10. Protection of Personal Data
Personal data is safeguarded using the highest level of technical and organisational measures, aligned with recognised best‑practice procedures. These controls are designed to prevent unlawful or accidental destruction, loss or alteration of data.
Although we apply the highest levels of care and the procedures required by law for data protection, it is not possible to guarantee that your personal data will always be free from error. Accordingly, we cannot accept liability for any disclosure of personal data, or for incidental, intangible, or consequential loss or damage. This includes circumstances beyond our control, such as transmission errors, unauthorised third-party access, or similar causes.
If we receive a legally binding request from regulators or legal authorities, we may be required to disclose your personal data to those authorities. Once disclosed under a legal obligation, we cannot control how those authorities handle, store or protect your data.
Any information transmitted over the internet, including personal data, carries a risk of interception and cannot be guaranteed to be fully secure. The Company cannot guarantee the security of any data transmitted online.
11. Links to third-party websites
On this website, you may encounter links to third-party applications and websites. These are not affiliates, are not under the company’s control, and our privacy policy does not apply to them. Each third party has its own policies and practices for collecting and processing personal data, and we are not responsible for their activities. Please exercise your own judgement when using these links.
Before providing any personal data, always read the privacy policy on the company’s official website. Make sure their data collection, use and processing practices align with your preferences and priorities. If you choose to share data, do so directly with the service provider.
12. Policy Amendments
We may update or amend this policy at any time. We will notify you of any changes via the website and other appropriate channels. The latest version of our privacy policy will be published on the official website and, unless stated otherwise, will take effect immediately upon publication.
13. Your rights in relation to your personal data
You retain full control and the final say over how your personal data is used, including the right to verify its accuracy, correct any errors, and choose to delete it or restrict the scope and nature of our processing.
This page contains information relevant to residents of the EEA:
Your personal data is protected by the rights described herein. You may exercise these rights at any time by sending an email to the address below.
Accessing Your Rights
If the personal data you have provided to us is accurate, you may access it at any time. Any of your personal data that we process is accessible to us and therefore verifiable.
You may request access to your personal data at any time for verification, and we will provide it in electronic format. If you ask for additional copies of the data we process beyond the first copy, we may charge a reasonable fee.
Rights granted by law and under the privacy policy must not infringe the rights of others. The company may refuse or restrict access to personal data where such access would infringe the rights and freedoms of others.
Right to Rectify Inaccuracies
You or the Company may correct any errors in your personal data, whether due to omissions or inaccurate details, to ensure proper processing.
Erasure Rights
You have the right to request the deletion of your personal data in the following circumstances: 1) if your personal data has been processed without your consent or outside the bounds of the law; 2) if you ask for it to be removed and the Company has no legal obligation to retain it; 3) if you object to any further processing by us, even where lawful and based on our or a third party’s legitimate interests; and 4) if we are required by law to delete your data.
The right to deletion may be limited by legal obligations under EU law or any Member State’s law. It also does not apply where the data is necessary to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims.
Right to Restrict Data Processing
You have the right to request that the processing of your personal information be restricted where you believe it is inaccurate.
If you request that the use of your personal data be restricted, we will delete it unless: 1) deletion is prohibited by law in the European Union or any Member State; 2) with your consent, retention is necessary for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims; 3) retention is required to protect the rights of another natural person.
Your Right to Data Portability
You have the right to access and review any personal data you have provided, where you have consented to its collection and the processing is carried out by automated means.
You are entitled to request the transfer of your personal data to another company or organisation, where this is technically feasible. Exercising this right does not affect your right to have your data erased. We cannot comply with such a request if doing so would infringe the rights or freedoms of another individual.
Right to object to data processing
While the Company may process data on the basis of our legitimate interests or those of a third-party service provider, you have the right to object and request that such processing stops. However, this does not apply where there are compelling legal grounds to continue, including the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims. In these circumstances, we may continue processing your personal data.
You may object at any time to the processing of your personal data for direct marketing purposes.
Your Right to Withdraw or Decline Consent
You may withdraw your consent to our processing of your personal data at any time and, where possible, with immediate effect. This does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before your withdrawal.
If you are dissatisfied for any reason, you have the right to lodge a complaint with any relevant legal, regulatory or other supervisory authority.
If you believe your rights and freedoms have been violated in relation to the processing of your personal data, each European Union Member State has an independent regulatory and supervisory authority for this purpose. You may lodge a complaint with the relevant authority should you wish.
Section 13 sets out the circumstances in which your rights relating to personal data may be restricted under European Union law or the laws of its Member States.
Once we receive your request concerning your personal data and its processing, we will provide access to the information you have requested, as set out in Section 13 of this policy. We may extend this timeframe by up to two months, depending on the volume of requests and the nature of your request. If an extension is required, we will notify you within one month of receiving your request.
We will provide the requested information electronically and free of charge, unless doing so would conflict with the law or the provisions of Section 13. We may charge a reasonable fee or refuse to act on a request where it is manifestly unfounded, excessive, or repetitive.
We reserve the right to request additional proof of identity if we have reasonable grounds to doubt the identity of the person making a personal data request, for data protection and security purposes.
