Third Party Service Providers working on our behalf.
We may pass your information to our third party service providers, agents subcontractors and other associated organisations for the purposes of completing tasks and providing services to you on our behalf (for example to send you mailings). However, when we use third party service providers, we disclose only the personal information that is necessary to deliver the service, and we have a contract in place that requires them to keep your information secure and to not use it for their own direct marketing purposes.
Third Party Product Providers we work in association with:
We work closely with various third party product providers to bring you a range of quality and reliable products and services designed to meet the needs of leisure vehicle owners. When you enquire about or purchase one or more of these products, the relevant third party product provider will use your details to provide you with information and to carry out their obligations arising from any contracts you have entered into with them. In some cases, they will be acting as a data controller of your information and therefore we advise you to read their Privacy Policy. These third party product providers will share your information with us which we will use in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
We may transfer your personal information to a third party as part of a sale of some or all of our business and assets to any third party, or as part of any business restructuring or reorganisation, or if we’re under a duty to disclose or share your personal data in order to comply with any legal obligation or to enforce or apply our terms of use or to protect the rights, property or safety of our supporters and customers. However, we will take steps with the aim of ensuring that your privacy rights continue to be protected.

How to access and update your information

You have the right to ask for a copy of the information Swift Group holds about you - we may charge £10 for information requests to cover our costs in providing you with details of the information we hold about you.
Security precautions are in place to protect the loss, misuse or alteration of your information. When you give us personal information, we take steps to ensure that it's treated securely. Non-sensitive details (e.g. your email address) are transmitted normally over the internet, and this can never be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of any information you transmit to us, and you do so at your own risk. Once we receive your information, we make our best effort to ensure its security on our systems. Where we have given (or where you have chosen) a password which enables you to access certain parts of our websites, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential. We ask you not to share your password with anyone.
