In some cases, we may have a legal duty to release information about you.  If we have to release personal information about you as part of the work that we are providing to you, we will only release what is reasonable and appropriate.  Please ask us if you are concerned about this.

We might also need to share personal information about you with companies or businesses that we control or are connected with us.  Almost all of our IT is managed by another organisation, which may process your information for us.  As a result, we may need to share or they may have access to personal information about you, so they can maintain our IT systems, such as our electronic filing system.  All these services are provided under a written contract with them to protect your details and to keep them confidential.
