For more information on Cookies, please see our cookie policy.
The Site also uses Analytics.
We may use Google Analytics and any other analytics providers we may use from time to time to advertise on the Site and third-party sites to you after you visit our Site. Third parties, and we like Google, use first-party cookies and third-party cookies to inform, optimize and serve ads based on your past visits to our Site:
Google Analytics
Google Analytics is a web analytics service offered by Google that tracks and reports website traffic. Google uses the data collected to track and monitor the use of our Site. This data is shared with other Google services. Google may use the collected data to contextualize and personalize the ads of its advertising network. We use Google Analytics’ third-party audience data such as age, gender and interests to understand the behaviour of our customers. We also work with companies that collect information about your online activities to provide advertising targeted to suit your interests and preferences.
This means that you may occasionally see several advertisements on the Site or other sites you browse because we contract with Google and other companies to target our advertisements based on data they or we have collected, including data collected through cookies. These companies may also be able to collect information when you click on advertisements on the Site, which helps track and manage the effectiveness of our marketing efforts.
You can opt out of Google Analytics for Display Advertising and customize the Google Display Network ads by visiting the Google Ads Settings page (https://adssettings.google.com/authenticated). Google also recommends installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on for your browser (https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout). Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on allows visitors to prevent their data from being collected and used by Google Analytics.

7. Your Rights
Under certain circumstances, you have rights under data protection laws about your data:

- Request correction of your data. This enables you to have any incomplete or inaccurate data we hold about you corrected. However, we may need to verify the accuracy of the new data you provide.
- Request erasure of your data. You have the right to ask us to delete any information we hold about you that is not relevant to the purpose of collecting it. This enables you to ask us to delete or remove personal data where there is no good reason for us to continue to process it. You may also request for us to delete all your data. There may be legal obligations that prohibit us from deleting all or any information held about you immediately at the request (such as Anti-Money Laundering legislation); however, we will process your request at the earliest opportunity whenever the applicable data retention period expires.
- Object to processing of your data. You have a right to object to our processing of personal data where we are relying on a legitimate interest (or those of a third party), and there is something about your particular situation which makes you want to object to processing on this ground as you feel it impacts on your fundamental rights and freedoms. You also have the right to object to where we are processing your data for direct marketing purposes. In some cases, we may demonstrate that we have compelling legitimate grounds to process your information, overriding your rights and freedoms.
- Request restriction of processing your data. This enables you to ask us to suspend the processing of your data in the following scenarios: (a) if you want us to establish the data’s accuracy; (b) where our use of the data is unlawful, but you do not want us to erase it; (c) where you need us to hold the data even if we no longer require it as you need it to establish, exercise or defend legal claims; or (d) you have objected to our use of your data, but we need to verify whether we have overriding legitimate grounds to use it.
- Request transfer of your data (data portability request). This enables you to request your data. We will provide your data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format. Note that this right only applies to automated information you initially provided consent for us to use or where we used the information to perform a contract with you.
- Right to withdraw consent for direct marketing. You have the right at any time to change your mind about us being able to contact you with direct marketing. You can exercise your right to stop receiving direct marketing by clicking the ‘Unsubscribe’ link at the bottom of all our emails.
