We process your information to provide, improve, and administer our services, communicate with you, to arrange payment for our services, for security and fraud prevention, and to comply with the law. We may also process your information for other purposes with your consent.

Technical data that is automatically collected may be used by us to analyse how the website is being found and used, and to evaluate the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns. It is not used by us to build a personal profile.

3. HOW DO THIRD PARTIES PROCESS YOUR INFORMATION?

We do not use automatically collected visitor data to build a personal profile on you or identify you personally.

4. WHAT LEGAL BASES DO WE RELY ON TO PROCESS YOUR INFORMATION?

The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and UK GDPR require us to explain the valid legal bases we rely on in order to process your personal information. As such, we will always rely on one of the following legal bases to collect and process your personal information:

Consent. We may process your information if you have given us permission (i.e. consent) to use your personal information for a specific purpose. You can withdraw your consent at any time.

Performance of a contract. We may process your personal information when we believe it is necessary to fulfil our contractual obligations to you, including providing our services or at your request prior to entering into a contract with you.

Legitimate interests. We may process your information when we believe it is reasonably necessary to achieve our legitimate business interests and those interests do not outweigh your interests and fundamental rights and freedoms. For example, we may process your personal information for some of the purposes described in order to:

Legal obligations. We may process your information where we believe it is necessary for compliance with our legal obligations, such as to comply with tax and accounting requirements, cooperate with a law enforcement body or regulatory agency, exercise or defend our legal rights, or disclose your information as evidence in litigation in which we are involved.

Vital interests. We may process your information where we believe it is necessary to protect your vital interests or the vital interests of a third party, such as situations involving potential threats to the safety of any person.

5. WHEN AND WITH WHOM DO WE SHARE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION?

We may share your data with third-party vendors, service providers, contractors, or agents ('third parties') who perform services for us or on our behalf and require access to such information to do that work. We have contracts in place with our third parties, which are designed to help safeguard your personal information. They commit to protect the data they hold on our behalf.

6. DO WE USE COOKIES AND OTHER TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES?

A cookie is a small file that might be placed on a computer or similar device when you visit or interact with a website. We may use cookies and similar tracking technologies (like web beacons and pixels) to access or store information about visitors to our website.

In some limited circumstances, we may use Google reCAPTHCA to help us detect fraudulent activity. You'll be required to check an 'I'm not a robot' checkbox and possibly complete a picture challenge. Google reCAPTCHA uses an essential '_GRECAPTCHA' cookie. Further information is available in Google's privacy policy.

Most web browsers are set to accept cookies by default. If you prefer, you can usually choose to set your browser to reject cookies or install a browser extension to reject cookies. Your browser will also have a tool to remove cookies that have already been set. If you choose to remove cookies or reject cookies, this could affect the functionality of parts of our website.

7. HOW LONG DO WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION?

We will only keep your personal information for as long as it is necessary for the purposes set out in this privacy notice, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law (such as tax, accounting, or other legal requirements).

When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will either delete or anonymise such information, or, if this is not possible (for example, because your personal information has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your personal information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.

8. IS THE INFORMATION ACCURATE AND UP TO DATE?

We are legally obliged to ensure that the information we have on record is accurate and up to date. If your details have changed since we were last in touch with you, you are kindly requested to notify us of the new details so we can update our records.

9. HOW DO WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION SAFE?

We have implemented appropriate and reasonable technical and organisational security measures to protect the security of any personal information we process. However, despite our safeguards and efforts to secure your information, no electronic transmission over the Internet or information storage technology can be guaranteed to be 100% secure, so we cannot promise or guarantee that hackers, cybercriminals, or other unauthorised third parties will not be able to defeat our security and improperly collect, access, steal, or modify your information. Although we will do our best to protect your personal information, transmission of personal information to and from our services is at your own risk. You should only access the services within a secure environment.
