If you wish to change how we use your data, please contacts us using the details at the end of this privacy policy.
We may, from time to time, run referral programmes or similar initiatives, such as a Tell a Friend and Awards programmes, that invite you to provide us with the contact details of someone who is known to you who may find our products or services to be of interest. This may also be the case when contacting interviewees to set up interviews or when contacting possible advertising clients for example. We will only use those contact details for the purpose of the relevant initiative (and not for general marketing purposes). By providing us with their details, you confirm that you have their permission to do so and must not provide us with the details of anyone from whom you do not have such permission.
