It is important that you read this Notice together with any other privacy policy or privacy notice we may provide on specific occasions when we are collecting or processing Personal Data about you so that you are fully aware of how and why we are using your data. This Notice supplements other notices and policies and is not intended to override them.

Data Security and Retention
Security of Your Personal Data
We take what we determine to be reasonable physical, technical and administrative security standards designed to protect the confidentiality, integrity and security of your Personal Data. We store information we receive about you in computer systems and databases operated either by us or our external service providers. We take steps to limit access controls and add encryption and anti-malware protections to your Personal Data as appropriate. We will collect and store Personal Data on your device using application data caches and browser cookies.
You also have an important role to play in protecting the security of your Personal Data, and you should take care about disclosing information, and how you protect your communications and devices. Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password that enables you to access certain parts of our website or applications, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential. We ask you not to share a password with anyone else.
Retention of Your Personal Data
We apply a general rule of keeping Personal Data only for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, including for the purpose of satisfying any legal, regulatory, tax, accounting or reporting requirements. We typically retain certain elements of your Personal Data for a period of time corresponding to a statute of limitation, for example to maintain an accurate record of your dealings with us, such as pursuant to a contract so that we can raise or defend a legal claim. In some circumstances we may retain Personal Data for other periods of time, for instance where we are required or permitted to do so in accordance with legal requirements, or if required to do so by a legal process, legal authority, or other governmental entity having authority to make the request, for so long as required. We may also retain your Personal Data for a longer period in the event of a complaint or if we reasonably believe there is a prospect of litigation in respect to our relationship with you.
In some circumstances, we may anonymize your Personal Data (so that it can no longer be associated with you) for research or statistical purposes, in which case we may retain this information indefinitely without further notice to you.
Where required by law we will take reasonable steps to destroy or de-identify your Personal Data when it is no longer needed for the purposes for which it was collected and/or the purposes for which you provided consent.
Minors’ Online Privacy
We do not direct our website or services to minors, and we do not knowingly collect Personal Data from minors (under 18, or as defined by local legal requirements).
