Your privacy is important to us. It is our policy to respect your privacy regarding any
information we may collect from you across our website and other sites we own and
operate.
1. Information We Collect
Log Data
When you visit our website, our servers may automatically log the standard data
provided by your web browser. It may include your computer’s Internet Protocol (IP)
address, your browser type and version, the pages you visit, the time and date of your
visit, the time spent on each page, and other details.
Device Data
We may also collect data about the device you’re using to access our website. This data
may include the device type, operating system, unique device identifiers, device
settings, and geo-location data. What we collect can depend on the individual settings
of your device and software. We recommend checking the policies of your device
manufacturer or software provider to learn what information they make available to
us.
Personal Information
We may ask for personal information, such as your:
Name
2. Legal Bases for Processing
We will process your personal information lawfully, fairly and in a transparent manner.
We collect and process information about you only where we have legal basis for doing so. The legal basis depends on the services you use and how you use them, meaning we collect and use your information only where:
It’s necessary for the performance of a contract to which you are a party
or to take steps at your request before entering into such a contract (for
example, when we provide a service you request from us);
It satisfies a legitimate interest (which is not overridden by your data
protection interests), such as for research and development, to market
and promote our services, and to protect our legal rights and interests;
You give us consent to do so for a specific purpose (for example, you
might consent to us sending you our newsletter); or
We need to process your data to comply with a legal obligation.
Where you consent to our use of information about you for a specific purpose, you
have the right to change your mind at any time (but this will not affect any processing
that has already taken place).
We do not keep personal information for longer than is necessary. While we retain this
information, we will protect it within commercially acceptable means to prevent loss
and theft, as well as unauthorized access, disclosure, copying, use or modification.
That said, we advise that no method of electronic transmission or storage is 100%
secure and cannot guarantee absolute data security. If necessary, we may retain your
personal information for our compliance with a legal obligation or in order to protect
your vital interests or the vital interests of another natural person.
3. Collection & Use of Information
We may collect, hold, use and disclose information for the following purposes and
personal information will not be further processed in a manner that is incompatible
with these purposes:
To enable you to customize or personalize your experience of our
website;
To enable you to access and use our website, associated applications and
associated social media platforms;
To contact and communicate with you;
For internal record keeping and administrative purposes;
For analytics, market research and business development, including to
operate and improve our website, associated applications and associated
social media platforms;
For advertising and marketing, including to send you promotional
information about our products and services and information about third
parties that we consider may be of interest to you; and
To comply with our legal obligations and resolve any disputes that we
may have.
4. Disclosure of Personal Information to Third Parties
We may disclose personal information to:
Third party service providers for the purpose of enabling them to provide
their services, including (without limitation) IT service providers, data
storage, hosting and server providers, ad networks, analytics, error
loggers, debt collectors, maintenance or problem-solving providers,
marketing or advertising providers, professional advisors and payment
systems operators;
Sponsors or promoters of any competition we run; and
Third parties, including agents or sub-contractors, who assist us in
providing information, products, services or direct marketing to you.
5. International Transfers of Personal Information
The personal information we collect is stored and processed in our home country, or
where we or our partners, affiliates and third-party providers maintain facilities. By
providing us with your personal information, you consent to the disclosure to these
overseas third parties.
We will ensure that any transfer of personal information from countries in the
European Economic Area (EEA) to countries outside the EEA will be protected by
appropriate safeguards, for example by using standard data protection clauses
approved by the European Commission, or the use of binding corporate rules or other
legally accepted means.
Where we transfer personal information from a non-EEA country to another country,
you acknowledge that third parties in other jurisdictions may not be subject to similar
data protection laws to the ones in our jurisdiction. There are risks if any such third
party engages in any act or practice that would contravene the data privacy laws in our
jurisdiction and this might mean that you will not be able to seek redress under our
jurisdiction’s privacy laws.
6. Your Rights & Controlling Your Personal Information
