Disclosure of your information
In order to provide our products and services to you or to otherwise fulfil the contractual arrangements that we have with you, we may need to appoint other organisations to carry out some of the data processing activities on our behalf.

Some of the organisations to which we may disclose your personal information are situated outside of the United Kingdom and European Union in countries which may not have laws that protect privacy rights as extensively as in the United Kingdom. If we do transfer your personal information to other territories, we will take proper steps to ensure that your information is protected in accordance with this privacy policy.
In all instances where we disclose your information to third parties, we will ensure that your information is appropriately protected.
