Right to erasure

Security precautions in place to protect the loss, misuse or alteration of your information.

As non-sensitive details (your email address etc.) are transmitted over the Internet, they can never be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your personal information, we cannot ensure the security of any information you send 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.

Links to other websites

Our website may contain links to other sites run by other organisations. This privacy policy applies only to our website, so we encourage you to read the privacy statements on the other websites you visit. We cannot be responsible for the privacy policies and practices of other sites even if you access them using links from our website.

Also, if you linked to our website from a third party site, we cannot be responsible for the privacy policies and practices of the owners and operators of that third party site and recommend that you check the policy of that third party site.

Transferring your information outside of Europe

As part of the services offered to you through this website, the information that you provide to us may be transferred to countries outside the United Kingdom (UK) or the European Union (“EU”). By way of example, this may happen if any of our servers are from time to time located in a country outside of the UK or EU. These countries may not have similar data protection laws to the UK or EU. By submitting your data, you agree to this transfer, storing or processing. If we transfer your information outside of the UK or EU in this way, we will take steps to ensure that appropriate security measures are made with the aim of making sure that your privacy rights continue to be protected as outlined in this Policy.

If you use our services while you are outside the UK or EU, your information may be transferred outside the UK or EU to provide you with those services.
