Our commitment to your privacy and security
- Haymarket is committed to protecting your privacy and security. From time to time we may invite you to supply personal information in order for us to authenticate your identity or to provide you with services (such as access to our subscriber-only services, our bulletin board, email newsletters and competitions). In order to deliver such services, we will need to process and store your personal information and may need to transfer it to Haymarket’s relevant partner(s) for processing both inside and outside the European Economic Area (EEA). By submitting your personal information, you consent to such processing and transfers in connection with such services or offers and for any other purposes to which you consent at the time you provide the information or as provided in this privacy policy.
- Haymarket is registered in accordance with and seeks to comply with the UK Data Protection Act 1998. We follow appropriate security procedures in the storage and disclosure of personal information so as to prevent unauthorised access by third parties. We also require those parties to whom we transfer personal information to comply with the same. However, the Internet is not a totally secure medium and you acknowledge and agree that Haymarket shall not be responsible for any unauthorised use, distribution, damage or destruction of personal data, except to the extent we are required to accept such responsibility by the Data Protection Act 1998.
- This Policy only applies to the use that we make of data provided to us via the Internet and email. Other uses may be made of data provided to Haymarket in correspondence, by telephone or by other means not detailed in this Policy.
