What Is Personal Information and Why We Collect It
Personal information is data that identifies an individual. This may include names, contact details, billing information, and more.
We collect personal information through various methods such as correspondence, online forms, purchases, cookies, and third-party platforms.
This information is primarily collected to deliver our services, conduct marketing, process transactions, and improve user experience. We may use this information for secondary purposes that align with your reasonable expectations.
Marketing
Marketing materials may be sent to you if you have opted in. You can unsubscribe at any time. Occasionally, surveys or research may also be conducted to improve our offerings.
Sensitive Information Sensitive information (e.g. health data, political beliefs) is only collected and used with your consent or where legally required.
Third Parties We typically collect personal information directly from you. However, third-party sources may sometimes be used. When this happens, we’ll take reasonable steps to make you aware of the data collected.
Disclosure of Personal Information
We may disclose your personal information to:
- Our employees and advisers
- Law enforcement
- Fraud-checking agencies
- Associated third-party service providers
- As otherwise required or permitted by law
- Some anonymised data may be shared with service providers for analytics, marketing, or IT support.
Overseas Disclosure
We may use cloud-based or international service providers, meaning some personal data could be stored or processed overseas. We work only with reputable organisations.
Security of Personal Information Your personal data is stored securely. When no longer needed, we’ll destroy or de-identify it unless legally required to retain it.
Accessing Your Information
You can request access to your information or correct inaccuracies. We may request identification before providing access. In some circumstances, access may be refused (e.g., legal or safety concerns).

GDPR Compliance
While we do not target EU users, we aim to respect GDPR standards where applicable. EU users may request access, correction, deletion, and data transfer.
