Do Not Track Disclosures

Some web browsers may transmit “do-not-track” (DNT) signals to the websites with which the user communicates. Because of differences in how web browsers incorporate and activate this feature, it is not always clear whether users intend for these signals to be transmitted, or whether they are even aware of them. We currently do not change our tracking practices in response to DNT settings in your web browser. Our third party partners, such as web analytics companies, collect information about your online activities over time and across our website and other online properties. We utilize Google Analytics for our web analytics and you can opt out of your website usage data being included in our Google Analytics reports by visiting .

How Do We Protect Personally Identifiable Information You Provide to Us?

We make reasonable efforts to protect personally identifiable information that you submit over the website from loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction.  However, due to the inherent nature of the Internet as an open global communications vehicle, the firm does not warrant or represent that its level of security meets or exceeds any particular standard, and no server or internet transmission is ever 100% secure or error-free.  You should take this into account when submitting personal or confidential data on any websites, including ours.  Similarly, any information that you send us through the websites is not confidential or privileged.

How Long Will my Personally Identifiable Information be Kept for?

We will endeavor not to keep your personally identifiable information in a form that allows you to be identified for any longer than is reasonably necessary for achieving the permitted purposes.

Will my Personally Identifiable Information be Transferred to Other Countries?

Personally identifiable information may be transferred outside of the UK/European Economic Area (“UK/EEA”) to members of our group and other third parties as set out above, provided that certain conditions as set out in the applicable legislation are complied with. Your personally identifiable information will also be processed by personnel operating outside the UK/EEA who work for us. This includes personnel engaged in, among other things, the fulfilment of your order and the provision of support services.

We are party to a data transfer agreement with the members of our group and we will (i) keep that document up to date with current law, and (ii) only engage in personally identifiable information transfers from the UK/EEA to outside the UK/EEA in accordance with such an agreement or an alternative means of transfer in compliance with data protection legislation.
