Providing information to others

We work closely with trusted partners with whom we need to share personal information to help us run this site and offer our products and services to you. Where appropriate, information may be provided to these partners in an aggregated form, such that it would not personally identify you. Our partners include:

  • law enforcement bodies, in order to comply with any legal obligation or court order and, where we are otherwise requested to provide information, we may provide it but only in accordance with applicable privacy and data protection laws.

We may also provide information to third party service providers who, as data processors, will only process information on our behalf and under our instructions to help run some of our internal business operations including email distribution, IT services and customer services, or to provide advertising on the Site.

These recipients , both service providers and Parc Supplies LTD entities may be located in the UK, in other countries in the European Economic Area or elsewhere in the world, such as for example the United States of America, that do not offer an equivalent level of protection of privacy as in the European Economic Area. Different privacy laws may apply in these countries and you understand and unambiguously consent to the transfer of personal information to these countries, group companies and service providers.

We only make these arrangements or transfers where we are satisfied that adequate levels of protection are in place to protect any information held in that country or that the service provider acts at all times in compliance with applicable privacy laws. Where required under applicable laws we will take measures to ensure that personal information handled in other countries will receive at least the same level of protection as it is given in your home country.

In the event that your personal information is transferred to a foreign jurisdiction, it may be subject to the laws of that jurisdiction and we may be required to disclose it to the courts, law enforcement agencies or governmental authorities in those jurisdictions but we will only do so where required by applicable laws.

We will only share information with such organisations where we have your permission to do so in accordance with this Policy, or it is mandatory under the corresponding applicable laws.

You agree that we may disclose or share your personal information with such partners in order that we may operate the Site and offer our products and services to you.
