Cookies
Our website may use cookies to improve performance, remember basic preferences, and understand how visitors use the site.
You can disable cookies through your browser settings. However, some parts of the website may not work properly if cookies are turned off. UK GDPR guidance says privacy notices should clearly explain cookies and other tracking tools in simple language.
Third-Party Services
We may use third-party services such as analytics tools, advertising services, or embedded content from other websites.
These third parties may collect information according to their own privacy policies. We recommend reading those policies as well. If we use analytics or advertising tools, we will follow the provider’s privacy requirements and obtain consent where required.

We do not sell your personal information.
We may share information only when needed:

- In case of a business transfer, such as a merger or sale
Data Retention
We keep personal information only for as long as it is needed for the purpose it was collected for, or as required by law. If we do not use a fixed retention period, we use criteria such as the purpose of the data, legal needs, and website management needs to decide how long to keep it.
Data Security
We take reasonable steps to protect your information. However, no method of online storage or transmission is 100% secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

- Ask us to correct inaccurate data
- Ask us to delete your data
- Restrict or object to certain uses of your data
