We will only share your information with people who have the right to see it.

6 Other Products and Services

From time to time we would like to tell you about our other products and services and those arranged by us with other suppliers such as insurance companies.

Any personal information you provide in the process of enquiring/ arranging any of our other products and services is provided in the strictest confidence. We will only use this for the purposes specified in your enquiry and we will never pass your personal details to these third parties or any other companies for any other reason.

If you have already provided your consent, we will continue to rely on this permission until you request us to stop sending you information.

7 Information We Share

enforce applicable Terms of Service, including investigation of potential violations;
detect, prevent, or otherwise address fraud;
protect against harm to the rights, property or safety of MH, our users or the public as required or permitted by law.
