The personal data we collect is processed at our offices in the UK and in data processing facilities that are provided to us by third parties.
Some of these third parties are located outside the UK and the European Economic Area (EEA). If we ever transfer your personal data outside the UK and the EEA, we take steps to protect your privacy and make sure that the transfers comply with the law.
We only keep your data long enough to carry out the task it was collected for. The amount of time varies depending on the type of data and how we use it.
Like many technology businesses, we use trusted suppliers to host our services (including our websites and apps) and power our business systems. We only choose partners who have appropriate security measures in place to keep your data safe.
We only share your personal data with these suppliers when we absolutely need to. If these suppliers are outside the UK and the EEA, we take steps to protect your privacy and make sure that those transfers comply with the law.
Our websites and apps use ‘cookies’ and other similar technologies. A cookie is a piece of information placed on your device so we can remember something about you or your device.
Cookies help us monitor and improve our services, and to personalise your experience (including the ads you see on our websites, our apps and elsewhere). You can find out more in our cookie policy.
Our websites and apps contain links to other websites. This policy does not apply to those other websites. You should check the privacy policy of any other website before submitting your personal data to it.
