Privacy Policy
We are committed to protecting and respecting any personal information you share with us.
This statement describes what types of information we collect from you, how we use it, how we share it with others, how you can manage the information we hold and how you can contact us.
We will always give you the option not to receive marketing communications from us. We will never send you unsolicited ‘junk’ email or communications or share your data with anyone else who might.

The contents of this statement may change from time to time, so you may wish to check this page occasionally to ensure you are still happy to share your information with us. Where possible, we will also contact you directly to notify you of these changes.

You have the right to object to us sending you this information at any time

Vital interest
How do we share this information?
We do not sell your information to third parties. However, we may, from time to time, disclose your information to the following categories of companies or organisations to which we pass the responsibility to handle services on our behalf: direct marketing communications agencies and consultants, market research and market analytics service providers, our legal and other professional advisors.
We take steps to ensure that any third-party partners who handle your information comply with data protection legislation and protect your information just as we do. We only disclose the personal information necessary to provide the service they are undertaking on our behalf. We will aim to anonymise your information or use aggregated none specific data sets where ever possible.
Due to our business’s international nature, some instances may be where your information is processed or stored outside of the EU. In those instances, we will ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place for that transfer and storage required by applicable law.
There are circumstances where we share your information with our parent (or other companies within our Group) to fulfil orders, transactions, handle complaints or provide you with a service or information that you have requested.
How long do we keep your information for?
We will not hold your personal information in an identifiable format for any longer than is necessary. Suppose you are a customer or otherwise have a relationship with us. In that case, we will hold personal information about you for a more extended period than if we have obtained your details in connection with a future relationship.
We do not retain personal information in an identifiable format for longer than is necessary.
If we have a relationship with you (e.g. you are a regularly engaged customer), we hold your personal information for six years from the date our relationship ends. We hold your personal information for this period to establish, bring or defend legal claims.
Where we have obtained your personal information following a request for information or any other information on any of our products or services, we hold your personal information for one year and six months from the date we collect that information, unless during that period we form a relationship with you, e.g. you purchase from us. We hold your personal information for this period to allow us to develop a relationship with you.
The only exceptions to the periods mentioned above are where:
- The law requires us to hold your personal information for a more extended period or delete it sooner
- Where you have raised a complaint or concern regarding a product or service offered by us, in which case we will retain your information for six years following the date of that complaint or query; or
- You exercise your right to have the information erased (where it applies), and we do not need to hold it in connection with any of the reasons permitted or required under the law (see further How can I manage the information we hold about you)
How can I manage the information we hold about you?
You have the right as an individual to access your personal information we hold about you and make corrections if necessary. You also have the right to withdraw any consent you have previously given us and ask us to erase the information we hold about you. You can also object to us using your personal information (where we rely on our business interests to process and use your personal information).
You have several rights in relation to your personal information under data protection law. Regarding most rights, we will ask you for information to confirm your identity and, where applicable, to help us search for your personal information. Except in rare cases, we will respond to you within 30 days after receiving any request (including any identification documents requested).
You have the right to:
- Ask for a copy of the information that we hold about you;
- Correct and update your information;
- Withdraw your consent (where we rely on it).
- Object to our use of your information (where we rely on our legitimate interests to use your personal information) provided we do not have any continuing lawful reason to continue to use and process the information. When we do rely on our legitimate interests to use your personal information for direct marketing, we will always comply with your right to object
- Erase your information (or restrict the use of it), provided we do not have any continuing lawful reason to continue to use and process that information
- Transfer your information in a structured data file (in a commonly used and machine-readable format), where we rely on your consent to use and process your personal information or need to process it in connection with your contract
