How Long We Store Personal Data
We try to retain your personal information for only as long as is necessary for the purpose for which

take steps to anonymise it so you can no longer be identified from it.

How We Protect Your Personal Data
We use reasonable organisational, technical, and administrative measures and security safeguards

disclosure is made to comply with applicable data protection and privacy laws. If a third party is
given access to personal information, we take reasonable steps to ensure that the information is
held securely and used only for the purpose of providing the relevant service or activity.
Unfortunately, no data transmission over the internet or data storage system can be guaranteed to
be 100% secure. 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.
