The third parties that we may collect information from include credit reporting agencies.
From time to time, we may utilize the services of third parties (including other members of the ICL corporate group) in our business and may also receive personal information collected by those third parties in the course of the performance of the services for us or otherwise.

Purpose of Collection
The personal information that we collect and hold about you, depends on your interaction with us. However, we only collect and retain personal information when authorized by law, such as when you have provided consent; it is necessary for the performance of a contract or in order to take measures prior to entering into a contract; it is necessary for our compliance with a legal obligation; it is necessary for the purposes of our legitimate interests; or it is necessary to answer your requests. Generally, we collect, use and hold your personal information if it is reasonably necessary for or directly related other performance of our legitimate interests, functions, and activities, such as for the following:

Personal information will generally be collected directly from you through the use of any of our standard forms, over the internet, via e-mail, or through a telephone conversation with you. There may, however, be some instances where personal information about you will be collected indirectly because it is unreasonable or impractical to collect personal information directly from you. Generally, we will notify you about these instances in advance, or where that is not possible, as soon as reasonably practicable after the information has been collected.
