How do we protect the data?

 

The hosting service for our digital assets provides us with the online platform through which we can offer our services to you. Your data may be stored through our hosting provider's data storage, databases and general applications. It stores your data on secure servers behind a firewall and it offers secure HTTPS access to most areas of its services.

 

Regardless of the measures and efforts taken by us and our hosting provider, we cannot and do not guarantee absolute protection or security of the data that you upload, post or otherwise share with us or others.

For this reason, we would like to ask you, if possible, not to provide us with any confidential information the disclosure of which you believe could cause significant or lasting harm to you. Additionally, because email and instant messaging are not considered secure forms of communication, we ask that you do not share any confidential information through any of these communication channels.

​

• the use of your personal data is necessary to comply with relevant legal or regulatory obligations, or

• the use of your personal information is necessary to support our legitimate business interests (provided that we do so at all times in a manner that is proportionate and respects your privacy rights).

If you are based in the EEA, your personal data will only be transferred to locations outside the EEA if we are satisfied that an adequate or comparable level of protection of personal data exists. We will take appropriate steps to ensure that we have appropriate contractual arrangements in place with our third parties to ensure that appropriate security measures are in place so that the risk of unlawful use, alteration, deletion, loss or theft of your personal data is minimized and that such third parties will at all times act in accordance with applicable laws.
