Marketing
We strive to provide you with choices regarding certain personal data uses, particularly around marketing and advertising. We may use your Identity, Contact, Technical and Usage Data to form a view on what we think you may want or need, or what may be of interest to you. This is how we decide which products, services and offers may be relevant for you (we call this marketing).

We will get your express opt-in consent before we share your personal data with any third party for marketing purposes.
When Fivecast processes your order, it may send your data to, and also use the resulting information from, credit reference agencies to prevent fraudulent purchases.
