We will only keep your Personal Information for as long as we reasonably require and, in any event, only for as long as the Data Protection Legislation allows.

Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure and, although we will take steps to protect your Personal Information, we cannot guarantee the security of your Personal Information transmitted via the Website; any transmission is therefore at your own risk.

It may also be accessed by staff operating outside the EEA who work for us or for one of our partner or group companies. This includes people engaged in, among other things, the provision of support services to us.
