Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit our Website and are used to make the users’ experience more efficient. We are able to store cookies on your computer where they are necessary for the operation of our Website however, for non-essential cookies we need your permission.

We use cookies to distinguish users and to improve our Website. We analyse how you use our Website, and we look at aggregate statistics about your usage, and how others use our Website. We collect certain information from these cookies, and this includes information about your IP address, your location when you access our Website, the date and time you access our Website, the language you use and the type of browser you use.

We do not track individual users or use cookies to identify individuals. We use cookies to recognise you and your preferences, improve our Website’s performance and collect analytical information for ourselves and our business partners. Without the knowledge gained we would not be able to provide the service we do.

These are the types of cookies we use:

• ‘Session cookies’ allow us to track your actions during a single browsing session, but they do not remain on your device afterwards; and
• ‘Persistent cookies’ remain on your device between sessions. We use them to authenticate you and to remember your preferences. We can also use them to balance the load on our servers and improve your experience on our Website.

Session and Persistent cookies can be either first or third party cookies. A first-party cookie is set by the website being visited; a third-party cookie is set by a different website. Both types of cookie may be used by us or our business partners.

The third-party cookies we may use are:

• Google Analytics – this is a web analytics service provided by Google, Inc. The cookies used by Google Analytics help us to analyse how users use our Website and to count the number of people who use it. Google Analytics stores your IP address anonymously.

Some services offer a remarketing option based on email address lists. Users may opt-out of certain advertising features through applicable device and platform settings.

We may process your data for compliance with a regulatory requirement or legal obligation to which we are subject to. Your data will only be processed if processing the data to comply with such obligation is a reasonable and appropriate way of achieving compliance.

We also collect, use and share aggregated data such as statistical or demographic data for any purpose. Aggregated data may be derived from your personal data but is not considered personal data in law as this data does not directly or indirectly reveal your identity. For example, we may aggregate your usage data to calculate the percentage of users accessing a specific website feature.

How we store your personal data

We store all of your personal data on our servers within the United Kingdom.

We may transfer your collected data to storage outside the European Economic Area (EEA) or the United Kingdom. It may be processed outside the EEA or the United Kingdom so you can receive our Website and deal with payment, if applicable. If we do store or transfer data outside the EEA or the United Kingdom, we will take all reasonable steps to ensure that your data is treated as safely and securely as it would be within the EEA or the United Kingdom.

This means that sometimes we may need to use legally binding contractual terms between us and any third parties we engage with and the use of the EU-approved Model Contractual Arrangements.

Data security is of great importance to us, and to protect your data we have put in place suitable physical, electronic and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure data collected through our Site. In addition, we limit access to your personal data to those employees, agents, contractors and other third parties who have a need to know. They will only process your personal data on our instructions, and they are subject to a duty of confidentiality.

We will still be responsible for protection of your personal data, even where we have transferred it outside the EEA or the United Kingdom.

We regularly review our data retention obligations to ensure we are not retaining data for longer than we are legally obliged to.

• If we want to sell our business, or our company, we can disclose it to the potential buyer;

We may contract with third parties/subcontractors to supply our services to you on our behalf. These include cloud services used to send emails, marketing emails and database management providers and technology providers that assist in providing our services to you.

Where we have outsourced a function or activity to an external service provider, we will only disclose personal information that the service provider needs to undertake that function or activity, and we require external service providers to agree to keep your personal information secure and we enter into confidentiality agreements for this purpose.
