How Long We Store Personal Data 

User data will be stored until the purpose for which it was collected has been achieved. You will be notified if your data is kept longer than this period. 

 

How We Protect Your Data 

 

Encryption: Encrypting data at rest and in transit to scramble information if accessed by unauthorised parties. 

 

Strong passwords: Enforcing password policies that require a mix of upper/lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols and regularly changing passwords. 

 

Multi-factor authentication: Requiring users to provide additional verification beyond just a password for sensitive logins. 

 

Access controls: Limiting access to personal data based on user roles and job functions. 

 

Network security: Implementing firewalls and intrusion detection systems to monitor network traffic and prevent unauthorised access.

 

Data backups: Regularly backing up critical data to ensure recovery in case of data loss.

 

Privacy settings: Providing users with options to control what personal information is collected and shared on platforms. 

 

Anti-malware protection: Installing antivirus software to detect and prevent malicious software from accessing personal data. 

 

Data minimisation: Only the necessary personal data will be collected for the intended purpose. 

 

Secure disposal: Properly erasing data from old devices before disposal to prevent unauthorised access. 

 

User education: Providing clear guidelines and training to users on protecting their personal information online.

 

While we take all reasonable precautions to ensure that user data is secure and that users are protected, there always remains the risk of harm. The Internet as a whole can be insecure at times and therefore we are unable to guarantee the security of user data beyond what is reasonably practical. However, we are committed to maintaining the highest standards of data security to protect your information and earn your trust.

7. Right to object.
