How do we protect your data?
We take the security of your data seriously. We have internal policies and controls in place to try to ensure that your data is not lost, accidentally destroyed, misused or disclosed, and is not accessed except by our employees in the performance of their duties.
Where we engage third parties to process personal data on our behalf, they do so on the basis of clear instructions, are under a duty of confidentiality and are obliged to implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to ensure the security of data.
How long do we keep your data?
Where we are holding your data for the fulfilment of products and events, we will hold your personal data for a period of 5 years, following your purchase or attendance at an event, after which it will be deleted.
