We recognise the trust you are placing in us through your dealings with us and we do everything we can to maintain that trust. Our staff are employed on the basis that they will protect information about you. This is our personal standard. Under law your rights to privacy are also protected.

We will take all reasonable steps to protect the personal information we hold from misuse, loss, or unauthorised access. You acknowledge however that the security of online transactions and communications sent by electronic means or post cannot be guaranteed. You provide information to us at your own risk.
You further acknowledge that we are not responsible for the privacy or security practices of any third party, including third parties that we disclose your personal information to in accordance with this policy.
