We take your privacy seriously and are committed to protecting your personal information. We aim to be clear and open about our data and security practices.

Where we ask you to provide us with any information by which you can be identified, you can be assured that it will only be used by this privacy statement, and in line with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) 2018.

What information do we collect about you?

  • Register for a website account or update your account details

We collect material that you proactively post or contribute to our sites and any correspondence you have with us.

We also collect information on our website usage through cookies, if your browser accepts them. Some of our websites feature tracking software – this means that if you're a logged-in user, have filled an online form, or have previously clicked a link in one of our emails, we may link your website usage information (such as pages visited, IP address, browser and device used) to other information we hold about you, such as your name and organisation.

How do we use your information?

We collect information about you to manage your account, process your order or fulfill any contract we have with you.

We use information collected from your website visits to personalise your future visits and to improve the experience we provide to our online users. For example, information like the browser and device you are using helps us to maintain usable and accessible websites for all our audiences.

We also use your information to help us develop products and services that you need, and where we have a lawful basis and permission to contact you, we may use it to help us send you relevant and timely information about the help and support that we offer.

Where do we store your information?

Online forms

The forms on our website are built using a platform hosted in the US, so the information you provide to us is initially stored there. The contract we have with this provider ensures their practices comply with the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation 2018 and we regularly delete data from this system.

In the longer term, your data is stored in our customer relationship management system, which is hosted on a secure server in the EU.

Website accounts

If you are a registered user of our website(s), the personal data within your account(s) is stored in secure web servers based in the EU.

You are responsible for keeping your website account password(s) confidential. We ask you not to share your password with anyone for your security.

Security and encryption

We take great care to ensure that our websites operate at the highest security levels and that our suppliers are committed to best practices in digital security. All personal information and financial data are encrypted in transmission. However, the security of data transmission via the internet can never be 100% guaranteed, and data transmission is at your own risk.

Our cookies record things like whether you are currently logged into your website account, to ensure you’re given the right access on each page. They make sure the display settings you’ve selected before (for example, preferred language) – or the settings associated with your account permissions – are activated correctly.

We also use third-party cookies to track how our websites are used, as well as to carry out our advertising and marketing activities.
