We take your privacy seriously and want you to understand our practices with respect to the handling of your personal data. This privacy statement explains how we do this.
 

 

When we collect your personal data 

If you decide to contact us or submit information to us e.g. by filling in a request form, you agree that we may process that information for the stated (or other reasonably foreseeable) purposes. Submission of this information is completely voluntary, and we process it in pursuit of our legitimate interest to provide a good customer service to our site visitors.


If any form which collects your personal data allows you to voluntarily provide additional information, we seek this information because we think it will help us to give you a better-quality service. You do not have to provide such information if you do not wish to do so.


We also collect personal data from cookies, which we explain more about below.

Why do we share your personal data and where does it go?

Any transfer of personal data to this site will be secured by encryption. As an international company, we may store or transfer your personal information to other BP companies around the world. Where this is the case, we do this under a comprehensive, flexible, and global compliance framework which implements appropriate measures and safeguards (including EU standard contractual clauses) to ensure that your personal information is protected in accordance with applicable data protection laws.


We may also use the services of third-party service providers for services such as hosting our webcasts and offering technical support.  Any third-party provider we appoint must act in accordance with our written instructions when processing your personal data and must protect your personal data in line with the contractually required security measures. Where we store or transfer your personal data to a third-party provider based outside the European Economic Area, we take steps to ensure your personal data is adequately protected.


We have the right to disclose your personal data as required by law, or when we believe that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights and/or comply with a judicial proceeding, court order, request from a regulator or any other legal process served on BP. If there is a takeover, sale or purchase of our business, we may disclose your personal data to the new (or prospective) owner of the business.


 

How long do we keep your information?

We will only hold your information for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, before making it non-identifiable or deleting it. 


We will delete or de-identify any queries we receive once it has been finally satisfied.
