How we keep your personal information secure
The personal information we collect about you is held by us and by our trusted data storage providers (which may include storage in ‘cloud’ facilities). We take all reasonable steps to ensure that the personal information we hold is protected against loss, unauthorised use, access or disclosure and any other misuse, and we require our trusted service providers to do the same, even where they may store or process personal information overseas. However, please note that whilst we take appropriate technical and organisational measures to safeguard the personal information that you provide to us, no electronic transmission or storage can ever be guaranteed secure. We retain your personal information only for as long as we need it and we destroy the information we no longer need in a secure manner by securely erasing all data.
