We collect or may collect the following kinds of information about users:

- Communications (by email or other means, which pass through the our systems) between yourself and Tricia Hood.
- Other personal information provided voluntarily by you. This could be in response to information required to provide you with a quote or information requested by you.
We use the information collected from you for the primary purpose for which it is collected, and for such other secondary purposes that are related to the primary purpose of collection, e.g. to advise you of ‘specials’, events or exhibitions. We generally use personal information to:
- Provide you with products or services you have requested.
