Cookies

You can set your browser to refuse all or some browser cookies or to alert you when websites set or access cookies.  If you disable or refuse cookies, then some parts of our website or mobile applications may become inaccessible or not function properly.  For more information about the cookies we use, please see our Cookie Notice.

 

Disclosures of your Personal Data
We may have to share your data with the parties set out below for the purposes for which we collected the personal data.

  • Service providers who provide IT and system administration services.
  • Professional advisers including lawyers, bankers, auditors, and insurers who provide consultancy, banking, legal, insurance, and accounting services.

We require all third parties to respect the security of your data and to treat it by the law.  We do not allow our third-party service providers to process your data for their purposes and only permit them to process your data for specified purposes and by our instructions.

 

International Transfers
In some cases, the parties who we use to process personal data on our behalf are based outside the EEA so their processing of your data will involve a transfer of data outside the EEA.

Whenever we transfer your data out of the EEA, we ensure a similar degree of protection is afforded to it by ensuring at least one of the following safeguards is implemented:

  • We will only transfer your data to countries that have been deemed to provide an adequate level of protection for personal data by the European Commission.  For further details, see European Commission: Adequacy of the protection of personal data in non-EU countries.
  • Where we use certain service providers, we may use specific contracts approved by the European Commission that give personal data the same protection it has in Europe.  For further details, see European Commission: Model contracts for the transfer of personal data to third countries.

If you would like further information on the specific mechanism used by us when transferring

 

Data Security
We have put in place appropriate security measures to prevent your data from being accidentally lost, used, or accessed in an unauthorized way, altered, or disclosed.  In addition, we limit access to your data to those employees, agents, contractors, and other third parties who have a business need to know.  They will only process your data on our instructions and they are subject to a duty of confidentiality.

 

Data Retention
We will only retain your data for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes we collected it for, including to satisfy any legal, regulatory, tax, accounting, or reporting requirements and for the establishment or defense of legal claims.

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 unauthorized use or disclosure of your data, the purposes for which we process your data, and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements.

In some circumstances, we may anonymize your data (so that it can no longer be associated with you) for research or statistical purposes, in which case we may use this information indefinitely without further notice to you.

 

Your Legal Rights and how to make a Complaint
Under certain circumstances, you have rights under data protection laws about your data.  In summary, these are the rights of accessrectification (i.e., correction), erasure (also known as the “right to be forgotten”), restrictionobjectiondata portability, and withdrawal of consent.  If you wish to exercise any of these rights, then please contact us.

You will not have to pay a fee to access your data (or to exercise any of the other rights).  However, we may charge a reasonable fee if your request is unfounded, repetitive, or excessive.  Alternatively, we could refuse to comply with your request in these circumstances.

We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access your data (or to exercise any of your other rights).  This is a security measure to ensure that personal data is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it.  We may also contact you to ask you for further information about your request to speed up our response.

We try to respond to all legitimate requests within one month.  Occasionally it could take us longer than a month if your request is particularly complex or you have made several requests.  In this case, we will notify you and keep you updated.
