Data Security
We implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data from unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. These measures include data encryption, firewalls, secure server environments, and access controls. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information, no method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure. Therefore, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
Data Retention
We retain your personal information only for as long as is necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. When we no longer need to process your personal data for these purposes, we will either delete or anonymise it.

Depending on your location and applicable data protection laws, you may have the following rights regarding your personal data:

- Right to Data Portability: Request to obtain a copy of your personal data in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format to transmit it to another controller.
- Right to Object: Object to the processing of your personal data where we are relying on a legitimate interest (or those of a third party) and there is something about your particular situation which makes you want to object to processing on this ground. You also have the right to object where we are processing your personal data for direct marketing purposes.
