Some technology providers, including Google, may process data in countries outside the European Economic Area.

Where such a transfer takes place, safeguards required by applicable data-protection law are used, such as an adequacy decision, participation in a recognised data-protection framework or approved Standard Contractual Clauses.

If a professional relationship is established, certain information may be retained for longer where necessary to provide the service, comply with legal obligations or establish, exercise or defend legal claims.

Technical and security logs are retained only for as long as reasonably necessary. Google Analytics data is retained according to the retention settings active within the service.

11. Data Security

Appropriate technical and organisational measures are used to protect personal data against loss, unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure or destruction.
