We will process personal information for certain legitimate organisational purposes.

Storing and Security of your data
When you give us personal information, we take steps to ensure that it is treated and stored securely. We have put in place appropriate security measures to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used, or accessed in an unauthorised way, altered, or disclosed. In addition, 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 on our instructions, and they are subject to a duty of confidentiality.
We have put in place procedures to deal with any suspected personal data breach and will notify you and any applicable regulator of a breach where we are legally required to do so.
Information is stored by us electronically. We may transfer the information to other offices and to other reputable third-party organisations as explained above. We may also store information in paper files.
Non-sensitive details (your email address etc.) are transmitted normally over the Internet, and this can never be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of any information you transmit to us, and you do so at your own risk. Once we receive your information, we make our best effort to ensure its security on our systems. Where we have given (or where you have chosen) a password which enables you to access certain parts of our websites, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential. We ask you not to share your password with anyone.
We will keep your information only for as long as we need it to provide you with the goods, services or information you have requested, to administer your relationship with us, to comply with the law, or to ensure we do not communicate with you if you have asked us not to do so. When we no longer need information, we will always dispose of it securely.
How long we will use your personal data.
We will only retain your personal data for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, 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.
To determine the appropriate retention period for personal data, we consider the amount, nature and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure of your personal data, the purposes for which we process your personal data and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal, regulatory, tax, accounting, or other requirements.
We may keep basic information about our customers for six years after they cease being customers if necessary for tax purposes.
In some circumstances you can ask us to delete your data: see ‘Your Rights’ below for further information.

As part of the services offered to you through this website, the information which you provide to us may be transferred to countries outside the European Economic Area (“EEA”) or the UK.

Transfers outside of the UK
Whenever we transfer your personal data out of the UK to countries which have laws that do not provide the same level of data protection as the UK law, we always ensure that a similar degree of protection is afforded to it by ensuring that the following safeguards are implemented.
We use specific standard contractual terms approved for use in the UK which give the transferred personal data the same protection as it has in the UK, either an International Data Transfer Agreement or the International Data Transfer Addendum to the European Commission’s standard contractual clauses for international data transfers.

Data protections laws give you certain rights over your data and how we use it. These include:
• The right to have inaccurate personal data rectified.

In some cases, we may demonstrate that we have compelling legitimate grounds to process your information which override your right to object.
• Request restriction of processing of your personal data. This enables you to ask us to suspend the processing of your personal data in one of the following scenarios:
o If you want us to establish the data's accuracy;
o Where our use of the data is unlawful, but you do not want us to erase it;
o 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; or
