WHERE WE STORE YOUR PERSONAL
DATA
The data that we collect from you
may be transferred to, and stored at, a
destination outside the European Economic Area
("EEA"). It may also be processed by staff
operating outside the EEA who work for us or for
one of our suppliers. Such staff maybe engaged
in, among other things, the fulfilment of your
order, the processing of your payment details
and the provision of support services. By
submitting your personal data, you agree to this
transfer, storing or processing. We will take
all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that
your data is treated securely and in accordance
with this privacy policy.
Where we have given
you (or where you have chosen) a password, which
enables you to access certain parts of our site,
you are responsible for keeping this password
confidential. We ask you not to share a password
with anyone.
Unfortunately, the transmission
of information via the internet is not
completely secure. Although we will do our best
to protect your personal data, we cannot
guarantee the security of your data transmitted
to our site; any transmission is at your own
risk. Once we have received your information, we
will use strict procedures and security features
to try to prevent unauthorised access.
