Disclosures and transfers of personal information

Subject to the “Hyperlinks and embedded functionality” section below, EP UK Investments does not sell or otherwise release your personal information to third parties to allow them to direct market their products and services to you.

We reserve the right to disclose your personal information as required by law, or when we believe that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights and/or comply with a judicial proceeding, court order, request from a regulator or any other legal process served on EP UK Investments or the EPH Group. In the event that EP UK Investments or any company in the EPH Group is subject to a takeover, divestment or acquisition we may disclose your personal information to the new owner of the business.
