We know that there's a lot of information here, but we want you to be fully informed about your rights, and how Infinity Intellectuals uses your data. We hope the following sections will answer any questions you have but if not, please do get in touch with us. It's very likely that we will need to update this privacy policy.

Data protection law states there are several legal reasons why a company may collect and process personal data. Infinity Intellectuals work on the following bases for certain situations: Contract - We will process your personal data to fulfill an order, deliver a service, and essentially comply with our contractual obligations. An example might be, if you order a service for email delivery, we'll collect your email address to deliver your purchase or pass them to the delivery company. Legal Compliance - If the law or government requires us to, we may need to collect and process your data. An example might be passing on details of fraud to law enforcement. Legitimate Interest - In cases, we required personal data to pursue our legitimate interests in a way that might reasonably be expected as part of running our business. This does not impact your freedom or rights. Examples might be using postal or email details to send direct marketing information by post telling you about products and services that we think might interest you. We may also use your purchase history to send you or make available personalized offers.

• ☛ When you visit any of our websites or speak to an account manager on the phone.
• ☛ When you create a credit account with us.
• ☛ When you purchase a product or service by phone but don't have (or don't use) an account.

• ☛ When you've given a third party permission to share with us the information they hold about you.
• ☛ We may collect data from publicly-available sources (such as Land Registry), Websites, Tradeshows, Events, Papers, Magazines, Blogs etc. when you have given your consent to share information or where the information is made public as a matter of law.

• ☛ Your social media username, if you interact with us through those channels, to help us respond to your comments, questions or feedback.

We want to give you the best possible customer experience. One way to achieve that is to get the richest picture we can of who you are by combining the data we have about you. We then use this to offer you promotions, products and services that are most likely to interest you. The data privacy law allows this as part of our legitimate interest in understanding our customers and providing the highest levels of service. Of course, if you wish to change how we use your data, you'll find details in the 'What are my rights?' which can be found in section 8. Remember, if you choose not to share your personal data with us, or refuse certain contact permissions, we might not be able to provide some services you've asked for. Here's how we'll use your personal data and why:

• ☛ To process any orders that you make by using our sales team. If we don't collect your personal data during ordering, we won't be able to process your order and comply with our legal obligations. An example may be that your details are passed to a third party so they can deliver your purchased product or service that you ordered. We would then keep those details for a reasonable period afterwards in order to fulfill obligations such as refunds, guarantees etc.
• ☛ To respond to your queries, refund requests and complaints. Handling the information you sent enables us to respond. We may also keep a record of these to inform any future communication with us and to demonstrate how we communicated with you throughout. We do this on the basis of our contractual obligations to you, our legal obligations and our legitimate interests in providing you with the best service and understanding how we can improve our service based on your experience.
