We do not sell or rent your personal information to third parties.
We may share information with trusted third parties when reasonably necessary for legitimate business, operational, technical, legal, or security purposes. These parties may include:
Where third-party service providers process information on our behalf, we seek to use appropriate contractual, technical, and organisational safeguards appropriate to the nature of the information and the services being provided.

Under the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023, and subject to applicable law, you have the following rights in relation to your personal information:
Requests may be submitted using the contact details in Section 12 or Section 18. We may need to verify your identity before processing certain requests in order to protect your information from unauthorised access.
Where we rely on your consent to process personal information, you may withdraw that consent at any time by contacting us through the details provided below. Withdrawing consent will be as easy as giving it.
Withdrawal of consent will not affect the lawfulness of processing that occurred before withdrawal. In certain circumstances, we may continue processing information where permitted or required by applicable law or where another lawful basis for processing applies. Following withdrawal, we will cease processing your personal data for the relevant purpose within a reasonable time, unless retention is required by law.
