11. International Transfers

We may transfer your personal data to service providers that carry out certain functions on our behalf. This may involve transferring personal data outside the UK to countries which have laws that do not provide the same level of data protection as the UK law.

Whenever we transfer your personal data out of the UK to service providers, we ensure a similar degree of protection is afforded to it by ensuring that the following safeguards are in place:

  • We will only transfer your personal data to countries that have been deemed by the UK to provide an adequate level of protection for personal data.

We have implemented appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data against accidental loss, unauthorised access, alteration, or disclosure. Access to personal data is restricted to employees, agents, contractors, and third parties who have a legitimate business need and who are subject to confidentiality obligations and required to process data only on our instructions.

We also have procedures in place to manage suspected personal data breaches and will notify affected individuals and relevant regulators where legally required.


13. Data Retention

We retain personal data only for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, including legal, regulatory, tax, accounting, and reporting obligations.
