What personal data we collect and why we collect it

When you contact us by email or via the contact form on the website, we will collect your name, email address and contact number so that we can process your inquiry. When you contact us via a contact form, we also need to collect your anonymised IP address to help prevent spam.

Embedded content from other websites

This site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website. If you do not accept cookies, this functionality might not work. Specifically for this website, you may not see new Instagram images.

Who we share your data with

We will not share your personal information with third parties for marketing purposes. Personal information will only be given to a third party when we are legally obliged to do so.

Anonymous data derived from cookies may be shared with third parties, but only for technical purposes, not marketing ones.

Marketing

We will not contact you for marketing purposes by email, phone or text message unless you have given your prior consent. You can change your marketing preferences at any time by contacting us.

How long we retain your data

Personal data may be required for legal purposes and record keeping. All data will only be stored for as long as it is legally required.

What rights you have over your data

You can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes. If you are not satisfied with our response or do not believe we are processing your personal data in accordance with the law, you can complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO).
