Providing personal data to us is voluntary. Where we are subject to legal obligations that require the processing of personal data, the legal basis is Article 6(1)(c) GDPR. Where it is necessary to process personal data to ensure secure IT operations, to detect and prevent misuse of our systems, or to establish, exercise or defend legal claims, the legal basis is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR; our legitimate interest lies in the security, integrity and availability of our services and in the pursuit and defence of legal claims.
6. Retention
We process and store your personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it is processed. Where we process data to comply with a legal obligation, we store it for as long as that obligation requires. Where data is needed to examine, pursue or defend legal claims, we store it for as long as proceedings could be brought or are ongoing and have not been finally concluded.
7. Recipients
This website is hosted by an IT service provider that processes data on our behalf, only on our instructions and under a data processing agreement ensuring data protection and data security. We may also disclose personal data to authorities, courts or professional advisers where this is required by law or necessary to pursue or defend legal claims. We do not sell personal data.

We do not transfer personal data to countries outside the European Economic Area.
9. Links to other websites
This website contains links to websites of other providers. When you click on these links, we have no influence over what data those providers collect and use. Please refer to the privacy statement of the relevant provider for details.
10. Data security
We use technical and organisational measures to protect our systems against attacks and misuse, and to protect personal data against loss, incorrect alteration and unauthorised access by third parties.

Under the GDPR, you have the following rights in relation to your personal data:

(b) Right to rectification (Article 16 GDPR): You can request that inaccurate data be corrected.
(c) Right to erasure (Article 17 GDPR): You can request the erasure of your data where the legal requirements are met, for example where the data is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, where you have objected to processing and there are no overriding legitimate grounds, or where the data has been processed unlawfully.
(d) Right to restriction of processing (Article 18 GDPR): You can request that we restrict the processing of your data, for example while we verify its accuracy, where processing is unlawful but you do not want the data erased, or where you need the data to establish, exercise or defend legal claims.

(f) Right to object (Article 21 GDPR): You can object at any time, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to processing based on our legitimate interests (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR).
