• Provide you with marketing information about products and services that are listed in the Privacy notice on Data Contributor’s websites.

You can withdraw consent with ease at any time, by emailing removeme@permissionmedia.co.uk  with your request to be removed. Please include your First Name, Last Name, Mobile or Email Address and Post Code so we can quickly identify you and remove your information from the database.

More useful information to manage your marketing preferences below:

• Postal Marketing– You can opt out of postal marketing by registering with the Mail Preference Service (MPS) at http://www.mpsonline.org.uk This is an industry wide service that is administered by the Direct Marketing Association and recognised by the Information Commissioner.
• Telephone Marketing– You can opt out of all telemarketing activity by registering their details with the Telephone Preference Service (TPS) at http://www.tpsonline.org.uk. The TPS is similar to the MPS but is administered by the Information Commissioner.
• Email Marketing– Unlike Postal or Telephone channels, there is no industry-wide service to opt out of email marketing. Therefore, consumers should always review privacy policies and marketing opt-in check boxes when registering for services or purchasing products online. Where unwanted email marketing is received, consumers should unsubscribe or use spam filters to prevent future communications.
• Online Advertising– Marketing data is widely used to inform the advertising that is displayed when browsing online. Whilst digital marketers generally do not know the identity of the individual viewing a page, they are able to understand their likely characteristics based on their browsing behaviour or location in order to display a more relevant advert. If you would prefer not to receive targeted advertising in this way, there are a number of options available.

You must make a Subject Access Request (SAR) to access information that we hold about you.

In order for us to process your request it is our responsibility to identify you and be satisfied that you are the individual whom the data relates to. You cannot make a SAR on behalf of someone else unless you have the required written authority or demonstrable Power of Attorney.
