of assessing your application to become a Model

other companies to look after your information we
ask them to make sure they keep your information

ask them to make sure they keep your information
safe and that they comply with relevant laws.

not have provisions in law which protect Sensitive
Personal Data. Every effort will be made to ensure
that your data is processed solely for the
evaluation of your application a casting in

not identified such as how many people have clicked
on their advertisements, what age range those people
are and whether they are male or female. This may
also include information about your particular
interests, however they will never know who you
are. What we do is show you the advertisements of
advertisers you might be most interested in bearing
in mind what we know about you from your
registration information and personal preferences.

information to the advertiser themselves so they
will never know about you.

laws and to operate our systems properly or to
protect ourselves or our users.
