This Policy will inform you as to how we will look after your personal data when you interact with us, including visiting our Websites. It also tells you about your rights in relation to your personal data.
ACCEPTANCE OF PRIVACY POLICY

We reserve the right to make changes to this Policy at any time. If we decide to change our Policy, we will post those changes on our Websites so our users are aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances, if any, we disclose it.
If you do not agree with this Policy, please do not use our Websites. Your continued use of our Websites following posting of changes to these terms will mean you accept those changes.
WHAT IS PERSONAL DATA AND WHO IS RESPONSIBLE FOR LOOKING AFTER MY PERSONAL DATA?
Personal data is any information about an identifiable individual.

Finally, we may receive contact details or other information about you from publicly and commercially available sources, which we may combine with other information we receive from or about you.

However, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be entirely secure. As a result, while we always use all reasonable efforts to protect your personal data, we cannot guarantee the security of your information and the submission of data is thus at your own risk.
