  • Legal obligation: processing necessary to comply with applicable law.

  • Government authorities, regulators, courts, law enforcement agencies, or other parties where disclosure is required by law or necessary to protect rights, safety, or property.
  • A successor or relevant parties in connection with a business reorganisation, merger, transfer, or sale, subject to applicable law.

Where service providers process personal data on our behalf, we take steps designed to require them to protect it and use it only in accordance with our instructions and applicable law.

6. International Data Transfers

Our service providers or business operations may involve processing personal data in countries outside the country where you are located. Where applicable law requires safeguards for an international transfer, we will take steps intended to provide an appropriate level of protection, such as using legally recognised transfer mechanisms or relying on another lawful transfer basis.

You may contact us using the details in Section 13 to request further information about applicable transfer safeguards, subject to legal restrictions.

7. Data Retention

We retain personal data only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including to provide our services, meet legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements.

Order and transaction records are retained for 6 years for tax and accounting purposes. Other personal data is retained for the period reasonably necessary for the relevant purpose, subject to applicable legal requirements.

The Website may use cookies and similar technologies to support its operation, remember preferences, understand Website usage, and, where applicable, support marketing activities. Some cookies may be set by third-party service providers.

You may be able to control cookies through your browser settings and, where available, the cookie settings presented on the Website. Disabling certain cookies may affect Website functionality. Where consent is required for non-essential cookies, we will seek it before using them.
