Your Rights

Your privacy is very important to Us. We understand you want to remain in control of your personal information and that We must earn and retain your trust.

‘personal data’ or ‘personal information’ means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (also known as the ‘data subject’); an identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person.

In short, personal information includes information that is attributable to a specific individual, such as name, address, telephone number, email address and payment details, as well as other information that may be used, alone or together with other data, to identify a person.

We have created this privacy statement to show our commitment to the responsible handling and protection of your personal information. We can assure you that we keep your information confidential and do not sell or rent our customers’ personal information to third parties. We will only disclose your personal data to third parties as explained in this Privacy Policy, or where we are subject to a legal obligation or public duty to disclose such data. Whenever we have a legal obligation to do so, we may also share your personal data with authorities.

This Privacy Policy sets out Our policies regarding the collection, utilisation and protection of the personal information of those using the Website. It also serves to inform you, as data subject, of your rights pursuant to data protection law. In brief, you are entitled to the following rights and remedies:

  • Access to your personal data – We are happy to provide you with access to the personal information we process about you. However, We may need to verify your identity prior to doing so. We may ask you for proof of identity, as well as sufficient information about your interactions with us so that we can locate the relevant data. Please contact us on to exercise your right in this manner.
  • Rectification of your personal data – It is important that the personal data we hold about you is accurate and current. If at any time during the term of our business relationship you realise that certain data we hold about you is not accurate or up-to-date, We kindly ask you to contact us to correct such data. We may ask for further documentation from you to verify certain details, if this is necessary. Please contact Us on to exercise your right in this manner.
  • Erasure of your personal data – As a data subject, you have a right to request the erasure of your personal data (the right to be forgotten). However, this right is not absolute, and so it may not always be possible for us to erase your data immediately as we are subject to certain legal obligations which may prevent us from doing so. We will always inform you when we are unable to process your request for such reasons. Please contact us on to exercise your right in this manner.
  • Restriction of processing your personal data – This means that you may ask Us to suspend the processing of your personal data in the following situations: (a) if you want Us to ensure the data’s accuracy, (b) where we are using your data unlawfully, but you do not wish for Us to erase it, (c) where you need Us to hold on to your data even when We no longer need it, as you may need it to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims, or (d) where you have objected to Our use of your data, but we need to verify whether We have any overriding legitimate grounds to use it. Please contact us on to exercise your right in this manner.
  • Objection to process your personal data – Where we rely on our legitimate interest (or those of a third party) to process your personal data, and you wish to object to Us processing your data on this ground as you feel it impacts on your fundamental right and freedoms, you may exercise your right to object to the processing. The right to object to processing may also be exercised where We are processing your data for direct marketing purposes. Please contact us on to exercise your right in this manner.
  • Right to data portability – You may request us to transfer your personal data to you or another third party, in limited circumstances. We will provide to you, or a third party of your choice, your personal data in an easily readable format. Please contact us on to exercise your right in this manner.
  • Marketing and promotional material – As our customer and user of the Website, you have the choice to opt-in to receive updates from us and promotional material, to keep you updated on our latest products and services that may be of interest to you. Where we rely on your consent to process such personal data, you may withdraw your consent at any time. Please contact us on to exercise your right in this manner.
  • Right to file a complaint– If you are not satisfied with the way we are managing your personal data, it is your right to make a complaint at any time to a data protection authority of your choice. We would, however, appreciate the chance to deal with any concerns you may have before you approach such an authority. Send us an email with any concerns you may have, and we will do our utmost to address your concerns in a satisfactory manner.

You may also request, free of charge, information on the scope, origin and recipients of the stored data as well as the purpose of storage.

There are however exceptions to these rights. For example, We may deny access to your personal data in certain circumstances if making the data available would reveal personal information about another person or if We may be legally prevented from disclosing such information. In addition, We may be able to retain data even if you withdraw your consent, where We are obliged by a legal requirement to process your data, such as the Anti Money Laundering legislation.

Transfers of Personal Data

Our partners or Data Processors may be based in countries which do not form part of the European Economic Area (‘EEA’). The data that we collect from you may therefore be transferred to, and stored at a destination outside the EEA. It may also be processed by employees located outside the EEA who work for us or for one of our suppliers.

  • 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 (‘Adequacy Decision’);
  • Where such Adequacy Decision has not been issued we shall only transfer your personal data to certain service providers, where necessary, where we would have ensured that adequate safeguards, such as specific contracts approved by the European Commission, or which give personal data the same protection it has in Europe, have been put in place.
  • Where we use providers based in the United States of America, 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 European Union and the United States.
  • We do not trade your personal information to third parties for marketing purposes without your express consent.

Where We are not bound by any law to retain your data for a specified period of time, We will retain such data for the whole duration of Our business relationship, unless you exercise your right to erasure, in which case We are duty bound to erase your data. For more information on how long We keep your personal data, please contact Us on and We will provide the specific data retention terms for your jurisdiction.

We are committed to protecting our users’ information. Your password protects your user account, so you should use a unique and strong password, limit access to your computer and browser, and log out after having used the Website.

We have put in place appropriate security measures to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used, or accessed in an unauthorised way, altered or disclosed.

They will only process your personal data on our instructions, and are subject to a duty of confidentiality.

While we take data protection precautions, no security measures are completely secure, and we cannot fully guarantee the security of user information.
