When do we disclose your personal information?

Move4Love collects personal information to communicate with and deliver services to its clients and constituents.

Some basic personal information (name and contact details) may be passed on to a third party on an ad hoc basis as part of Move4Love’s networking and information sharing service to clients and constituents.

We treat all personal information we hold about you as confidential. This applies except where disclosure of your personal information is necessary to provide our primary services, where required to do so by law or where your consent has been provided.

On occasions we may employ other companies to perform functions on our behalf, such as printing of lists, name cards etc. In these instances we may disclose information to them for the purpose of carrying out these tasks. In these situations we ensure appropriate confidentiality procedures are in place to protect your privacy and provide third parties only with the information required to perform their function.
