7. How Do You Protect My Personal Data?

We take the security of your personal information seriously and use a variety of measures based on good industry practice to keep it secure. Nonetheless, transmissions over the internet and to our Site, and our social media pages may not be completely secure, so please exercise caution. When accessing links to other websites, their privacy policies, not ours, will apply to your personal information. 

We employ security measures to protect the personal information you provide to us, to prevent access by unauthorised persons and unlawful processing, accidental loss, destruction and damage.

We use Internet standard encryption technology (“SSL” or “Secure Socket Layer” technology) to encode personal data. To check that you are in a secure area of the Site before sending personal information to us, please look at the bottom right of your website browser and check that it displays an image of a closed padlock or an unbroken key. 

The transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure. Although we will do everything possible to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of any personal information during its transmission to us online. You accept the inherent security implications of using the internet and will not hold us responsible for any breach of security unless we are at fault. 

In running our website it may be necessary to process or store the data that we collect from you in locations outside of the European Union. By providing your personal data, you agree to this transfer, storing or processing. We will take all reasonable steps to ensure that this information is held and transferred securely.

We implement various security measures and take all appropriate steps in order to protect the Personal Data you share with us.

We repeatedly review our security measures and add additional measures wherever possible to continue to increase our security.

8. How Long Will You Keep My Personal Data?

We will not keep your personal data for any longer than is necessary in light of the reason(s) for which it was first collected. At the end of that retention period, your data will either be completely deleted or anonymised, such as by aggregating data together so it can be utilised in a non-identifiable way for statistical analysis and business planning.

9. How is my personal data transferred and stored?

Sometimes we need to share your personal data with third parties. Where information is transferred, we have procedures in place to ensure that your Personal data is treated as safely and securely as if it were our own processes processing the data. For example, our contracts with those third parties stipulate the standards they must follow at all times.

10. Do You Share My Personal Data?

We may sometimes have to share your personal data with third parties who facilitate us in providing our products and services to you. We restrict the information shared to only the Personal Information required for them to fulfil their services to us. These companies can include:

• IT companies who support our website, our applications and other business systems
• Operational companies, delivery couriers
• Web analytics companies such as Google who help us to improve our website and applications
• Direct marketing companies, that enable us to manage our electronic communications with you.

If any of your personal data is required by a third party, as described above, we will take steps to ensure that your personal data is handled safely, securely, and in accordance with your rights, our obligations, and the third party’s obligations under the law.

In some limited circumstances, we may be legally required to share certain personal data, which might include yours, if we are involved in legal proceedings or complying with legal obligations, a court order, or the instructions of a government authority.
