4. International Data Transfers
As a UK-based company, your data will primarily be stored and processed in the United Kingdom. If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), please note that the UK benefits from an "adequacy decision" from the European Commission. This means that data transfers between the EEA and the UK are legally safeguarded and fully compliant with EU GDPR standards. Where we use third-party service providers outside the UK/EEA, we ensure suitable safeguards (such as Standard Contractual Clauses) are firmly in place.
5. Data Security
We have instituted appropriate technical and organizational security measures to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used, accessed in an unauthorized way, altered, or disclosed.
6. Data Retention
We will only retain your personal data for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, regulatory, tax, accounting, or reporting requirements. By UK law, we are required to keep basic information about our customers for tax purposes for a specific number of years after they cease being customers.
