6. Overseas disclosure

Where personal information is disclosed overseas, we take reasonable steps to ensure it is handled in a way that is consistent with this policy and applicable UK data protection requirements.

7. Security and retention

We use reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal information, including encrypted website connections (SSL/TLS), access controls, and secure password storage.

We keep personal information for as long as needed to fulfil the purpose it was collected for, meet legal, tax and accounting requirements, resolve disputes, and maintain accurate business records. When information is no longer required, we take reasonable steps to destroy or de-identify it.
