9. International Data Transfers

Where necessary, we ensure that any data transferred outside the UK is protected through appropriate safeguards, such as Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs).

10. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

As a privacy-first focused service, we don't use any tracking technologies.

We use cookies purely to provide the ability for you to be able to login (authenticate) and use our service and nothing else.

You can manage cookie preferences in your browser settings.

11. Temporary Non-Identifying Information

When you signup on our site, we may collect a temporary non-identifying ad click reference (known as a "Google Click Identifier" or gclid) to help us understand the effectiveness of our advertising campaign. It will never be used to personally identify you, your account or to track any behavior across our sites in any way.

We do not store cookies or personal identifiers for advertising purposes. Any non-identifying identifier used for effectiveness of our advertising is stored separately (without any account or user references), used solely for reporting the attribution of the ad click and then deleted within a limited period (e.g. 90 days).

We will never sell or share this data with any third party outside of our advertising platforms.

The only data shared with our advertiser is the non-identifying ad click reference and nothing else - we won't share any hashed (user or account) information and we don't use Google Enhanced Conversions.

11. Updates to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically. Continued use of the Service signifies acceptance of any changes.
