3. Failure to Provide Personal Data
We may need to collect personal information by law, or to enter into or fulfil a contract we have with you. Where we need to collect personal data by law, or under the terms of a contract we have with you, and you fail to provide that data when requested, it may delay or prevent us from fulfilling our contract with you or prevent us from entering into a contract with you (for example, to provide you with our services).
In this case, we may have to cancel a product or service you have with us, but we will notify you if this is the case at the time.
4. How we use your Personal Data
We will only use your personal data when the law allows us to. Most commonly, we will use your personal data in the following circumstances:

Detecting fraud. If we think there is a risk of fraud, we may stop activity we may refuse to continue doing business with you
5. For how Long will you Use my Personal Data?
We will only retain your personal data for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, regulatory, tax, accounting or reporting requirements. We may retain your personal data for a longer period in the event of a complaint or if we reasonably believe there is a prospect of litigation in respect to our relationship with you.
To determine the appropriate retention period for personal data, we consider the amount, nature and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure of your personal data, the purposes for which we process your personal data and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal, regulatory, tax, accounting or other requirements.

We seek to use reasonable physical, technical and administrative measures to protect Personal Data under our control. Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet or data storage system is 100% secure, and therefore we cannot guarantee against all potential security breaches.
