The Internet is global, so your personal data may be transferred in transit outside of the European Economic Area (“EEA”).   Countries outside of the EEA may not have similar protections in place regarding your personal data and its use as set out in this policy. However, we have taken the steps outlined in section 4 below to try and protect the security of your personal data and comply with our legal obligations about transfer of your personal data to non-EEA countries.

4. HOW WE KEEP YOUR PERSONAL DATA SAFE

Your personal data is held on a secure database.

We have policies, rules and technical measures in place to protect the personal data that we have under our control from unauthorised access, improper use or disclosure, unauthorised modification, unlawful destruction or accidental loss.

All of our employees and data processors that have access to, and are associated with, the processing of your personal data are obliged to respect the confidentiality of your personal data.

We ensure that your personal data will not automatically be disclosed by us to government institutions or authorities.  However, if required by law, or when we receive a request from regulatory bodies or law enforcement organisations, we may disclose your information.

Please be aware that communications over the Internet are not secure unless they have been encrypted.

Other than ensuring that we have complied with our own obligations under the Data Protection Act 1998, we are not responsible for the actions of suppliers and service providers or other third parties in the use they may make of your personal data.

The personal data we have access to through social media platforms will depend on your personal settings on these platforms.  We will have access to all public information on these platforms.  We may also be able to access personal data that others share about you (because they control how that is shared, not you).

We may collect any data that is accessible to us or that you provide through social media platforms, including but not limited to your Facebook and/or Twitter profile picture, gender, and usernames.  We will interact with you through social media platforms in accordance with each platform’s rules but we are not responsible for how the platform owners collect and handle your data.  We are not responsible for what third parties post on our social media accounts.
