Privacy inquiries

Subject to legal limits, users may request access to their personal data, ask for corrections, or raise concerns about how their information is handled. Where a request cannot be fully granted, we will explain the reason where appropriate. Some records may need to be retained for dispute handling, security, or compliance purposes.

Available rights may depend on the nature of the request and applicable law.

To protect privacy and security, we may need to verify a request before responding. We will review requests within a reasonable period and act in accordance with applicable law. If additional information is needed to locate records or confirm identity, we may ask for it before completing the request.

Requests are assessed against identity, scope, and legal retention requirements before action is taken.

We retain personal data for the period needed to provide the service, maintain records, resolve disputes, meet legal or regulatory obligations, and protect our legitimate business interests. When data is no longer required, we will delete it, anonymise it, or otherwise handle it in a way that prevents further use, subject to applicable retention requirements.

We keep data only for as long as needed for the stated purposes or legal obligations.

If we make material changes, we will take reasonable steps to notify users through the website or other appropriate means. The updated version will apply from the date stated in the revised policy. Continued use of the site after an update takes effect may indicate acceptance of the revised terms where permitted by law.

We may revise this policy to reflect operational, legal, or technical changes.
