At times we may request that you voluntarily supply us with personal information, such as your name & surname, email address, postal address, contact number e.t.c for purposes such as corresponding with you, registering at a site, making a purchase, or participating in an online survey or competition.

But we do not link this information to anything personally identifiable. The only other information automatically provided to us is the type of computer and operating system you are using.

10. Authorised third parties, including external service providers, with permitted access to your information are specifically required to apply appropriate security measures to appropriate technical and organisational security measures that may be necessary to safeguard the personal data being processed from unauthorised or accidental disclosure, loss or destruction and from any unlawful forms of processing.
