4. Legal Basis for Processing

Where required by applicable data protection law, we rely on one or more of the following legal bases to process personal information: your consent, the necessity of processing to perform a contract with you, our legitimate interests in operating and improving our services, and compliance with legal obligations. Where we rely on legitimate interests, we aim to balance those interests against your rights and freedoms.

5. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

Our website may use cookies and similar tracking technologies to distinguish you from other users, remember your preferences, and analyse how the site is used. You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings; however, doing so may affect certain functionality of the site. We do not currently respond to "Do Not Track" browser signals.

  • Professional advisors, including legal and financial consultants, where necessary for business purposes.
  • Regulatory or legal authorities, where disclosure is required to comply with a legal obligation, protect our rights, or respond to lawful requests.
  • Business transfer recipients, in connection with a merger, acquisition, restructuring, or sale of assets, subject to standard confidentiality arrangements.

7. Data Retention

We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfil the purposes outlined in this policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law. Criteria used to determine retention periods include the nature of the information, the purpose for which it was collected, and applicable legal or regulatory requirements.

8. Data Security

We implement reasonable technical and organisational measures designed to protect information against unauthorised access, loss, misuse, or alteration. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security of information transmitted to or from our website.

9. International Data Transfers

Depending on where you are located, information we collect may be transferred to, stored, and processed in a country other than your own. Where such transfers occur, we aim to ensure appropriate safeguards are in place consistent with applicable data protection requirements.
