GDPR

For users in the European Union, we adhere to the Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016, known as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). For users in the United Kingdom, we adhere to the GDPR as enshrined in the Data Protection Act 2018.

We have not appointed a Data Protection Officer as we do not fall within the categories of controllers and processors required to appoint one under Article 37 of the GDPR.

Consent

By using our Site, users agree that they consent to the conditions set out in this Privacy Policy.

Legal Basis for Processing

  • Processing of user personal data is necessary for us or a third party to pursue a legitimate interest
  • Our legitimate interest is not overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of users
  • Our legitimate interest: Providing tailored editorial and promotional content to Site visitors

If you follow hyperlinks from our Site to another site, please note that we are not responsible for and have no control over their privacy policies and practices.

How Long We Store Personal Data

User data will be stored until the purpose of the data collected has been achieved. You will be notified if your data is kept for longer than this period.

How We Protect Your Personal Data

We use the strongest available browser encryption and store all data on servers in secure facilities. Data is only accessible to our employees, who are bound by strict confidentiality agreements — a breach of which would result in termination.

While we take all reasonable precautions to ensure user data is secure, the internet as a whole can be insecure at times and we are unable to guarantee security beyond what is reasonably practical.

Children

We do not knowingly collect or use personal data from children under 16 years of age. If we learn that we have collected such data, it will be deleted as soon as possible. A parent or guardian may contact our privacy officer if a child under 16 has provided us with personal data.

Do Not Track Notice

Do Not Track (“DNT”) is a privacy preference you can set in certain web browsers. We respond to browser-initiated DNT signals. If we receive a DNT signal indicating a user does not wish to be tracked, we will not track that user.

How to Opt Out

You can opt out of the use of your personal data for marketing emails at any time by clicking “Unsubscribe from this list” at the bottom of any marketing email we send.

Cookie Policy

A cookie is a small file stored on a user’s hard drive by a website. Its purpose is to collect data relating to browsing habits. You can choose to be notified each time a cookie is transmitted, or disable cookies entirely in your browser — though this may decrease the quality of your user experience.

Analytical cookies allow us to improve the design and functionality of our Site by collecting data on how you access it — for example, the content you access and how long you stay on our Site.

Third-Party Cookies

When amended, we will update the effective date at the top of this page. We recommend users periodically review our Privacy Policy. Where necessary, we may notify users by email of any changes.
