We only collect and process this Data on the basis that you consent to us doing so – which is entirely up to you.

If you have sent us an enquiry via the ‘Contact Us’ page of our Site or if you have emailed us an enquiry, we will only process your Data for the purposes of dealing with this enquiry. Where we receive an enquiry from you and we consider based on the Data you have provided that you are a potential partner or customer who is likely to reasonably expect the Processing of your Data in a business context (and such Processing is less likely to have a significant impact on you personally), then we may add your contact details to our business contacts’ database in order to send email communications to you about LiveScore’s products, services, news, and offers in accordance with our Legitimate Interests. You can opt out of receiving such email communications at any time using the ‘Unsubscribe’ link included in every email or by contacting us at DPO@livescore.com. You may still receive service emails, for example to notify you about changes to our Site, to the extent we are required to send these to you in accordance with our Legitimate Interests. You will not be sent any unlawful marketing or spam.

If you have uploaded your details on our ‘Careers’ page and applied for an advertised job, we will only use the details you have provided for the purposes of processing your job application between the internal teams of the relevant LiveScore Parties and for contacting you about the progress of your job application. We will not send you any marketing communications.

We will not share any of your Data with any other organization or third parties for any purposes other than storage on an email and/or web hosting server.

We will not transfer your Data outside the United Kingdom or European Economic Area. This means that your Data will be fully protected in accordance with the Data Protection Legislation.

How will we store your Data and for how long?

Your Data will only be kept for as long as is necessary to fulfill the purposes for which we collected it, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal requirements. Where it is no longer necessary to Process your Data, we will delete it or anonymize it by removing all details that identify you in accordance with Data Protection Legislation.

The length of time for which we retain your Data will depend on what we are using it for as set out in this Policy. For example, we will keep your email address while dealing with your enquiries but, even when you unsubscribe, we are required to continue to retain your email address to ensure that we do not send you any email communications in the future. Where you have provided your Data for recruitment purposes, we will retain it for as long as is necessary to comply with our employment law obligations. Please note, however, that we may be subject to legal and regulatory requirements to keep your Data for a longer period.
