This type of information is provided directly by enquirers/customers, enabling us to provide services as requested. For example, to fulfil enquiries/quotes, contracts, orders, financial transactions, product/service deliveries and resolve complaints.

In addition, information is also provided directly by suppliers/partners, enabling us to fulfil commercial transactions as part of providing our services.
