Third-party disclosure

I sometimes host competitions and giveaways on my site. In these cases, I will require participants details such as Name and E-mail address.

In this instance I will need to share your Name and E-mail address with the company offering the competition prize. I may also be required to provide your postal address in order for the company to send you the prize – I will always ask your permission before doing so.

 

Once I have passed over your details to the company offering the prize, I do not have any control over how they use your data.

 

In the event that the online software I use to facilitate competitions and giveaways incurs a security breach, I will notify the ICO within 72 hours of being aware of the breach. I will endeavour to notify all competition entrants for whom I have details as soon as is reasonably and safely practicable.

 

I will never sell, barter or share your personal information with advertisers or a third party unless we have your permission or are required by law to do so.
