If we do, we will make use of standard contractual clauses which have been approved by the European Commission or we may adopt other means to ensure that adequate safeguards are applied to your personal information (e.g. Privacy Shield, Binding Corporate Rules, etc). You may obtain a copy of the documents we use to protect your Information when it is transferred outside the EEA by contacting us via email at the address set out below.

Security

We are committed to ensuring that your information is secure. In order to prevent unauthorised access or disclosure, we have put in place suitable physical, electronic and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect online.

How we use cookies

A cookie is a small text file placed on your computer or mobile device. Cookies help us to recognise your browser or device, maintain your preferences, provide certain features, and collect personal information about your online interactions with us, our content and our communications.

Some cookies are required to enable core site functionality. They are essential in order for you to use all the features of our site, for example, accessing secure areas or receiving content appropriate for your device. Other cookies enhance your experience by allowing web applications to respond to you as an individual. The web application can tailor its operations to your needs, likes and dislikes by gathering and remembering information about your preferences.

We also use traffic log cookies to identify which pages are being used. This helps us analyse data about webpage traffic and improve our website in order to tailor it to customer needs. We may use third party services such as Google Analytics for this purpose and those third parties may use their own cookies or similar technologies.

Cookies and other technologies are used to facilitate, manage, and measure the performance of advertisements displayed on the website or that are delivered by or through us. The website may use third party advertising networks to deliver targeted advertising to you. Those third parties may be able to track your browsing across sites, apps and social media sites.

Overall, cookies help us provide you with a better website by enabling us to monitor which pages and advertisements you find useful and which you do not. A cookie in no way gives us access to your computer.

You can choose to accept or decline cookies. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer. This may prevent you from taking full advantage of the website.

Links to other websites

Our website may contain links to other websites of interest. However, once you have used these links to leave our site, you should note that we do not have any control over that other website. Therefore, we cannot be responsible for the protection and privacy of any information which you provide whilst visiting such sites and such sites are not governed by this privacy statement. You should exercise caution and look at the privacy statement applicable to the website in question.

Data retention

In broad terms, we will only retain your personal information for as long as is necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy. This means that the retention periods will vary according to the type of personal information and the reason for which we have the personal information in the first place. For example, some personal information related to the provision of services to you will be kept for a number of years in order to comply with various finance and tax-related legal obligations. Other service-related personal information may be kept for a different period because it is in our legitimate interests to do so in order to provide an appropriate follow-up service.

We have a detailed internal retention policy that sets out varying retention periods for different categories of personal information depending on our legal obligations and whether there is a commercial need. After a retention period has elapsed, the personal information is securely deleted.

You may choose to restrict the collection or use of your personal information in the following ways:

  • whenever you are asked to fill in a form on the website, if you do not want the information to be used by anybody for direct marketing purposes then do not tick the box giving your permission for marketing communications.
