We also use Amazon Web Servers to store and protect data and GoNative to automatically convert our website into native apps for Android and iOS. These third parties have access to data we share with their platforms.
If you have an account as part of a business or organisation membership, please note that any personal data you submit to the platform may be viewed or monitored by your company’s account administrators.
The only other circumstances under which we would share your personal data are:
6.2 Parties with whom you may choose to share your information
When registering a personal account, you may choose to share any information, photographs or other content that you voluntarily submit to the Site or App either on public forums and public areas of the Site or App or within your private network (meaning other users you have invited or accepted as members of your closed network). Your profile information will be made public by default, but you may disable this in your privacy settings. Any data you submit to your profile will become available and viewable by the public and/or by other users as controlled by any applicable privacy settings that you define. To change your privacy settings on the Site or App, please visit the settings page once logged into your account. Once you have shared your content or made it public, that content may be re-shared by others.
When registering your profile through a business (“Third Party Business”), your profile information, its visibility and availability will be subject to the privacy settings and controls of that business (“Third Party Business Controls”). It is recommended that you request and familiarise yourself with the Third Party Business Controls as your data will be controlled by settings defined by the Third Party Business and not us.
If you choose to connect to social media networks from the our Site or App or post any of your content on our Site or App to those networks, then in accordance with your social media privacy settings, the personal information that you post, transmit, or otherwise make available on the social media platform may be viewed and/or used by other users of those networks and we have no control over such viewing and use and cannot prevent further use of such information by third parties. When you interact with us through social media networks, you acknowledge that we may access your information that is held by that account, solely in accordance with your social media privacy settings. Any links to social media are not under our control and remain solely your responsibility. You acknowledge that any information posted via social media through our Site or App, or any third party you allow to access your content, is done entirely at your own risk and that by posting to a public platform you make that information visible to third-parties who can use that information at their discretion.
You may review, modify, update, correct or remove any personal data you have submitted to the Site or App at any time. If you remove information that you posted to the Site or App, copies may remain viewable in cached and archived pages of the Site, or if other users or third party APIs have copied or saved that information.
Always think carefully before disclosing personal data or other information to other users or otherwise posting personal data on the Site or App. It’s important that you’re aware that any data you choose to disclose on the Site or App may then be viewed and even used by other users (in accordance with your settings and this Privacy Policy). We do not control the contents of communications made between users (although you can make a complaint about another user by contacting us using the information provided in the Contact section below).
You must respect the privacy of others and you must not disclose any personal details about other people including your family, friends, acquaintances, or other persons that may be misleading or cause them harm or offence. It is your responsibility to obtain their prior express permission in respect of any submission of their data at any time.
7. International Transfers
Some of the personal information we collect from you is stored within the U.K. and therefore fully protected under the Data Protection Legislation. However, some personal information we collect from you may be transferred to and stored at a destination outside the United Kingdom via Amazon Web Services (AWS). These are known as third countries and as such, we will take additional steps in order to ensure your personal information is treated as it would be within the UK, including (but not limited to) adopting the addendum to the European Commission’s standard contractual clauses for international data transfer (Addendum) or entering into an international data transfer agreement (IDTA) with our partners, as appropriate. By submitting an image, you agree to this transfer, storing or processing. In addition, we limit access to your personal data to those who have a business need to know and having procedures in place for dealing with data breaches. They will only process your personal data on our instructions and they are subject to a duty of confidentiality. You can obtain more details of the protection given to your personal data when it is transferred outside the U.K. by reviewing AWS’s Privacy Policy or by contacting us as described in the Contact paragraph below.
