Where we store your personal data

The data that is processed by us as a result of your use of our Services will not be transferred outside the European Economic Area ("EEA").

The data that we collect from you via the website may be transferred to, and stored at, a destination outside the EEA. It may also be processed by staff operating outside the EEA who work for us or for one of our suppliers for example of e -mail marketing services. By submitting your personal data, you agree to this transfer, storing or processing.

Whenever we transfer your personal data out of the EEA, we ensure a similar degree of protection is afforded to it by ensuring at least one of the following safeguards is implemented:

  • We will only transfer your personal data to countries that have been deemed to provide an adequate level of protection for personal data by the European Commission. For further details, see European Commission: Adequacy of the protection of personal data in non-EU countries
  • Where we use certain service providers, we may use specific contracts approved by the European Commission which give personal data the same protection it has in Europe. 6 For further details, see European Commission: Model contracts for the transfer of personal data to third countries.
  • Where we use providers based in the US, we may transfer data to them if they are part of the Privacy Shield which requires them to provide similar protection to personal data shared between the Europe and the US. For further details, see European Commission: EU-US Privacy Shield.

If you want further information on the specific mechanism used by us when transferring your personal data out of the EEA. Please contact us.

All information you provide to us is stored on our secure servers. All messages sent using our service are encrypted. Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password which enables you to access certain parts of our site, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential. We ask you not to share a password with anyone.

The transmission of information via the internet is never completely secure. Although we will do our best to protect your personal data, we cannot 100% 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 ‘best -in-class’ procedures and technologically up -to-date security features to prevent unauthorised access.

Retaining your data

We will only retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.

To determine the appropriate retention period for personal data, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure of your personal data, the purposes for which we process your personal data and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements.

If you ask us to delete your data then we may not be able to provide you with all of the services offered from this website.
