-and necessary in the national interest, for any investigation or proceedings 


If you provide us with any Personal Data relating to a third party (e.g. addressee information from existing customers), by submitting such information to us, you represent to us that you have obtained the consent from the relevant party to provide us with their Personal Data for the respective purposes.


  1. 6. We may disclose your personal data:

    • - To our affiliated companies or any relevant parties, where such disclosure is required for performing obligations in the course of or in connection or with our provision of the goods or services requested by you; or

Such retention shall be subject to clauses 18 and 19 below.
