7. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
The website may use cookies and similar technologies to support security, improve functionality, analyse usage, and, where permitted, deliver relevant content or measure performance.
Cookies are used in accordance with this Privacy Policy. You can manage or disable cookies through your browser settings, though some website features may not function correctly as a result.
8. Data Retention
Personal data is kept only for as long as necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, including to meet legal, regulatory, tax, accounting, fraud prevention, dispute resolution, and operational requirements.
Retention periods may vary by the type of data and the reason for processing. Data may be kept longer where required by law, where needed to establish or defend legal claims, or where needed for compliance and security purposes.
Once retention is no longer necessary, personal data is securely deleted, anonymised, or irreversibly de-identified where appropriate.

Appropriate technical and organisational measures are in place to protect personal data against unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, destruction, or loss.
These measures may include:

- access controls and role-based permissions
- authentication and account protection measures
- logging, monitoring, and incident response procedures
- vendor due diligence and contractual security requirements
- backup, disaster recovery, and business continuity measures
No system can be guaranteed fully secure, but reasonable steps are taken to reduce risks and respond to incidents appropriately.
10. International Transfers
Personal data may be transferred to, stored in, or accessed from countries outside the user’s country of residence where this is necessary for service delivery, infrastructure, compliance, fraud prevention, support, or operational continuity.
Where cross-border transfers take place, reasonable safeguards are applied to protect personal data in line with applicable law.
11. User Rights
Subject to applicable law, users may have the right to:

These rights may be limited where data must be retained for legal, regulatory, fraud prevention, security, or dispute-related reasons.

Automated tools may be used for fraud prevention, transaction monitoring, sanctions screening, risk scoring, or service optimisation.
Where required by law, appropriate safeguards and human review procedures are applied.
