Any payments you make to us via BACS, online bank transfer, PayPal or by cheque are also recorded by our bank (HSBC) - we do not control their own data collection and storage policies and security; however, we are happy with their policy at the time of writing this policy.

Security precautions in place to protect the loss, misuse or alteration of your information

When you give us personal information, we take steps to ensure that it’s treated securely. Any details sent to us using the contact forms on our website are encrypted and protected with 128 Bit encryption on SSL. When you are on a secure page, a suitable notification will be shown by your web browser (e.g. Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge).

Non-sensitive details (your email address etc.) may be transmitted normally over the Internet, and this can never be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of any information you transmit to us, and you do so at your own risk. Once we receive your information, we make our best effort to ensure its security on our systems.
