Last updated: 20 May 2026
Introduction
We are committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Notice sets out our privacy practices and explains how we collect, process, hold and store (collectively referred to as 'handle') your personal data, and with whom we share it.
The information we handle is only that which is required to deliver the services you request. Except as set out in this Privacy Notice, we do not supply your data to any other company for marketing purposes.
We are registered as a data controller with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO), the UK's independent body set up to uphold information rights. As a data controller, we are required to comply with UK data protection law — including the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018 — when processing personal information.
You may browse our website without identifying yourself or providing any personal information. We only collect information required to deliver site functionality, requested information, or our services.
By using our services, you consent to the handling of your data in line with this Privacy Notice. This Notice is reviewed regularly and may be updated. We will notify you by email of any changes and provide a copy of the updated Notice.
