We also collect, use and share Aggregated Data such as statistical or demographic data for any purpose. Aggregated Data may be derived from your personal data but is not considered personal data in law as this data does not directly or indirectly reveal your identity. For example, we may aggregate your Usage Data to calculate the percentage of users accessing a specific website feature. However, if we combine or connect Aggregated Data with your personal data so that it can directly or indirectly identify you, we treat the combined data as personal data which will be used in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

Nor do we collect any information about criminal convictions and offences.

Most of the information described above comes directly from you but we do obtain some from third parties, e.g. where your information is passed to us from your employer as they have designated you as their contact person.

In this case, we may have to cancel the supply of a product or service, but we will notify you if this is the case at the time.

If you fail to provide personal information when applying for a role with us which is necessary for us to consider your application (such as evidence of qualifications or work history), we will not be able to process your application further.
