As a member organisation we have obligations to ensure all our members receive certain information, including on governance matters.

Like4Like clients
If you are a current client of Like4Like, opting out of promotional emails will not stop all communication from us. By becoming a client of Like4Like, your firm is signing you up to receive certain information related to the organisation. It is a constitutional requirement for us to send this information to you.

Like4Like non- clients
If you are a non-client of the Like4Like, such as a commercial partner or someone who once attended an event, you can choose to opt-in or out of further contact with us.

We also receive non-client data through networking (e.g. business cards) and add these details, if relevant, onto our database. We also on occasion purchase 'opt-in' data (lists from reputable providers) for promotional campaigns.

Who has access to your information?
The Like4Like will not sell, share or lease the personal information we collect about you with any third parties unless we have your permission or are required by law to do so. We may use your personal information to send you promotional information about third parties which we think you may find interesting.

Security precautions in place to protect the loss, misuse, or alteration of your information
When you give us personal information, we take steps to ensure that it's treated securely on all our systems. In order to prevent unauthorised access or disclosure, we have put in place suitable physical, electronic and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect online.

Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password which enables you to access certain parts of the Like4Like website, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential. We ask you not to share your password with anyone.
