We collect and use your information in the following situations:

  • where our use of your information is for the purposes of our legitimate interests and we have made sure that your information, and your rights in relation to that information, are protected. For example, we may rely on this legal basis if we and use your information to understand and improve our products or services, to help find out what information, products and services are most likely to interest you, to send or show you information and offers, to ensure that the Programme and its related services are delivered and used in accordance with the law and the terms and conditions that apply to them;
