INTERNATIONAL TRANSFERS
Some of our third party providers are businesses outside of the European Economic Area (EEA) in countries, which do not always offer the same levels of protection for your personal data. We do our best to ensure a similar degree of security by ensuring that contracts, code of conduct or certification are in place, which give your personal data the same protection it has within the EEA and this privacy policy. If we are not able to do so, we will request your explicit consent to the transfer and you can withdraw this consent at any time.
In particular, any transfer of your personal data made by us to a location outside of the EEA will be governed by the relevant set of model contract clauses approved by the European Commission, which we will make available to you on request.
All information you provide to us is stored on secure servers. Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password which enables you to access certain parts of our website, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential. You must not share your password with anyone.
Please contact us if you want further information on the specific mechanism used by us when transferring your personal data outside the EEA.

We may retain your personal data for a longer period in the event of a complaint or if we reasonably believe there is a prospect of litigation in respect to our relationship with you.
To determine the appropriate retention period for personal data, we consider the amount, nature and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure of your personal data, the purposes for which we process your personal data and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal, regulatory, tax, accounting or other requirements.
