Depending on the nature of the business we are undertaking for you, the personal information we require may vary. In most cases we use only the information we require to meet our obligations under the contracts we agree with you.

Where we use your details to send you information about our company, we will either have a legitimate interest in doing so, or request your permission in doing so, if you withdraw your consent at any time we will immediately stop.
