Data Security and Retention
We are committed to protecting your personal information from unauthorised access, use, or disclosure. We implement a range of technical, administrative, and physical security measures to safeguard your data.

Data Retention Periods
We retain personal information for the period required to fulfill the purposes outlined in this policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law. The retention period is determined by various factors, including our legal obligations under anti-money laundering regulations, which typically require us to keep records for a minimum of seven years after the business relationship ends. Once information is no longer needed, it is securely destroyed or de-identified.
