We may pass your information to our third party service providers, agents, subcontractors and other associated organisations for the purposes of completing tasks and providing services to you on our behalf.  However, when we use third party service providers, we disclose only the personal information that is necessary to deliver the service and we have a contract in place that requires them to keep your information secure and not to use it for their own direct marketing purposes. Please be reassured that we will not release your information to third parties beyond HINCHLIFFE TRANSPORT SERVICES LIMITED for them to use for their own direct marketing purposes, unless you have requested us to do so, or we are required to do so by law, for example, by a court order or for the purposes of prevention of fraud or other crime. In these cases we will take steps to ensure that your privacy rights continue to be protected.

In some cases third party agencies may be acting as a data controller for your information, we would therefore advise you to read their Privacy Policy.
