If you are not a registered client for our site, there is no personal information we can retain or view regarding yourself.
If you are a client with a registered account, your personal information can be accessed by our System Administrators
THIRD PARTY ACCESS TO YOUR DATA
We don’t share your data with third-parties in a way as to reveal any of your personal information like email, name, etc. The only exceptions to that rule are for partners we have to share limited data with in order to provide the services you expect from us.
HOW LONG WE RETAIN YOUR DATA FOR
When you submit a support ticket or a comment, its metadata is retained until (if) you tell us to remove it. We use this data so that we can recognise you and approve your comments automatically instead of holding them for moderation.

SECURITY MEASURES
We use the SSL/HTTPS protocol throughout our site. This encrypts our user communications with the servers so that personal identifiable information is not captured/hijacked by third parties without authorisation.
In case of a data breach, system administrators will immediately take all necessary steps to ensure system security is working correctly, will contact affected users and will attempt to reset passwords if needed.
AMENDMENTS
We may amend this privacy policy. When we do so, we will update this page accordingly.
