Analytics and search engine providers who assist us in the improvement and optimisation of the Websites.
Our insurers and insurance brokers where required in order for us to be able to obtain insurance against risks we face in running our business. They may retain this information for the purpose of ongoing risk assessment and insurance broking and underwriting services.

We may also share the information we collect where we are legally obliged to do so, for example, to comply with a court order.

SECURITY OF YOUR INFORMATION

Information provided through the Websites is stored on our secure servers or those of any third party we engage to provide our IT platform, and is encrypted using standard technology.

We will then either securely delete it or anonymise it so that it cannot be linked back to you.

YOUR INFORMATION

It is very important to us that all the information we hold about you remains accurate and up to date to reduce the risk of a misunderstanding. We need your help in doing so. If you have an online account with us, please ensure that the information (for example, contact information) you provide to us through that account remains accurate and up to date.
