4. How long we keep your data
We take the principles of data minimization and removal seriously and
have internal policies in place to ensure that we only ever ask for the
minimum amount of data for the associated purpose and delete that data
promptly once it is no longer required.
Where data is collected on the basis of consent, we will seek renewal of
consent at least every three years.
5. Rights you have over your data
You have a range of rights over your data, which include the following:
-
Where data

time and we will make it as easy as possible for you to do this (for
example by putting ‘unsubscribe’ links at the bottom of all our
marketing emails).
-
You have the right
to ask for rectification and/or deletion of your information.
-
You have the right
of access to your information.
-
You have the right
to lodge a complaint if you feel your rights have been infringed.
Please note that relying on some of these rights, such as the right to
deleting your data, will make it impossible for us to continue to
deliver some services to you. However, where possible we will always try
to allow the maximum access to your rights while continuing to deliver
as many services to you as possible.
