Legitimate interests — where it is necessary for the reasonable operation of our business, such as responding to enquiries, managing customer relationships, keeping appropriate records, improving our services and protecting our business.

Legal obligation — where we are required to process or retain information to comply with a legal requirement, including accounting and tax obligations.

Consent — where we specifically ask for your consent for a particular use of your information.

We retain appropriate records of payments and transactions for accounting, tax and business administration purposes.
