3.3.6 Where we propose to use your personal information for another purpose other than as outlined above, we will seek your express consent prior to using your personal information for that purpose (unless we are required or permitted by law to do so without seeking your permission).
3.4 Disclosing personal information

(a) our authorised agents, contractors or subcontractors that provide administrative or promotional services (for example, mail processing businesses, printers, or market research companies or other service providers) and other third parties. We enter into contractual agreements with these organisations to ensure that information we disclose is used only for the limited purposes for which we have provided it; and
(b) our related bodies corporate.
3.4.2 Where we propose to disclose your personal information for another purpose other than as outlined above, we will seek your express consent prior to disclosing your personal information for that purpose (unless we are required or permitted by law to do so without seeking your permission, for instance, when we are compelled to disclose personal information for certain law enforcement purposes).

4.1 You have the right to obtain access to any personal information we hold about you. You have the right to contact our Privacy Officer to request access to or correction of your personal information held by us (contact details for our Privacy Officer are set out in paragraph 9 of this Privacy Policy).

4.3 We may refuse to allow you to access or to correct your personal information if we are legally required or entitled to do so.

However, we may require you to pay a reasonable fee to cover the cost of verifying an application for access and locating, retrieving, reviewing and copying any material requested.

5. Dealing with us anonymously
5.1 You may transact with us anonymously or by using a pseudonym, wherever that is reasonable and practicable.
5.2 Transacting with us anonymously or by using a pseudonym may not be possible if we are required or authorised by law to transact with customers only once their identity has been verified, or where it is impracticable for us to transact with customers without verifying their identity (for instance, when transacting using a credit account, purchasing prescribed goods of which we are required to maintain records of purchases, or where a customer will contract with a third party).
