We request personal information (such as your name, e-mail address and other contact details) from you when you contact us with registered user management queries, technical problems, to comment on the British legal centre Testing resource, or when you ask for information about how to use the service. Personal information submitted by you via a “contact us” or Support programme will not be added to our customer database unless you have first indicated your permission for us to do thisStatistics regarding the types of queries submitted to us via a “contact us” or Support programme may be collated by us in aggregate form so that we can effectively monitor the site and improve levels of service.

We need to store information about current registered users and your use of the British Legal Centre Testing website in order to fulfil our contractual requirements to you and in order to deliver the British Legal Centre Testing resource to you.

You may notify us either in writing or by telephone, fax or e-mail that you object to being contacted in a particular stated way. If you use more than one e-mail address to communicate with us, please notify us of each e-mail account you use.

We will only keep personal information for so long as is required to provide useful information and services to you after which time we shall delete and destroy it.

When do we share information?

We do not sell your personal information to others.

We share your personal information within OUP. We will also share your personal information with third party suppliers for the purpose of enabling such suppliers' software that we use to support your use of the British Legal Centre Testing website.

The British Legal Centre Testing web site has been developed by and hosted by third parties but we have agreed with those third parties that they will keep your information secure and not use it for other purposes.

If we believe that your use of the web site is unlawful or damaging to others, we reserve the right to disclose the information we have obtained through the site about you to the extent that it is reasonably necessary in our opinion to prevent, remedy or take action in relation to such conduct.

Where schools have agreed to form a chain, the schools and their authorised users (teachers and students) should be aware that a school in the chain will have the right (for proper purposes related to the management of their English testing resources) to view, process and amend the personal data in OUP’s learning management system relating to authorised users belonging to its school and any schools lower down that chain of schools.
