We are committed to protecting and respecting your privacy. We take your privacy very seriously and we ask that you read this Privacy Notice carefully as it contains important information on:

1. the personal data we collect about you;
2. how we look after your personal data when you visit our website;
3. with whom your personal data might be shared; and
4. your privacy rights and how the law protects you.

Personal data provided by you

The personal data collected may include your:

1. full name;
2. date of birth;
3. email address;
4. telephone number;
5. enquiry details.

Personal data provided by third parties

In order to help us improve how we provide our services to you, we may receive information about you from other sources which we will add to the information we already hold about you.

We collect information about you so that we can:

1. assist you with your queries in relation to our business;
2. conduct research, statistical analysis and behavioural analysis;
3. carry out customer profiling;
4. detect and prevent fraud;
5. notify you of any changes to our website or to our services that may affect you; and
6. improve our services.

We do not, and will not, sell any of your personal data to any third party.

As an essential part of being able to provide our services to you, we do share your data with the following categories of third parties:

1. service providers that help us to run our business, such as our marketing platform provider (Mailchimp), which records your marketing preferences and sends our email communications to you; website hosting providers; and website developers;
2. professional advisers including lawyers, bankers, auditors and insurers who provide advice to us when we require it;
3. law enforcement agencies in connection with any investigation to help prevent unlawful activity.

We require all third parties to respect the security of your personal data and to treat it in accordance with the law.

In those cases where we need your consent to hold and process your personal data, we will ask you to check a box on any form requiring consent. By checking these boxes you are confirming that you have been informed as to why we are collecting the information, how this information will be used, for how long the information will be kept, who else will have access to this information and what your rights are as a data subject — all of which is set out in this Privacy Notice.

To protect your information we maintain our policies and procedures to make sure that only authorised personnel can access the information, that information is handled and stored in a secure and sensible manner, and that all systems which can access the information have the necessary security measures in place.

In addition to these operational measures we also use a range of technologies and security systems to reinforce the policies and procedures, including ensuring that:

1. access to personal data is restricted only to those employees who need to access this information;
2. we store your personal data on secure servers, and unauthorised external access to personal data is prevented through the use of a firewall;
3. information used for reporting and/or customer profiling purposes is anonymised.

We shall only retain your information for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.

If you would like more information about how long we retain specific types of your information, please contact us on the contact details provided later in this Privacy Notice.

All information you provide via our website is stored on our secure servers within the European Economic Area (“EEA”). If any data that we collect from you is transferred to, or stored at, a destination outside the EEA at any time, we will update this Privacy Notice accordingly.

When you link from our website to one of our trusted third-party partner websites, to our marketing platform provider (Mailchimp) when you sign up to receive our newsletter, or to a social media site, any personal data which you provide them may be transferred or stored outside the EEA. Please check those websites’ privacy notices carefully, or get in touch with us for more information.
