We process personal data for one of the following reasons:

10. Transfers of data outside of the United Kingdom

From time to time the third parties we share data with may be outside of the United Kingdom in countries that do not always have the same standard of data protection laws as the UK. However, we will have a contract in place to ensure your information is adequately protected, and we will remain bound by our obligations under applicable UK data protection laws even when your personal information is processed outside of the UK.

The measures we use to protect your data include security reviews of organisations, contractual model clauses approved for use by the European Commission, and other approved transfer mechanisms.


11. How long do we hold your information for?

Unless there is a specific regulatory or legal requirement to keep your information longer, we will keep it for as long as is reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected.

To determine the appropriate retention period, we consider the amount, nature and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure, the purposes for which we process it, and the applicable legal requirements.

As a data subject you have a number of rights under data protection laws:

  • Subject access requests: you have a right to access the personal data we hold about you.
