It also includes information or opinions that are inferred about people such as tastes and preferences inferred from online purchases and browsing behaviour.

Morris Group collects and holds your personal information to allow it to perform its business functions. We will only collect personal information if it is for a lawful purpose that is directly related to one of our functions and it is reasonably necessary for us to have the information. The types of personal information we collect will depend on the nature of your dealings with us and may include:

We do not collect any sensitive information about you (such as health or biometric information) unless you have provided your consent or certain limited permitted situations exist.

If you can’t, or won’t, provide us with the personal information we reasonably require, we may be unable to provide you with the information, goods or services you have requested.

We try to collect personal information directly from you. That collection generally occurs when you:

• Purchase products via our websites or appsaccess or request information via our websites or apps
• Provide information to our customer service call centre, website, apps or social media platforms

From time to time, we may also collect personal information about you from third parties to help us improve our services and provide personalised services to you. For example, we may collect personal information from:

• Third parties which provide services on our behalf, such as table ordering software platforms used in our hospitality venues
• Our trusted partners, such as to confirm a membership if you participate in a business rewards program in which we participate
• Financial services organisations for fraud and loss prevention activities

We primarily use your personal information to supply, sell, market and promote goods or services that you have requested from us (or that we think may be of interest to you), to help us improve our goods and services, and to personalise your experiences with us. This includes, for example:

• Informing you of upcoming events, special promotions, offers, discounts and other matters across our range of brands that we think may be of interest to you
• Conducting research (such as client surveys) concerning our current and future products or services
• administering, reviewing and optimising the performance of our distribution network (including allocating customers to distributors) and improving the effectiveness of any software used by the distribution network

• Analysing your interactions with our websites, social media pages and mobile applications to identify your preferences, personalise your experience with us, provide targeted advertising and help improve our goods and services
• Measuring the impact of our marketing activities and generating insights to help us improve our goods and services
• We may also use your personal information for other purposes that are related to those listed above and are within your reasonable expectation or are otherwise required or permitted by law. These purposes will be made clear to you at the time we collect your personal information.

We may use your personal information to send you direct marketing (including via email, SMS, phone, social media, online or mail) if you agree to let us do so and you have not opted out. All commercial electronic correspondence sent to you by us will give you the opportunity to “opt out” of receiving any further direct marketing correspondence. For online advertising, you can opt-out by adjusting your device settings.From time to time we may need to share your personal information with our digital advertising agencies and other third parties to enable us to provide online marketing materials to you.If we use your personal information to send you any direct marketing communications, you have the right to request that we provide you with the source of that personal information.There is no fee for requesting this information.

We may also disclose your personal information to other third parties where it is required or permitted under any applicable law.

We use cookies, tags, beacons and similar tracking technologies (collectively cookies) to collect electronic information about you when you interact with us online.

A cookie is a small file downloaded onto your device’s browser. Some cookies are deleted once you close your browser (session cookies) but other cookies are retained even after you close your browser so you can be recognised when you return to a website (permanent cookies).

The main reasons we use cookies, and allow certain third parties to place cookies on our websites, are to:

• Deliver our websites and online content to you
• Provide personalised services and targeted advertising to you
• Enhance our website functionality and improve your browsing experience
• Measure the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns
• Improve our products and services

The main types of cookies that we use are explained below:

• Essential website cookies: these cookies are strictly necessary for core website functionality. If they are blocked or disabled, you may not be able to access our websites.
• Preference & functionality cookies: these cookies collect information about your choices and preferences. We use them to enhance the functionality of our websites. Without these cookies some functionality (such as product recommendations) may become unavailable.
• Analytics cookies: these cookies are used to track how you navigate and interact with our websites. They help us identify which pages are the most and least popular and how you move around our websites. We also use them to understand how effective our marketing campaigns are.
• Advertising cookies: these cookies are used so that we can deliver targeted and personalised advertising to you. They also help prevent the same ad from continuously reappearing in your online feed. If you block these cookies, you will experience less targeted advertising.
• Social media cookies: these cookies are used to allow you to share our content with your friends and networks via social media networking sites. If you do not allow these cookies you may not be able to use or see these sharing tools.

We may aggregate electronic information obtained via cookies with personal information collected via other sources, including offline sources, for the purpose of improving our records and delivering targeted direct marketing to you.

We may also collect electronic information from cookies set by third parties such as social media platforms and Google. That information is collected directly from those third party providers and is subject to their privacy policies and notices.

If you do not want websites to store cookies on your device, most browsers allow you to disable cookies via the privacy settings menu within your browser.

In some cases, you can also change website settings to disable cookies and opt-out of targeted advertising. For example, you can opt-out of targeted advertising on Facebook, Google, X (formerly Twitter) or Instagram by looking under its account settings.

We take reasonable steps to ensure personal information we hold about you is protected from risks such as misuse, interference, loss and unauthorised access, use, destruction, modification or disclosure.

Some of the security measures we routinely use include:

• Using electronic security systems to control access to systems as well as monitor and alert on unusual or suspicious activity on our network or websites
• Encryption of data at rest and in transit, where reasonable to do so
• Operating data loss prevention systems to monitor and alert on activities on electronic systems such as email that may contain personal information
• Undertaking periodic data security and privacy training for employees
• Ensuring electronic systems that may have contained personal data are sanitised and disposed of securely
• No data transmission over the internet is totally secure. As a result, any personal information you send to us over the Internet (including via email) is sent at your own risk.

You have a right to ask for access to the personal information that we hold about you, and ask that we correct that personal information.

Before we provide you with access to your personal information, we may require verification of or proof of your identity. In limited circumstances, we may deny a request for access (for example where giving access would be unlawful). If that happens, we will always provide you with written reasons for that denial.

There is no fee for requesting access, however we may charge a reasonable fee for the preparation and provision of that information to you.
