We also have CCTV in some of our offices for the purpose of crime prevention and where this is used, we will display appropriate notices.

Our Security and Data Retention Measures The Personal Information you provide to us will be transferred to and stored on our servers in the UK and we take steps to protect your Personal Information from unauthorised access and against unlawful processing, accidental loss, destruction and damage. We will only keep your Personal Information for as long as we reasonably require it and, in any event, only for as long as we have a legal basis, right or obligation to keep it. Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure and, although we will take steps to protect your Personal Information, we cannot guarantee the security of your Personal Information transmitted via the Websites; any transmission is therefore at your own risk. To protect your personal information from unauthorised access and use, we apply organisational and technical security measures in accordance with Data Protection Legislation. These measures include computer safeguards and secured files and buildings. We will notify you of any material personal data breaches affecting you in accordance with the requirements of Data Protection Legislation. 7. International Transfers In processing your Personal Information, it may be necessary for us to transfer your Personal Information outside the UK and/or European Economic Area ("EEA"). It may also be accessed by staff operating outside the UK and/or EEA who work for us or for one of our suppliers or group companies. This includes staff engaged in, among other things, the provision of support services. We will take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that your Personal Information is treated securely and in accordance with this Policy and the Data Protection Legislation when it is processed in, or otherwise accessed from, a location outside the UK and/or EEA. We and any of our delegates and service providers will not transfer Personal Information to a country outside of the UK and/or EEA unless we have your explicit consent to do so or that country (i) ensures an adequate level of data protection and appropriate safeguards are in place; or (ii) relies on one of the derogations provided under the Data Protection Legislation. In the UK, the Secretary of State for the Department for Digital Culture, Media and Sport and the Information Commissioner have prepared a list of countries that are deemed to provide an adequate level of data protection which to date includes the EEA countries, Gibraltar, Andorra, Argentina, Guernsey, the Isle of Man, Israel, Jersey, New Zealand, Switzerland, Uruguay, Japan (private sector organisations only) and Canada (commercial organisations only). The European Commission has done the same and to date, its list includes Andorra, Argentina, Guernsey, the Isle of Man, Israel, Jersey, New Zealand, Switzerland, Uruguay, Japan (privatesector organisations only) and Canada (commercial organisations only). Further countries may be added to these lists by the relevant regulatory body at any time. If a third country does not provide an adequate level of data protection then we, or any of our delegates and service providers will ensure it puts in place appropriate safeguards such as the standardised contractual clauses for data transfers approved by the relevant regulatory body in accordance with the Data Protection Legislation. Where any transfer takes place under a written contract, any individual whose data is transferred has the right to request a copy of that contract and may do so by contacting us using the details below. By submitting your Personal Information to us, you acknowledge this transfer, storing or processing of your Personal Information. 8. Your Rights You have the right to ask us not to process your Personal Information for marketing or research purposes. If you have given us your express consent, or where we otherwise have the right to do so, we may use your Personal Information for marketing purposes. You can exercise the right to prevent such processing at any time by contacting us using the details set out at section 12 below. You are entitled to know some details about the Personal Information we hold about you and to ask us to: (a) make any changes to ensure that any Personal Information we hold about you is accurate and up to date; (b) erase or stop processing any Personal Information we hold about you where there is no longer a legal ground for us to hold it; or (c) in some circumstances, transfer any information we hold about you to a specified third party.
