Whenever we collect or process your data, we will only store the data for as long as is necessary for the purpose for which it was collected or as long as it is lawful for us to do so (for example this may be for as long as you are a customer or because of a legal obligation to retain the information, whichever is the longest).
We use a number of third-party cloud-based services for the purposes of effectively running our business and providing our services to you. We also use a number of third-party organisations, e.g. accountants, HR support, etc.
In all cases where we are using a third-party service or company, we will only provide the minimal amount of information for the purposes of delivering the service to us and to meet our requirements.

If we do this, we have procedures in place to ensure your data receives the same protection as if it were being processed inside the EEA.
Any transfer of your personal data will follow applicable laws and we will treat the information under the guiding principles of this Privacy Notice.
