Information that can be used to identify an individual is considered personal information. This includes your personal information (such as your name, address, and date of birth), your devices, payment information, and even how you use a website or online service.
In the event our site contains links to third-party sites and services, please be aware that those sites and services have their own privacy policies. After following a link to any third-party content, you should read their posted privacy policy information about how they collect and use personal information. This Privacy Policy does not apply to any of your activities after you leave our site.
This policy goes into effect on January 7 2022.
Updated last on 5 January 2022
The information we collect falls into two categories: “information voluntarily provided” and “information automatically collected.”
When using or participating in any of our services or promotions, you intentionally and actively give us with information that we refer to as “voluntary submissions.”
The term “automatically collected” refers to any information transmitted automatically by your devices when you access our products and services.
When you visit our website, our servers may automatically log the standard data provided by your web browser. It may include your device’s Internet Protocol (IP) address, your browser type and version, the pages you visit, the time and date of your visit, the time spent on each page, and other details about your visit.
In addition, if you encounter certain difficulties while using the site, we may automatically gather information about the error and its occurrence. This data may contain technical information about your equipment, what you were attempting to accomplish when the issue occurred, and other relevant technical information. You could or might not receive notification of such errors, even in the instant they occur, that they have occurred or the nature of the fault.
Please be aware that while this information may not be personally identifying by itself, it may be possible to combine it with other data to personally identify individual persons.
When you visit our website or interact with our services, we may automatically collect data about your device, such as:
The information we collect may depend on the settings of your device and software. We advise that you consult the policies of your device maker or software supplier to see what information they make available to us.
We may collect personal information – for example, when you subscribe to our newsletter or when you contact us — which may contain one or more of the following: name, e-mail address, mailing address, phone number.
We only collect and use your personal information when we have a legitimate reason for doing so. In which instance, we only collect personal information that is reasonably necessary to provide our services to you.

We may collect, retain, use, and disclose information for the following purposes, and we will not further handle personal information in a manner that is incompatible with these purposes:
We may combine voluntarily submitted and automatically gathered personal data with general information or research data obtained from other reputable sources. If you consent to our accessing your social media profiles, for instance, we may combine information derived from such profiles with information received directly from you in order to enhance your experience with our site and services, such as by providing you with more personalized content.
When we collect and process personally identifiable information, and for as long as we possess it, we will protect it using commercially reasonable means against loss, theft, and unauthorized access, disclosure, copying, use, and alteration.
No method of electronic transmission or storage is 100% safe, and no one can guarantee the security of all transmitted or stored data.
You are responsible for selecting a password and establishing its overall security strength, ensuring the safety of your personal information within our services. Ensure, for instance, that your personal information is not visible to the public on our site.
We keep your personal information only for as long as we need to. This time period may depend on what we are using your information for, in accordance with this privacy policy. For example, if you have provided us with personal information such as an email address when contacting us about a specific enquiry, we may retain this information for the duration of your enquiry remaining open as well as for our own records so we may effectively address similar enquiries in future. If your personal information is no longer required for this purpose, we will delete it or make it anonymous by removing all details that identify you.
We may, however, store your personal information if necessary to comply with a legal, accounting, or reporting need, or for archival reasons in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes, or statistical purposes.
