- to do so only by legal means;
- to do so only with your Consent; and
- to declare to you what sources it uses, and under what circumstances.
This information is recorded and used by individuals to identify themselves.
When an individual uses various services provided by WLPC this may involve personal details but under the full control and permission of the individual themselves.

WLPC will not adopt any other organisation’s identifying numbers for user identification.

Disclosure of personal information by WLPC
WLPC takes great care with practices that affect personal privacy. WLPC implements reasonable security measures to protect the personal information of users and prevent the use or disclosure of personal information without the consent of the individual.
WLPC will not disclose information that identifies an individual, or enables an individual to be identified, with the exception that WLPC may release information about users that it is required by law to disclose and may release information about users that it is permitted by law to disclose and for which a substantial justification exists.
Storing personal information
All stored user information is protected from unauthorised access through the use of secure second factor techniques.
WLPC stores user information only in jurisdictions where data protections are at least equivalent to those required under the OECD Guidelines.
Data security
All personal data is protected by reasonable security measures and will remain active on the WLPC. The security of personal information is sufficient to prevent misuse and loss, unauthorised access, modification or disclosure of personal information. WLPC maintains a high level of data security by implementing:
- physical security to prevent unauthorised entry to our premises, by installing systems to detect unauthorised access and secure containers for storing paper-based personal information
- computer and network security to protect computer systems and networks for storing processing and transmitting personal information
- communications security to protect communications via data transmission and prevent unauthorised intrusion into our computer network
- personnel security, through our procedural and personnel measures for limiting access to personal information by authorised staff for approved purposes and controls to minimise security risks
Disposal of information
Users may instruct WLPC to delete their personal information held by WLPC at any time, and WLPC will do so, except in those cases where it is required by law to maintain a record, or it is permitted by law to maintain a record and a substantial justification exists to do so.
Subject to the qualifications immediately below, WLPC undertakes:
- to retain Information about you only as long as is consistent with its purpose; and
- to destroy Information about you when its purpose has expired, and to do so in such a manner that Information about you is not subsequently capable of being recovered.
This undertaking is qualified as follows:
- Information about you may be retained in WLPC’s logs, backups and audit trails within short-term retention cycles that are devised to protect the company’s operations. In such cases, Information about you will be destroyed in accordance with those cycles;
- Information about you may be retained beyond the expiry of its purpose if that is required by law, such as a provision of a statute, or a court order such as a search warrant or sub poena, or a warning by a law enforcement agency that delivery of a court order is imminent. In these circumstances, WLPC:
- will take any reasonable steps available to it to communicate to You that Information about you is being retained, unless it is precluded from doing so by law; and
- will only retain Information about you while that provision is current, and will then destroy Your Data;
- Information about you may be retained beyond the expiry of its purpose if it is authorised by law (in particular to protect WLPC’s interests, e.g. if it believes on reasonable grounds that You have failed to fulfil your undertakings to WLPC or have committed a breach of the criminal law). In these circumstances, WLPC will only retain Information about you while that situation is current, and will then destroy Your Data.
