When someone visits www.mk2.co.uk we use a third party service, Google Analytics to collect standard internet log information and details of visitor behaviour patterns.

When we electronically send marketing material or a newsletter we will often use a third-party provider, MailChimp, to deliver the email.

We may pass your information to our third party service providers, agents, subcontractors and other associated organisations for the purposes of completing tasks and providing services to you on our behalf (for example, to send investment sales brochures via email or post). However, when we use third party service providers, we disclose only the personal information that is necessary to deliver the service and we have a contract in place that requires them to keep your information secure and not to use it for their own direct marketing purposes. We would only release your information to a third party outside of this if required to do so legally, for example, to comply with a legal obligation or to enforce or apply our terms of use or to protect the rights, property or safety of our clients.
