Data Protection and Security Measures

We implement robust technical and organisational security protocols to safeguard the confidentiality and secure storage of the information you entrust to us. Our commitment to data protection adheres strictly to the GDPR and the DPA, ensuring that your data is processed only per these regulations.

However, it is important to note that the security of information shared online cannot be guaranteed entirely. There is a potential risk that external entities may monitor, intercept, or access your information without our knowledge. By utilising our website, you acknowledge and accept the inherent security implications of transmitting information over the internet.

We explicitly disclaim responsibility for any potential harm resulting from these inherent risks unless we are proven to be negligent in our duty. Your continued use of our services implies your agreement with these terms and conditions.

GDPR Requirements

In compliance with GDPR requirements, when a data controller maintains an online presence, the WP29 recommends that the controller offer a layered privacy notice. This ensures that data subjects are presented with a clear overview of the available information, allowing them to access detailed information within the layers of the notice. The first layer, as per the Guidelines, should consistently include information on processing that has the most significant impact on the data subject and processing that may come as a surprise.

Regarding third-party processors, our meticulously chosen partners and service providers may handle personal information on our behalf. Specifically, in the realm of digital marketing services, we occasionally engage digital marketing agents to execute marketing activities on our behalf. This entails the compliant processing of personal information. 

Among our appointed data processors is Prospect Global Ltd, trading as Sopro (Reg. UK Co. 09648733). For further details, you can refer to Sopro's privacy policy at http://sopro.io. Sopro is registered with the ICO (Reg: ZA346877), and their Data Protection Officer can be contacted via email at dpo@sopro.io.
