8. How your personal information is kept
Your personal information will be kept secure at all times.
Your personal information may be held at our offices, at third party agencies and service providers, and by our representatives and those agents used by us.
Some of your data will be held outside the UK/EEA. Please see the provisions set out in Paragraph 9 below for more information.
We operate various security measures in order to prevent the loss of, or unauthorised access to, your personal information. We restrict access to your personal information to those with a genuine business need to access it, and we have procedures in place to deal with any suspected data security breach. We will notify you, and any applicable regulator, of a suspected data security breach where we are legally required to do so.
We will only retain your personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, regulatory, tax, accounting or reporting requirements. Please note, that different periods for keeping your personal information will apply depending upon the type of data being retained and the purpose of its retention.
Where your personal information is retained after we have finished providing the Service to you, or where the contract with you has ended in any other way, then this will generally be for one of the following reasons:
To determine the appropriate retention period for personal information, we consider the amount, nature and sensitivity of the personal information, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure of your personal information, the purposes for which we process your personal information and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal, regulatory, tax, accounting or other requirements.
We generally retain information for period of 6 years from the end of the services for the reasons stated above however some information may be retained for a lesser period or a longer period depending on the nature of the information. For example we will delete sensitive personal information as soon after the end of the services unless it is required to be retained for any of the purposes stated above and we may retain transactional information for longer than 6 years as evidence of e-commerce transaction when detailing with possible Tax queries that the appropriate tax authorities may raise after the 6 year period.
We will irretrievably delete and/or anonymise any personal information which it is no longer necessary for us to retain.
9. Transferring your data out of the UK and EEA
When you purchase goods or a services from us by virtue of a subscription account the transaction will be handled by Apple (Apple devices) or Google (Android devices) and your information will be processed by them. Apple or Google may transfer your information to its group companies or third party sub processors. For more information on how data transfers comply with the GDPR, see Google’s Privacy Policy https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en-gb and Apple’s Privacy Policy https://www.apple.com/uk/privacy/.
In order for us to provide you with the Service, it may be necessary for us to share your personal information with those outside the UK/EEA where, for example, those persons have offices outside the UK/EEA, are based outside the UK/EEA, where electronic services and resources are based outside the UK/EEA, or where there is an international element to the instructions we have received from you. Where this is the case, special rules apply to the protection of your data.
We may also need to transfer your personal information to countries that have not been assessed by the Secretary of State or, where the EU GDPR applies, by the European Commission as providing adequate protection. In such cases we will always take steps to ensure that, wherever possible, the transfer complies with data protection law, and that your personal information will be secure. We use standard data protection contract clauses which have been approved by the Information Commissioners Office or the European Commission as applicable.

These rights are exercisable without charge, and we are subject to specific time limits in terms of how quickly we must respond to you. Those rights are as follows:
Full details of these rights can be found in the UK/EU GDPR or by reference to guidance produced by the Information Commissioner’s Office.

We try to respond to all legitimate requests within one month. Occasionally it could take us longer than a month if your request is particularly complex or you have made a number of requests. In this case, we will notify you and keep you updated
11. Keeping your data secure
In order to ensure that data is kept secure, and to prevent there being any breach of confidentiality, we have put in place security measures which are intended to prevent your personal information from being accidentally lost or used or accessed unlawfully. Access to your personal information is restricted to those with a need to access it, and regard will be had to the need for confidentiality when that personal information is processed.
Our systems are subject to rigorous testing, and we are ISO 27001 certified, meaning that we observe industry standards for information security.
In the event that there is a suspected data security breach you will be notified. We will also inform the appropriate regulator (including the Information Commissioner’s Office) of a suspected data security breach, where we are legally required to do so.
