Cookies

We use various technologies to collect information, which may include sending cookies to your computer or mobile device.

A cookie is a file containing an identifier (a string of letters and numbers) that is sent by a web server to a web browser and is stored by the browser. The identifier is then sent back to the server each time the browser requests a page from the server.

We may also collect information using web beacons (tracking pixels) which are electronic images that may be used in the services or emails to deliver cookies, count visits and understand whether an email has been opened or acted upon.

We use the following cookies:

  • Necessary cookies help make a website usable by enabling basic functions like page navigation and access to secure areas of the website. The website cannot function properly without these cookies.
  • Statistic cookies help website owners to understand how visitors interact with websites by collecting and reporting information anonymously
  • Preference cookies enable a website to remember information that changes the way the website behaves or looks, like your preferred language or the region that you are in.
  • Marketing cookies are used to track visitors across websites. The intention is to display ads that are relevant and engaging for the individual user and thereby more valuable for publishers and third party advertisers.


Most web browsers are set to accept cookies by default but if you prefer you can set your browser to reject them.

5. Disclosures of your personal data

We may share your personal data with the parties set out below for the purposes set out in the table above.

6. International Transfers

We may transfer your personal data outside of the EEA or UK in carrying out the purposes and activities set out in section 4 above. When we transfer personal data outside of EEA or UK we ensure an appropriate degree of protection is in place by implementing at least one of the safeguards:

  • Adequacy – transferring personal data to countries that have been deemed to provide an adequate level of protection by the European Commission or UK ICO (as appropriate)
  • For our service providers based outside EEA, UK or countries with adequacy, we will only transfer data to them where an agreement incorporating the UK IDTA, EU SCCs or another legally applicable data transfer mechanism is in place.

7. Data Security

We have in place appropriate technical and organizational security measures to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used, or accessed in an unauthorized way, altered or disclosed.

We limit access to your personal data to those staff or service providers who need to know, and they only process personal data on our instructions.

8. Data Retention

We will only retain your personal data for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, regulatory, tax or accounting requirements. We may retain your personal data for longer in the event of a complaint or reasonably held belief that litigation is a prospect.

We determine appropriate retention periods considering the amount and sensitivity of personal data, the potential risk of harm in the event of unauthorised use, the purposes for which we process your personal data and whether these can be achieved by alternative means in addition to legal, regulatory, tax or accounting requirements.

Under certain circumstances, you have rights under data protection laws in relation to your personal data:

  • Request transfer of your personal data. You can request your personal data in a specific format to transfer to a third party
  • Withdraw consent. If we are relying on consent to process your personal data, you can withdraw it (prior processing unaffected).
