<li><strong>What we may need from you</strong></li>
</ol>
<p>We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access any personal information (or to exercise any of your other rights).

To withdraw your consent, please contact our Data Protection Compliance Manager in writing using the contact details set out at the beginning of this privacy policy.</p>
<p>Where we are providing you with marketing information, you can also change your marketing preferences by using the unsubscribe button at the bottom of our marketing e-mails sent to you.</p>
<p>Once we have received notification that you have withdrawn your consent, we will no longer process your personal information for the purpose or purposes you originally agreed to, unless we have another legitimate basis for doing so.</p>
