4. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
Our website may use cookies, web beacons, and similar tracking technologies to collect and store information about your interactions with our site. Cookies may be "session" cookies (which expire when you close your browser) or "persistent" cookies (which remain on your device until deleted). You can configure your browser to refuse cookies or alert you when cookies are being sent; however, some parts of the website may not function properly without them.
5. Legal Basis for Processing
Where applicable law requires, we rely on legal bases such as your consent, the necessity of processing to perform a contract with you, compliance with a legal obligation, or our legitimate interests in operating and improving our services, provided those interests are not overridden by your data protection rights.

- Regulatory authorities or law enforcement, where required by applicable law
- A successor entity in the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets
7. Data Retention
We retain personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes outlined in this Policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law. Criteria used to determine retention periods include the nature of the information, the purpose of processing, and applicable legal or regulatory requirements.
8. Data Security
We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
9. International Data Transfers
Your information may be transferred to, stored, and processed in countries other than the one in which you reside. Where such transfers occur, we aim to ensure appropriate safeguards are in place consistent with applicable data protection law.
