10. Protection of Personal Data
Personal data is protected using the highest levels of technical and organisational measures, in line with industry best‑practice procedures. These measures help prevent the unlawful or accidental destruction, loss or alteration of that data.
Although we apply the highest standards of data protection required by law, we cannot guarantee that your personal data will be free from error in all circumstances. Accordingly, we do not accept liability for any disclosure of personal data or for incidental, intangible or consequential loss or damage. This includes events beyond our control, such as transmission errors, unauthorised third-party access, or similar causes.
If we receive a legally enforceable request from regulators or public authorities, we may be required to share your personal data with them. Once disclosed under a legal obligation, we cannot control how those authorities handle, store, or protect your data.
Any information sent over the internet, including personal data, carries a risk of interception and cannot be guaranteed to be completely secure. The Company cannot guarantee the security of data transmitted online.
11. Links to third-party websites
This website may include links to third-party applications and websites. These parties are not our affiliates and are not under the company’s control, and our privacy policy does not apply to them. They maintain their own policies and practices for collecting and processing personal data, and we are not responsible for their activities. Please use them at your own discretion.
Always review the privacy policy of any company or service on its official website before providing any personal data. Ensure their data collection, use and processing policies align with your preferences and priorities. Any information you choose to share should be provided directly to the service provider.
12. Policy Amendments
We may update or amend this policy at any time. We will notify you of any changes on our official website and via other appropriate channels. The updated Privacy Policy will be posted on the website and will take effect immediately upon publication, unless stated otherwise.
13. Your rights regarding your personal data
You retain full control and the final decision over how your personal data is used. This includes the right to verify its accuracy, correct any errors, and choose to delete it or to restrict the scope and nature of our processing.
This page contains information relevant to EEA residents:
Your personal data is protected by the rights described herein. You may exercise these rights immediately by sending an email to the address below.
Accessing Your Rights
If the personal data you have provided is accurate, you may access it at any time. Any of your personal data we process is accessible to us and can therefore be verified.
You can request access to your personal data for verification at any time, and we will provide it in electronic format. If you request additional copies of the data we process, beyond the initial copy, a reasonable fee may apply.
The rights afforded by law and under this Privacy Policy must not encroach upon the rights of others. The company may refuse or restrict access to personal data where providing such access would compromise the rights and freedoms of other individuals.
Right to Rectify Errors
Any omissions or inaccuracies in your personal data may be corrected by you or by the Company to ensure it can be processed correctly.
Erasure Rights
You have the right to request the deletion of your personal data in the following situations: 1) where your data has been processed without your consent or in breach of the law; 2) where you ask us to remove it and the Company has no legal obligation to retain it; 3) where you object to any processing by us, even if lawful and based on our or a third-party provider’s legitimate interests; and 4) where we are legally required to erase your data.
The right to deletion does not apply where we must retain data to comply with legal obligations under EU or member state law, or where the data is necessary for the exercise or defence of legal claims.
Right to Restrict Data Processing
You have the right to request that we restrict the processing of your personal data if you believe it is inaccurate.
If you ask us to restrict the use of your personal data, we will delete it except in the following circumstances: (1) where EU or Member State law prevents deletion; (2) with your consent, where it is necessary to establish, exercise or defend legal claims; or (3) where required to protect the rights of another natural person.
Right to data portability
You have the right to access and review any personal data you have provided, if you have consented to its collection and it is processed by automated systems.
You have the right to request that your personal data be transferred to another company or organisation, where this is technically feasible. Exercising this right does not affect your right to have your data erased. This right does not apply where doing so would adversely affect the rights or freedoms of another individual.
Right to object to data processing
While the Company may rely on legitimate interests—its own or those of a third-party service provider—you have the right to object to such processing and request that it cease. This right does not apply where there are overriding legal grounds to continue, for example to establish, exercise or defend legal claims. In those circumstances, we may continue processing your personal data.
You may object at any time to your personal data being processed for direct marketing purposes.
Right to Withdraw or Refuse Consent
You may withdraw your consent to our processing of your personal data at any time and, where possible, with immediate effect. This will not apply retrospectively to any processing carried out before you withdrew your consent.
If you are dissatisfied for any reason, you have the right to lodge a complaint with any legal, regulatory, or other supervisory authority.
If you believe your rights and freedoms have been compromised in relation to the processing of your personal data, each European Union Member State has established a competent regulatory supervisory authority for this purpose. You may lodge a complaint with the relevant authority at your discretion.
Section 13 outlines the circumstances under which your rights regarding personal data may be limited under European Union law or the laws of its Member States.
Upon receipt of 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 send the requested information to you electronically, free of charge, unless doing so would contravene the law or the provisions of Section 13. We reserve the right to charge a reasonable fee, or refuse a request, where it is considered unfounded, excessive, or repetitive.
We reserve the right to request additional proof of identity if we have reasonable doubts about the identity of the person submitting a personal data request, to protect data and maintain security.
