t unfairly affect your rights or freedoms. This includes:

  • Delivering relevant services and tailored content;
  • Understanding our customer base and improving our products, services, and marketing;
  • Meeting contractual obligations to third parties;
  • Enhancing the performance and usability of our website;
  • Training staff to provide better service;
  • Managing internal records, audits, legal claims, and regulatory compliance.

 

If there’s a risk that your fundamental rights may be impacted, we will not rely solely on this ground unless we also have your consent or another valid legal reason.

6. Who We Share Your Personal Data With

We may share your personal data with:

  • Service providers and group companies who help us operate our business (e.g., payment processors, IT providers). These partners act on our behalf as “data processors” and are contractually bound to handle your data securely and only for specified purposes.
  • Regulatory authorities or law enforcement, if required by law or to protect our rights, safety, or the safety of others. For example, this may include sharing data for fraud prevention or investigation.

 

International Data Transfers

Some of our partners or systems may be located outside the European Economic Area (EEA). If your personal data is transferred to a country that does not have the same data protection standards as those in the EEA, we ensure that adequate safeguards are in place—such as data protection agreements or standard contractual clauses—to protect your data.

7. How Long We Keep Your Data

We only retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfill the purpose for which it was collected. Retention periods vary depending on:

  • Legal or regulatory requirements to keep certain data for a specific period;
  • The applicable statute of limitations for potential legal claims;
  • Ongoing or potential disputes;
  • Guidance from data protection authorities.

 

Once the data is no longer needed, we delete it securely from our systems.

8. Your Rights

You have several rights under data protection laws regarding the personal data we hold about you. These rights are designed to give you greater control over how your information is used.

Your Rights

What This Means

1. Right to be Informed

You have the right to be given clear, transparent, and easily understandable information about how we use your personal data and what your rights are — which is why we provide this Privacy Policy.

2. Right of Access

You can request a copy of the personal data we hold about you, along with details about how and why we are using it. This helps you stay informed and ensure we are using your data in accordance with the law.

3. Right to Rectification

If any personal data we hold about you is inaccurate or incomplete, you can ask us to correct or update it.

4. Right to Erasure (“Right to Be Forgotten”)

You can request that we delete your personal data when there is no valid reason for us to keep it. Please note, this right is not absolute and may not apply in certain circumstances.

5. Right to Restrict Processing

In specific situations, you can ask us to stop processing your personal data but still allow us to store it. This means we can keep the data but can’t use it until the restriction is lifted.

6. Right to Data Portability

You may request a copy of your personal data in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format. Where technically feasible, you can also ask us to transfer that data directly to another organisation.

7. Right to Object

You can object to us processing your personal data where we rely on legitimate interests or use it for direct marketing purposes, including any profiling related to those activities.

8. Right to Withdraw Consent

If you have provided your consent for any data processing, you can withdraw it at any time. This will not affect the legality of any processing that occurred before your consent was withdrawn.

9. Right to Lodge a Complaint

If you are concerned about how we handle your personal data, you have the right to file a complaint with the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) or your local data protection authority.
