Security

We take your privacy very seriously and work hard to protect your data from being accidentally lost, used or accessed in an unauthorised way, altered or disclosed. We have put in place appropriate security measures to prevent this from happening. In addition, we limit access to your personal data to those employees, volunteers, agents, contractors and other third parties who have a need to know. They will only process your personal data on our instructions and they are subject to a duty of confidentiality.

For example:

  • where appropriate, data is encrypted when transiting on our system or stored on our databases;
  • we have implemented safeguards in relation to access and confidentiality in order to protect the information held within our systems; and
  • we frequently carry out risk assessments and audits to monitor and review threats and vulnerabilities to our systems to prevent fraud.

However, while we will do our best to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of your information which is transmitted via an internet or similar connection.
