How we keep your personal data secure

We use technical and organisational measures to safeguard your personal data – for example we use secure connections on our website to ensure that your website is encrypted. This means that we convert your data into a computer code, which will make it harder for hackers to access your data on our website.

While we will use all reasonable efforts to safeguard your personal data, you acknowledge that the use of the internet is not entirely secure and for this reason we cannot guarantee the security or integrity of any personal data that are transferred from you or to you via the internet.

If you want further information about how we are keeping your data secure, or have any particular concerns about your information, please contact us.

Working With Us to Keep Personal Data Secure
