Subject to the qualifications immediately below, Franklin Covey will collect Your Data from you and not from other parties. This is qualified as follows:

• where Franklin Covey collects Your Data from sources other than you, it will do so by legal means, with your Consent, and to declare to you what sources it uses, and under what circumstances.

In these circumstances, Franklin Covey will take any reasonable steps available to it to communicate to You that the use has occurred, unless it is precluded from doing so by law; and such additional purposes as are authorized by law (in particular to protect Franklin Covey’s interests, e.g. if it believes on reasonable grounds that You have failed to fulfill your obligations to Franklin Covey or have committed a breach of the criminal law).

Franklin Covey will use Your Data only if it has demonstrable relevance to the particular use to which it is being put.

Franklin Covey undertakes to use Your Data in such a manner as to take into account the possibility that it is not of sufficient quality for the purpose, e.g. because it is inaccurate, out-of-date, incomplete, or out-of-context.
