We review information and delete or anonymise it when it is no longer needed. Information may be retained for longer where required by law or connected with an ongoing dispute.

We use appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect personal information against unauthorised access, loss, misuse, alteration or disclosure.

Access should be limited to people who need the information for their work.

No website, email service or internet transmission can be guaranteed completely secure. Please contact us to agree an appropriate way to share particularly sensitive information.
