How we protect your data:
We have put various security measures in place to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used, altered, disclosed, or accessed without authorisation. Our internal storage systems, cloud servers or devices are all password protected with restricted access for our staff only. We also allow access to your personal data only to those employees or authorities who have a need to know such data. They will only process your personal data on our instructions and they must keep it confidential. We have procedures in place to deal with any suspected personal data breach and will notify you and any applicable regulator of a breach if we are legally required to.
As a company, we have carried out a Privacy Impact Assessment and internal Audit. Our website follows HTTPS Protocol for secure communication over a computer network, the communication protocol is encrypted using Secure Sockets Layer or an (SSL certificate). The principal motivation for HTTPS is authentication of the accessed website and protection of the privacy and integrity of the exchanged data while in transit. It protects against man-in-the-middle attacks. The bidirectional encryption of communications between a client and server protects against eavesdropping and tampering of the communication. In practice, this provides a reasonable assurance that one is communicating without interference by attackers with the website that one intended to communicate with, as opposed to an impostor. Historically, HTTPS connections were primarily used for payment transactions on the World Wide Web, e-mail and for sensitive transactions in corporate information systems. HTTPS is, however, being used more often by web users than the original non-secure HTTP, primarily to protect page authenticity on all types of websites; secure accounts; and keep user communications, identity, and web browsing private. Our website also has another layer of security called Sitelock: SiteLock, the Global Leader in business website security solutions, is the only web security solution to offer complete, cloud-based website protection. Its 360-degree monitoring finds and fixes threats, prevents against hackers and future attacks, accelerates website performance and meets PCI compliance standards for businesses of all sizes. SiteLock protects over 12 million websites worldwide. Our website and database is also backed up on a daily basis.
Disclosure or transfer of your personal data:
We may have to share your personal data with the parties set out below:
Government or legal bodies that require us to report processing activities or otherwise disclose your personal data. Market researchers and fraud prevention agencies.

We require all third parties to whom we transfer your data to respect the security of your personal data and to treat it in accordance with the law. We would only allow such third parties to process your personal data for specified purposes and in accordance with our instructions.

Where if we transfer your data to third parties outside of the EEA, we will ensure that certain safeguards are in place to ensure a similar degree of security for your personal data. As such: We may transfer your personal data to countries that the European Commission have approved as providing an adequate level of protection for personal data by; or If we use US-based providers that are part of EU-US Privacy Shield, we may transfer data to them, as they have equivalent safeguards in place; or Where we use certain service providers who are established outside of the EEA, we may use specific contracts or codes of conduct or certification mechanisms approved by the European Commission which give personal data the same protection it has in Europe. If none of the above safeguards is available, we may request your explicit consent to the specific transfer. You will have the right to withdraw this consent at any time. European data protection law requires data about European residents which is transferred outside the European Union to be safeguarded to the same standards as if the data was in Europe.
