EUROPEAN UNION GENERAL DATA PROTECTION REGULATION (GDPR)
Privacy Statement
This Privacy Statement only applies to the collection and processing of ‘EU personal data’. ‘EU personal data’ means any personal information of an individual who is located in the European Union (‘EU’) (whether the individual is a citizen of an EU country or otherwise). This section will apply to you and the processing of your EU personal data if you are located in an EU country. This section does not apply with respect to your personal information if you are located outside of the EU countries, even though you may be a citizen of an EU country.
For the purposes of this Privacy Statement, the term ‘process’ has the same meaning given to it under the GDPR and may include any operation or a series of operations performed on EU personal data, including collection, recording, organisation, structuring, storage, adaptation, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure, by transmission, dissemination or otherwise making available, alignment or combination, restriction, erasure or destruction.
EU personal data that is collected by us may have been sourced directly from you, a third party or implied from your use of our products or services. We will process EU personal data in accordance with this Privacy Statement and our Privacy Policy. To the extent of any inconsistencies between other sections of our Privacy Policy and this Privacy Statement in relation to the processing of EU personal data, this Privacy Statement prevails.
This Privacy Statement was drafted with brevity and clarity in mind. It does not provide exhaustive detail of all aspects of our collection and use of personal data. However, we are happy to provide any additional information or explanation needed. For further information, please contact us through the ‘Contact Details’.
