Under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), we rely on the following legal bases:
- Performance of a contract: to provide the services you have signed up for.

- Consent: for certain activities such as marketing communications and non-essential cookies, which you may withdraw at any time.

- Legal requirements: where required by law, regulation, or valid legal process.
- Business transfers: in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, subject to this Policy.
- With your consent: where you have explicitly agreed.
7. International data transfers
Some of our service providers may process data outside the European Economic Area (EEA). Where this occurs, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place, such as Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the European Commission, to protect your data in line with GDPR.
8. Data retention
We retain your personal data only for as long as necessary to provide our services, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.
