1. Information we process because we have a contractual obligation with you
When you buy a product or service from us, or otherwise agree to our terms and conditions,
a contract is formed between you and us. In order to carry out our obligations under that contract
we must process the information you give us. Some of this information may be personal information.
We may use it in order to:

1.3. provide you with our services
1.4. provide you with suggestions and advice on products, services and how to obtain
the most from using our website

have requested we use the information before we enter into a legal contract. We shall
continue to process this information until the contract between us ends or is terminated
by either party under the terms of the contract.
2. Information we process with your consent
Where there is no contractual relationship between us, such as when you browse our
website or ask us to provide you more information about our business, including our
products and services, you provide your consent to us to process information that may
be personal information.
Wherever possible, we aim to obtain your explicit consent to process this information, for
example, by asking you to agree to our use of cookies.

message by e-mail to which you would reasonably expect us to reply.
Except where you have consented to our use of your information for a specific purpose,
we do not use your information in any way that would identify you personally.
We continue to process your information on this basis until you withdraw your consent,
or it can be reasonably assumed that your consent no longer exists.
