International data transfers occur only to jurisdictions with adequate privacy protections or through appropriate safeguards such as standard contractual clauses.
Data Security and Retention
We implement comprehensive security measures to protect your personal information from unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure or destruction.

Access to personal data is restricted to authorised personnel who require the information to perform their duties.
Regular security audits, penetration testing and vulnerability assessments ensure our systems remain resilient against emerging threats. Firewalls, intrusion detection systems and anti-malware software provide multiple layers of protection. Employee training programmes maintain awareness of privacy obligations and data handling best practices throughout our organisation.

Account details and transaction records are maintained for seven years following account closure to comply with financial regulations and licensing obligations. Marketing preferences are retained until you withdraw consent or request deletion. Technical data may be anonymised and retained indefinitely for statistical analysis and service improvement.
