WHAT PERSONAL INFORMATION MEANS
‘Personal Information’ refers to any information or opinion that identifies you or could reasonably identify you. It may be true or not.
‘Sensitive Information’ is a special category of personal data. This includes details about your race, ethnic origin, political or religious beliefs, memberships, sexual orientation, criminal history, health, genetics, and biometric data used for identification.

Information collected may include your name, contact details, opinions on our services, or records of your enquiries and complaints.
If you engage with us via social platforms, you allow us to receive details from those platforms, such as your profile information and interactions with our site.
We also use cookies and similar technologies. Cookies are small files stored on your device to enhance your experience.

HOW WE STORE YOUR INFORMATION
Your data is primarily stored in digital systems and databases operated by us or trusted service providers, including cloud platforms.
We use physical, electronic, and administrative safeguards to protect against misuse, loss, or unauthorised access. When personal information is no longer needed, we take reasonable steps to destroy or de-identify it.
HOW WE SHARE YOUR INFORMATION
We may share your personal information with:

We do not sell your personal information.
We may also disclose information when required or authorised by law, with your consent (express or reasonably implied), to data processors needed to provide our services, or as part of a business restructure or sale.
ACCESS AND CORRECTION
You may request access to or correction of the personal information we hold about you by contacting us directly. There may be circumstances where we are not required to provide access, and we will let you know if these apply.
There is no fee for access requests, but we may charge reasonable costs (e.g., for photocopying large volumes). We aim to respond within a reasonable time and ensure your information remains accurate and current.
If you use a client portal, you may also update some of your information directly.
