- Essential Cookies: These are necessary for the operation of our website, enabling core functionalities like security, network management, and accessibility.
- Analytical/Performance Cookies: These allow us to recognise and count the number of visitors and see how visitors move around our website when they are using it. This helps us improve the way our website works.

Data Retention
We retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. Our retention periods are determined based on the type of data, the purpose of processing, and applicable legal and regulatory obligations.
Typically, we will retain your account information for a period after your account is closed to comply with our legal obligations, such as anti-money laundering regulations and tax laws. This period is usually a minimum of five years from the date of the last transaction or account closure, but may vary depending on jurisdiction and specific regulatory requirements.
International Data Transfers
Your personal data may be transferred to, and stored at, a destination outside the European Economic Area (EEA) or your country of residence. This may occur if our service providers or servers are located in those countries. When we transfer your personal data outside the EEA, we ensure a similar degree of protection is afforded to it by ensuring at least one of the following safeguards is implemented:
- We will only transfer your personal data to countries that have been deemed to provide an adequate level of protection for personal data by the European Commission.
- Where we use certain service providers, we may use specific contracts approved by the European Commission which give personal data the same protection it has in Europe.
- Where we use providers based in the US, we may transfer data to them if they are part of the Privacy Shield which requires them to provide similar protection to personal data shared between the Europe and the US.
