We share personal data with external vendors or service providers or suppliers that we engage to perform services or functions on our behalf and under our instructions. Where these vendors are located within the UK/EU/EEA, we ensure that they are contractually obligated to comply with the UK/EU data protection laws.

Whenever we transfer your information in this way, we will take steps which are reasonably necessary to ensure that adequate safeguards are in place to protect your personal data and to make sure it is treated securely and in accordance with this privacy notice. In these cases, we rely on approved data transfer mechanisms (such as standard contractual clauses) to ensure your information is subject to adequate safeguards in the recipient country.

The categories of third parties to whom personal information is disclosed that may be considered a “sale” under California law are advertising and promotional agencies and consultants and those organisations or online platforms selected by us to carry out marketing campaigns on our behalf (for example, Facebook, Google, Instagram).
You can learn more and opt out of the use of cookies that involve the “sale” of personal data by clicking the “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” link at the bottom of our website and updating your preferences.
We also recognize the Global Privacy Control as a valid request from you to opt out of cookies that involve the “sale” of personal data.
You request to opt-out, including through use of the Global Privacy Control, will be linked to your browser only. As such, you will need to apply these settings on each device and browser from which you wish to opt out. Similarly, if you clear your browser’s cache (such as by deleting cookies), you will have to apply this setting again.
We do not sell, or have actual knowledge of any sale of, the personal information of minors under 16 years of age.
