Protecting the loss, misuse or alteration of your information<\/span><\/h5><\/div>

When you give us personal information, we take steps to ensure that it\u2019s treated securely. Any sensitive information (such as credit or debit card details) is encrypted and protected with 128 Bit encryption on SSL.

Non-sensitive details (your email address etc.) are transmitted normally over the Internet, and this can never be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of any information you transmit to us, and you do so at your own risk. Once we receive your information, we make our best effort to ensure its security on our systems.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
