At the bottom of every mailing we send out, we offer you the opportunity to opt out of any future mailings of that type, or indeed, request to be completely removed from our contacts database. Please see the privacy wording at the end of each individual mailing for specific details.

Once a year we will send an email to all contacts on our contacts database giving the option to be removed from this database.
