WHY DO WE COLLECT YOUR INFORMATION?
Collecting your data, allows us to understand what your needs and wants are, provide personalized content and match the most relevant adverts and services for you. It also allows us to provide targeted offers and services you may be interested to hear about.
CONSENT
By completing our registration forms with personal information or by the continued use of our services, you are consenting to:
- a) our processing your personal data for the above purposes; and
- b) the transfer and processing of your information in countries outside India that may not provide the same level of data protection as India. This site is accessible via the internet and so may potentially be accessed by anyone around the world. Other users may access the site from outside India. This means that, where you choose to post your data on the site, this could be accessed from anywhere around the world and therefore a transfer of your data outside of India may be deemed to have occurred. You consent to such transfer of your data for and by way of this purpose. Where we or our contractors transfer data outside India this is only ever done with the relevant protections required by law in place.
MARKETING POLICY

We will work with other companies for promotional purposes where readers may be asked to opt-in for future contact from that specific partner. With your permission, we will transfer that customer data to the third party at which point it will fall under their own privacy and security controls. Miami Lifestyle Awards or Vgosh Media cannot be held liable for subsequent issues arising from third-party usage of transferred data.

PAYMENT AND CREDIT CHECKS
Customer data will be used to take payment for products and services and may be used to verify credit details related to this payment. Permission to do so is implicit in providing financial details to process payment. Direct Debit information may be retained for ease of renewal of services.
