Security
We take the security of your information seriously. To prevent unauthorized access or disclosure, we have implemented appropriate physical, electronic, and administrative measures to protect the data collected through our website.
Our Use of Cookies
A cookie is a small file that requests permission to be stored on your computer’s hard drive. Once you agree, the file is saved, and it helps analyze web traffic or track when you visit specific pages. Cookies allow web applications to interact with you as an individual: by collecting and remembering your preferences, these applications can tailor their functions to your needs, likes, and dislikes.
We use traffic log cookies to monitor which pages are being accessed. This helps us analyze web traffic patterns and improve the website to better meet customer needs. We only use this data for statistical analysis, after which it is removed from our systems.
In general, cookies help us provide a better website by allowing us to see which pages you find useful and which you do not. Importantly, a cookie never grants us access to your computer or personal information beyond what you choose to share. You can choose to accept or decline cookies: most web browsers automatically accept them, but you can typically adjust your browser settings to decline cookies if you prefer. Note that this may limit your ability to fully use the website.
Links to Other Websites
Our website may include links to other sites of interest. However, once you use these links to leave our site, please note that we have no control over the third-party website. As a result, we cannot be held responsible for protecting the privacy of any information you share there, and such sites are not governed by this privacy policy. We advise you to exercise caution and review the privacy statement of the relevant website before engaging with it.
Controlling Your Personal Information
You can control the collection or use of your personal information in the following ways:
- We will not sell, distribute, or lease your personal information to third parties unless we have your explicit permission or are required by law to do so. If you inform us that you wish to receive promotional content from third parties we think may interest you, we may use your personal information to send such materials.
- Under the Data Protection Act 1998, you have the right to request details of the personal information we hold about you. A small fee will apply. To request a copy, please submit your request via email using our contact information.
