If any service provider processes data outside the United Kingdom, we will use appropriate safeguards such as UK adequacy regulations or standard contractual clauses, as applicable.

10. Security
We use reasonable technical and organisational measures designed to protect personal data from unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. No website can guarantee absolute security, but we work to reduce risk through access controls and good operational practices.
