We take your privacy seriously. We will not sell or rent your information to third parties.
We will not share your information with third parties for their marketing purposes.
We may, however, share your information with third-party service providers, agents, subcontractors, and other associated organisations for the purposes of completing tasks and providing services to you on our behalf. When we use third-party service providers, we will only disclose the personal information that is necessary to deliver the service. We have a contract in place that requires them to keep your information secure and not to use it for their own direct marketing purposes.
We will only release your information to third parties if you have requested us to do so, or if we are required to do so by law, for example, by a court order or for the purposes of prevention of fraud or other crime.

8. Security Precautions
We take steps to ensure that your personal information is treated securely. Non-sensitive details (your email address etc.) are transmitted normally over the Internet, and this can never be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of any information you transmit to us, and you do so at your own risk. Once we receive your information, we make our best effort to ensure its security on our systems.

'Cookies' are small pieces of information sent by an organisation to your computer and stored on your hard drive to allow that website to recognise you when you visit. They collect statistical data about your Browse actions and patterns and do not identify you as an individual. This helps us to improve our website and deliver a better, more personalised service.
You can switch off cookies by setting your browser preferences. For more information on how to switch off cookies on your computer, please visit our full cookie policy (link to be added) or consult your browser's help section.

As part of the services offered to you through this website, the information which you provide to us may be transferred to countries outside the United Kingdom (UK) and European Union (“EU”).
