Legal grounds for processing personal data
We are required by law to set out in this privacy policy the legal grounds we rely on to process your personal data. We rely on one or more of the following:

• you have explicitly agreed to us processing your information for a specific reason;
• the processing is necessary to perform the agreement we have with you or to take steps to enter into an agreement with you;
• the processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation such as keeping records for tax purposes or providing information to a public body or law enforcement agency; or

• the processing is necessary for the purposes of a legitimate interest pursued by us or a third party, which might be:
   - to provide our services to you or our clients and other third parties and ensure that our client engagements are well-managed;
   - to prevent fraud;
   - to protect our business interests;
   - to ensure that complaints are investigated;
   - to evaluate, develop or improve our services or products; or
   - to keep you or our clients informed about relevant products and services, unless you have indicated at any time that you do not wish us to do so.

To the extent that we process any special categories of data relating to you for any of the purposes outlined above, we will do so because:
• you have given us your explicit consent to process that data;
• the processing is necessary to carry out our obligations under employment, social security or social protection law;
• the processing is necessary for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims; or
• you have made the data manifestly public.

Please note that in certain circumstances it may be still lawful for us to continue processing your information even where you have withdrawn your consent, if one of the other legal bases described above is applicable.
Sharing your personal data
In connection with any of the purposes outlined above, we may disclose details about you to:

• third parties that provide services or online platforms to us;
• competent authorities (including courts and authorities regulating us);
• your employer and/or its advisers, or your advisers;
• any other person or organisation after a restructure, sale or acquisition of Infuse, as long as they use your information for the same purposes we did;
• credit reference agencies or other organisations that help us make credit decisions and reduce the incidence of fraud; and
• other third parties that reasonably require access to personal data relating to you.
Protecting your personal data
We use a range of measures to ensure we keep your personal data secure, accurate and up to date. These include:

• education and training to relevant staff to ensure they are aware of our privacy obligations when handling personal data;
• administrative and technical controls to restrict access to personal data to a ‘need to know’ basis; and
• technological security measures, including fire walls, encryption and anti-virus software.

The transmission of data over the internet (including by e-mail) is never completely secure, so although we use appropriate measures, we cannot guarantee the security of data transmitted to us or by us.
How long we keep your personal data for
We seek to ensure that we only keep your personal data for the longest of:

• the period necessary for the relevant activity or services;
• any retention period that is required by law; or
• the period in which litigation or investigations might arise in respect of the services.
Your rights
You have various rights in relation to your personal data. In particular, you have a right to:

• obtain confirmation that we are processing your personal data and request a copy of the personal data we hold about you;
• be informed about the processing of your personal data (i.e. for what purposes, what types, to what recipients it is disclosed);
• ask that we update and/or correct the personal data we hold about you;
• ask that we delete personal data that we hold about you, or restrict the way in which we use such personal data; withdraw consent to our processing of your personal data (to the extent such processing is based on previously obtained consent);
• receive a copy of the personal data concerning you, which you have provided to us, in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format and to transmit such personal data to another party (to the extent the processing is based on consent or a contract);
• ask us to stop or start sending you marketing messages at any time; and
• object to our processing of your personal data.

If you would like to access or see a copy of your personal data, you must ask us in writing. We will endeavour to respond within a reasonable period, and in any event within one month in line with Data Protection Legislation. We will comply with our legal obligations as regards your rights as a data subject.
