International transfers
We do not intentionally transfer your personal data outside of the European Economic Area. However, the internet is made up of many international connections. If you are visiting this site from a country other than the country in which our server is located, the various communications will necessarily result in the transfer of information across international boundaries. By visiting this website and communicating electronically with us, you consent to these transfers.
Keeping your data secure
We use all reasonable efforts to safeguard your personal data both electronically and in hard copy format. However, submitting your details through the internet cannot be guaranteed to be entirely secure and therefore you do so at your own risk.
We limit access to your personal data to those employees, agents, contractors and other third parties who have a business need to know. They will only process your personal data based on our instructions, and they are subject to a duty of confidentiality.
Also, we will only retain your personal data for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfil the purposes for which we collected it, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, regulatory, tax, accounting or reporting requirements. We may retain your personal data for a longer period in the event of a complaint or if we reasonably believe there is a prospect of litigation in respect to our relationship with you.
Our retention periods are reviewed on a regular basis.

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.

Your legal rights
To exercise any of your legal rights listed below, please contact us using the contact details found at the end of this policy.
You have the right to:
Request access to your personal data. This enables you to receive a copy of the personal data we hold about you and to check that we are lawfully processing it. This request will be carried out free of charge and within one month unless it is clearly unfounded, repetitive or excessive. In such instances we may require longer to process your request and a nominal fee may be charged to cover the costs of providing you with this information. In this instance we will notify you and keep you updated.
Request correction of the personal data that we hold about you. This enables you to have any incomplete or inaccurate data we hold about you corrected, although we may need to verify the accuracy of the new data you provide to us.
Request erasure of your personal data. This enables you to ask us to delete or remove personal data where there is no good reason for us continuing to process it. Such requests are subject to any applicable legal and ethical reporting or document retention obligations imposed on us.
Object to processing of your personal data where we are relying on a legitimate interest (or those of a third-party) and you want to object to processing as you feel it impacts on your fundamental rights and freedoms. You also have the right to object where we are processing your personal data for direct marketing purposes. In some cases, we may demonstrate that we have compelling legitimate grounds to process your information which override your rights and freedoms.
Request restriction of processing of your personal data. This enables you to ask us to suspend the processing of your personal data in the following scenarios:
- If you want us to establish the data’s accuracy.
- Where our use of the data is unlawful, but you do not want us to erase it.
- Where you need us to hold the data even if we no longer require it as you need it to establish, exercise or defend legal claims.
- You have objected to our use of your data, but we need to verify whether we have overriding legitimate grounds to use it.
Request the transfer of your personal data to you or to a third-party. We will provide to you, or a third-party you have chosen, your personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format. Note that this right only applies to automated information which you initially provided consent for us to use or where we used the information to perform a contract with you.
Withdraw consent at any time where we are relying on consent to process your personal data. However, this will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before you withdraw your consent. If you withdraw your consent, we may not be able to provide certain products or services to you. We will advise you if this is the case at the time you withdraw your consent.
