We use cookies and similar technologies to keep our website secure, improve performance, and understand how visitors use our services. You can manage cookie preferences in your browser settings and through any cookie controls we make available on the website.

What is our lawful basis for processing your personal data?

Whenever we process your personal data we ensure that we:

  • process it lawfully, fairly and in a transparent manner;
  • collect it only for valid purposes that we have clearly explained to you and not use it in any incompatible way;
  • hold accurate records and, where possible, keep your personal data up to date;
  • keep it only as long as necessary for the purposes we have told you about;
  • keep it safe and secure to limit the potential of a personal data breach.

We only use your personal data for the purposes for which we collected it. Depending on the circumstances, our lawful basis under the Gibraltar GDPR includes: performance of a contract with you, compliance with legal obligations, our legitimate interests (for example website security, fraud prevention, and service improvement), and your consent where required.

We regularly review our processing activities to ensure they remain necessary, proportionate, and compliant with applicable data protection law.

Do we transfer your personal data internationally?

We may transfer personal data outside Gibraltar where necessary for service delivery, for example when using trusted service providers (such as hosting, communications, or payment platforms) or where required by law.

Where we do this, we take reasonable steps to ensure appropriate safeguards are in place, including:

  • transfers to jurisdictions with adequate data protection standards; or
  • contractual and technical safeguards designed to protect your personal data.

In all cases, we aim to ensure your personal data receives a level of protection consistent with the Gibraltar GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2004.

How do you keep my information safe and secure?

Under the Data Protection Act 2004 and the Gibraltar GDPR, strict principles govern our use of personal data and our duty to ensure it is kept safe and secure.

We have appropriate security measures in place (such as password protection and access restrictions) to prevent personal data from being accidentally lost, used or accessed in an unauthorised way, altered or disclosed. We also use encryption for the collection or transfer of sensitive personal data, such as credit card details when making a payment.

All records are restricted so that only individuals with a need to know can access information. This may be through the use of technology or other environmental safeguards.

Our employees and authorised contractors are bound by confidentiality obligations. Personal data is only used for legitimate business purposes and lawful processing activities.

You should never disclose your password or login credentials to anyone. If you believe that someone has logged in with your credentials, please notify us by contacting our support team.

Who do you share my information with?

We do not sell your personal data. We may share your data with trusted third parties where necessary to provide our services, including payment processors, delivery providers, IT hosting/support providers, and professional advisers.

We may also disclose information where required to comply with legal obligations, enforce our terms, protect our rights, or assist with fraud prevention and criminal investigations.

Where third-party processing takes place, we require appropriate contractual, technical, and organisational safeguards to protect your personal data.

How long do you keep my information?

We retain personal data only for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfil the purposes for which we collected it, including legal, regulatory, tax, accounting or reporting requirements.

Support requests, incidents, and complaints are retained for as long as necessary to deal with your query and for a reasonable period afterwards for record-keeping and legal purposes.

Retention periods may be extended if we reasonably believe that there is a prospect of litigation in respect of our relationship with you.

To determine retention periods, 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 personal data and whether those purposes can be achieved by other means, and any applicable legal or regulatory requirements.

If you want to deactivate your account, please contact our support team. Deactivating your account means you can no longer access account features unless reactivated.

Where we are legally required to keep certain records (for example accounting, tax, anti-fraud, or dispute records), we will retain those records for the required period even if your account is deactivated.

What privacy rights do I have?

Under data protection law, you have rights in relation to the personal data that we hold about you. You may exercise these rights at any time by contacting us using the details at the end of this Privacy Policy.

It may not always be possible to agree to your request if keeping the record is of significant importance. If this is the case, we will explain the reason to you.

You have the right to:

  • ask us to confirm whether we hold your personal data and request a copy (Data Subject Access Request or DSAR);
  • correct inaccuracies in your personal data and complete incomplete records, including by updating your account settings;
  • delete your personal data where possible in the specific circumstances;
  • ask us to restrict or object to processing in certain circumstances, including processing based on legitimate interests;
  • ask for portability of personal data you have provided to us, where applicable;
  • withdraw consent at any time where processing is based on your consent.
How can I contact you with any questions or concerns?

We aim to meet high standards when collecting and using personal data. We encourage people to bring questions and concerns to our attention and take complaints seriously.
