The main way we collect personal information about you is when you give it to us, for example:

  • when you contact us
  • when you submit information to our website

If you provide us with a testimonial, you give us your consent for the use of your name, image and the date to be displayed on our website or in our other marketing material, together with the content of the testimonial that you provide. We may edit your testimonial provide we do not change its meaning.

Indirect collection

Social Networking Services and links to other websites

When you communicate with us through a social media platform, we may collect your personal information. We will only use it to help us to communicate with you and the public. The social networking service will also handle your personal information for its own purposes.
