We do not sell personal data. Where third parties process personal data on our behalf, we seek to ensure that appropriate contractual, confidentiality and security obligations are in place.

9. International Transfers

Where personal data is transferred outside the European Economic Area or outside the jurisdiction in which it was collected, we will take steps to ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place, where required by applicable law. These safeguards may include adequacy decisions, standard contractual clauses or other lawful transfer mechanisms.

10. Data Retention

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, including for the purposes of satisfying legal, regulatory, tax, accounting, reporting or compliance obligations, resolving disputes, enforcing agreements and maintaining appropriate business records.

Retention periods may vary depending on the type of data and the purpose of processing. When personal data is no longer required, we will delete, anonymise or securely dispose of it, unless further retention is required or permitted by law.

11. Data Security

We take appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorised disclosure, unauthorised access and other unlawful forms of processing.

While we take data security seriously, no method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure. You share information with us at your own risk, but we take reasonable steps to protect it once received.
