HOW WE USE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

We use personal information in order to fulfil the requests of customers and members for our services. For example, we require your name, email address, billing and shipping addresses, usernames and passwords in order to make you a member, send you the volumes you purchase and grant you online access to our archives. Additionally, we require personal information like details of your course and university, contact details for your referees and written references in order to process applications for subsidies, grants and bursaries. If you do not provide that personal information we will not be able to process your request, application or order.

We also use personal information in order to pursue our legitimate interests, for example in letting you know (through our mailing list) about our talks, podcasts, conferences and products.

You have the right to withdraw that consent at any time. You can also update your personal information at any time. If you wish to do either, contact us at mail@aristotelianscociety.org.uk.

We do not sell your personal information to third parties. We may share your details with our publishers in order to fulfil requests for volumes of our journals. Our current publisher is Oxford University Press and any data which we share with them will be handled according to their privacy policy, which can be found here: https://global.oup.com/privacy?cc=gb
