Sharing your data

We may share your personal data with trusted and secure third parties that provide services on our behalf, such as cloud-based data storage providers, marketing and IT solutions providers.

Generally we will use any personal data only in the region in which you are located in order to provide services from our local presence in that region. If you are located in the UK or European Economic Area, it is unlikely that we will ever share your personal data outside the UK, or the European Economic Area. If, however, it becomes necessary for the purposes of providing our services to you, we will only share it with organisations in countries benefiting from a European Commission adequacy decision or on the basis of an International Data Transfer Agreement approved by the Secretary of State which contractually oblige the recipient to process and protect your personal data to the standard expected within the UK/EEA.

How long we keep your data

We will retain your personal data for as long as is necessary to provide you with our services and for a reasonable period thereafter to enable us to meet our contractual and legal obligations and to deal with complaints and claims.

At the end of the retention period, your personal data will be securely deleted or anonymised, for example by aggregation with other data, so that it can be used in a non-identifiable way for statistical analysis and business planning.

How we protect your data

We implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect data that we process from unauthorised disclosure, use, alteration or destruction.

For instance, we have data protection and information security compliance frameworks that are operationalised by policies, procedures, cybersecurity practices, tools and systems, training, risk assessments and ongoing Data Protection support.
