We use your information in a number of different ways – what we do depends on the information.

Your name and contact information

Send information via e-mail, SMS or post, about our new products and services. To keep you updated. We only send this with your permission.

Stopping marketing messages does not stop service communication (for example, order updates or where you have expressed an interest in an activity at Weststream).

We retain your information for as long as you allow us, or as long as it is needed to provide the services to you, or (in case of any contacts you may have with our support team) for as long as necessary to provide only support-related reporting and trend analysis .

If it is reasonably necessary or mandatory to comply with laws or regulations, resolve disputes, prevent fraud and abuse, or apply our terms, we may also retain some of your information as needed.

However, we share your information with the following categories of companies as an important part of being able to provide our services to you, as stated in this statement:

• Companies that do things to get your purchases to you, such as payment providers, warehouses, parcel services and delivery companies.
• Professional service providers, such as web hosts who help us run our business
• Credit reference agencies, law enforcement agencies and law enforcement agencies, so we can help deal with fraud.
