If you contact us, we may keep a record of that correspondence.
During the course of our remit and instructions from you, we may hold personal data which you supply to us, including contact details.
Where do 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”).

We will take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that your data is treated securely and in accordance with this privacy policy.
All information you provide to us is stored on our secure servers. Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet is not always completely secure. We cannot therefore guarantee the security of your data transmitted to our website and 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.
Hard copy data is stored for a minimum of 6 years in a secured off-site storage facility.
