This privacy notice (“Privacy Notice”) together with our Terms of Use, explains how we treat any personal data that we collect and process when you use our website, Services or products. This privacy notice aims to inform you about how we collect, store, use and disclose information about you when you:
As a company with a global presence, we are subject to the varying requirements of data protection and privacy legislation in jurisdictions where we operate. Our aim is to be as consistent as possible and obey all applicable laws operating with a high standard in our approach. For example, if you are a resident of the EU, we are bound by EU local laws including the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) or if you are a resident of California, we also respect the local laws of California including The Californian Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”).
We collect and process the personal data that you provide when interacting with us, either online or via email, mobile, phone or post.
Such personal data may include the following:
First name and surname;
Postal and/or email address;
Country of residence and/or nationality;
Unique identifier information (e.g. your customer username or number and password); and
Some details provided by your device such as IP address, device ID, device type, and location data.
The source of the above information is received from your payment card issuer (such as a bank). The information is only used for business purposes to supply the Service.
We must have a legal basis in order to process your personal data. In most cases, that will be for us to provide the contracted Service. The table below sets out the purposes for which we use your personal data and our legal basis for doing so:
What we use your information for | Our legal basis for doing so |
Provide you with access to our website and or our mobile app. | To provide the contracted Service. |

Where you have agreed, provide you with information about certain other goods and services which we believe may be of interest to you. | Where we have your consent. |
Meet our legal and regulatory obligations, for example, to investigate and prevent fraudulent activities. | To comply with our legal obligations. |

Moreover, your personal data will only be shared with selected organisations which comply with our security procedures and policies. Organisations we may share your personal data with include:
Some of those organisations may be based in a country outside the European Economic Area or where different data privacy laws apply. We will only transfer your personal data to that country after ensuring an equivalent level of protection of your rights and freedoms, or you have given us your consent to do so.
We will not sell your personal data to anyone.
Personal data collected and processed in accordance with this Privacy Notice is stored on secure servers currently located in the European Economic Area.
We handle your personal data in accordance with adequate and reasonable procedures and technologies in order to maintain and protect its security, availability, confidentiality and integrity, and prevent its unlawful or unauthorised processing, accidental loss or damage, from its collection until its destruction.
Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password which enables you to access certain parts of your personal data, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential. We require you not to share a password with anyone.
We will only keep your personal data for as long as it is needed for the purposes for which it was collected, and we will remove from our systems all personal data which is no longer required.
We will only retain your personal data for only as long as it is necessary and for a specified and limited purpose, where we are required to do so and in line with our retention policies, or in order to meet a regulatory or legal obligation.
