7. International Data Transfers

Some of our external third-party service providers are based outside the UK or European Economic Area (EEA). Where we transfer personal data outside the UK/EEA, we ensure a similar degree of protection is afforded to it by implementing appropriate safeguards, such as standard contractual clauses approved by the UK Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) or the European Commission.

8. Data Retention

We will only retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.

To determine the appropriate retention period, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure, the purposes for which we process it, and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means.

In general, we retain customer account data for the duration of the contractual relationship plus 7 years thereafter.
