AJ may amend this privacy policy from time to time to reflect changes in the law or our privacy practices. If we make any substantial changes in the way we use your personal information we will notify you by email, telephone, in person or via visiting one of our websites.
5. What personal information is collected?
AJ is unable to provide you with our products and services if you do not provide certain information to us, therefore we collect the following information from you when you request a quotation and later become one of our customers: name, address, email, phone numbers (landline and mobile).
Or when you provide us with a credit account and become one of our suppliers: name, address, email, telephone numbers (landline and mobile), and bank details.

AJ uses your personal information to fulfil your requests for products and services, to pay invoices you have provided us with, and to maintain your details. This will be to achieve a smooth working relationship between us.
7. How is the information shared or disclosed?
AJ will not sell or rent your personal information to anyone. However, we will send your personal information to specific third parties in order to fulfil our obligations to you. For example, if we need to send your details to a recognised training body who provide certification.
8. How is the information kept safe?
We have appropriate security measures in place to prevent personal information from being accidentally lost or used or accessed in an unauthorised way. We limit access to your personal information to those who have a genuine business need to know it. Those processing your information will do so only in an authorised manner and are subject to a duty of confidentiality.
We also have procedures in place to deal with any suspected data security breach. We will notify you and any applicable regulator of a suspected data security breach where we are legally required to do so.
You are responsible for your contact information to us and you should notify us immediately of any unauthorised use of your emails, for example.
