User information is retained for in-house research to:

  • improve our understanding of customer needs and product development

  • aid strategic development 
  • manage our relationship with advertisers

All results of such research and analysis will be anonymised or aggregated information and will not reveal any personal facts about individual customers.

Steps have been taken at MCL to ensure that consistently high standards of data protection are adhered for all the forms of processing mentioned above. Your data record will be held with MCL News and Media for maximum of 7 years.


Communication with clients

MCL will contact subscribers with information relating to their subscription using a variety of media.
