17.3 This Privacy Policy is a compliance document prescribed by law rather than a legal contract between two or more persons. However, certain contracts may incorporate all, or part, of this Privacy Policy into the terms of that contract. In such instances, Addam Donor Bank may incorporate the terms of this policy such that:

(a) certain sections or paragraphs in this policy are incorporated into that contract, but in such a way that they do not give rise to contractual obligations on to Addam Donor Bank, but do create contractual obligations on the other party to the contract; and

(b) the consents provided in this policy become contractual terms provided by the other party to the contract.
