6. TRANSFERS OF PERSONAL DATA TO THIRD COUNTRIES
Some of our processors — in particular Google LLC — are headquartered in the United States of America, which is a country outside the European Economic Area (EEA). Such transfers are carried out on the basis of:
- Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) adopted by the European Commission pursuant to GDPR Article 46(2)(c), which impose binding data protection obligations on the recipient
- Your explicit consent, where applicable (e.g. when you accept analytics cookies)
The following measures are in place to protect your data when transferred to Google LLC:
- IP anonymisation is enabled in Google Analytics — your full IP address is never stored by Google
- Data is primarily processed within Google’s EU/EEA data centres where possible
- Google has committed to the EU-US Data Privacy Framework
For more information on Google’s data protection practices, see: https://policies.google.com/privacy
We do not transfer your personal data to any other third countries. If this changes, we will update this Privacy Policy and, where required, seek your consent.
7. RETENTION PERIODS
We retain personal data only for as long as is necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, or as required by applicable law. The specific retention periods applicable to each category of data are set out in the table in Section 4.
The following general principles apply to all personal data we hold:
- Data will be deleted or anonymised as soon as the purpose of processing has been fulfilled and no legal retention obligation applies
- Where you withdraw consent or successfully exercise your right to erasure, your data will be deleted within 30 days unless a longer statutory retention period applies
- Data retained for accounting and tax compliance purposes (up to 10 years) will be stored securely and accessed only for the specific legal purpose
- Job application data will be deleted within 6 months of receipt of the application if no employment relationship is established, unless you provide additional consent for us to retain your data for future vacancies
At the end of any retention period, personal data is securely deleted from our systems or anonymised in a way that prevents re-identification.
