In this Privacy Policy:
As part of our Services we connect customers and suppliers of quality food products. This inherently means that contact details of suppliers will be provided to customers under specific circumstances as confirmed and authorised by you or by accepting our terms and conditions of use during the registration process. As such, we engage with personal information in two capacities. First, as a primary collector if, for example, you subscribe to our Services by creating a user account, posting comments or reviews on our Website or otherwise visit our Website. Second, as a service provider to suppliers and customers using our Services who are the primary collector but where we may host this information on our website or disclose this information in the provision of the Services that we provide.
As a primary collector, we collect information from you to maintain your relationship with us. As a service provider, we have limited access to information that sits on our Website so that our suppliers and customers can use our Website and Services to engage with each other.

We may hire other companies to provide limited services on our behalf, such as handling the processing and delivery of mailings, providing customer support, processing payment transactions, or performing statistical analysis of our services. We will only provide those companies with the personal information they need to deliver the specific services and take reasonable steps to ensure that these companies maintain the confidentiality of your information and are prohibited from using that information except for the purposes for which it was supplied.
Foodbomb may also disclose your personal information to authorised regulatory bodies or otherwise if required to do so by law.
