>Some of the data that you provide us will fall within what data protection law describes as ‘sensitive’, or ‘special categories of personal data’, such as your racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious beliefs or information concerning your health or sexual orientation. For example, we may ask you about your voting history or intention, or whether you regard yourself as belonging to a particular religion. We use this information in the same way we use all the other information we collect, but the law requires that we have your explicit consent to collect and use it.</p> <p>Each time we ask questions that fall into one of these categories, if you haven’t consented to our use of data in that category we’ll remind you that we need it.
