Sharing your information within our company and group

We share the information that you provide to us with our staff so that we can run our website and provide our services to you. We may share the information that you provide to us with other websites that we operate.

We will only store your personal information for as long as we need it for the purposes for which it was collected. Where we provide you with any service, we will retain any information you provide to us at least for as long as we continue to provide that service to you.

If we rely on your consent to use your personal data, such as in connection with marketing or advertising, we may keep your personal data until you withdraw your consent.

In all other circumstances, we will keep your information for a reasonable amount of time. This period of time will be dictated by the nature of the data and how it relates to offering you the best service we can.

How do we protect your personal information?

We will take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that your data is treated securely and in accordance with this policy.

We try to ensure that all information you provide to us is transferred securely via the website (always check for the padlock symbol and "https" at the beginning of the URL). Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure. Although we will do our best to protect your personal data, we cannot guarantee the security of your data transmitted to our site; any transmission is at your own risk. Once we have received your information, we will use strict procedures and security features to try to prevent unauthorized access.

All information you provide to us is stored on third party secure servers hosted with the Google Cloud Platform, which is owned by Google LLC.

What rights do you have in respect of your personal information?

You have the right to be forgotten/Have your personal information deleted

If you believe any of these situations apply, please Contact Us.

You have rights related to automated decision-making and profiling

This profile is not linked to your name or other personal details, but to a unique ID that each website gives your browser.

You have the right not to be subject to decisions which will have a legal effect upon you or otherwise significantly affect you based on automated decision making.

If you have any concerns or questions about this right, please Contact Us.
