If you identify an error in this data or if you consider it to be incomplete or ambiguous, you can also ask us to correct, complete or clarify it.
You may also object to your data being used for marketing purposes or passed on to third parties for this purpose.
Finally, you may ask us to delete any personal data we hold about you. However, please note that we may keep a record of your data for archiving purposes (particularly where we are required to do so by law).

Subject to what is stated in this Privacy Policy or unless we have obtained your prior consent, we may share your personal data with employees of our company or our service providers (e.g. our web agencies who manage certain online operations on our behalf) and/or business partners for the purposes stated above and only to the extent necessary to perform their duties. They may contact you directly using the contact details you have provided to us.
Please note that we strictly require our service providers to use your personal data only to administer the services we ask them to provide. We also require our service providers to always act in accordance with applicable data protection laws and to pay particular attention to the confidentiality of such data.

WHERE DO WE STORE YOUR PERSONAL DATA?

Your personal data is stored either in our databases or in those of our service providers.
In some cases, and mainly for technical reasons, these databases may be stored on servers located outside the country (including outside the European Union) from which you originally entered the data.

IS YOUR PERSONAL DATA KEPT SECURE?

We aim to keep your personal data as safe and secure as possible at all times, and only for as long as is necessary for the purposes for which it is processed. To this end, we take appropriate physical, technical and organisational measures to prevent, as far as possible, any alteration, loss or unauthorised access to your data.
On our E-Commerce Media, we manage your payment information using methods that meet industry standards (such as PCI DSS).
