Depending on how the site is used, information may include an IP address, browser and device information, requested pages, referring pages, approximate region, timestamps, consent choices and security logs. If you contact us, we may also process your name, email address, message and any information you choose to provide.
Please do not send passport details, financial account information, medical records or other sensitive information unless it has been specifically requested through an appropriately secure channel.
3. Why information is used
- To deliver, secure and troubleshoot the website.
- To respond to enquiries and rights requests.

4. Cookies, advertising and Google AdSense
When Google AdSense advertising is displayed, Google and other third parties may place or read cookies on a visitor's browser, or use web beacons, IP addresses, device identifiers and interaction data to deliver, limit, personalise and measure advertising. Essential technologies may also be used for security and site delivery.
Google explains how it uses information from sites that use its services. Visitors can also review or change advertising choices in Google's My Ad Center.
Where consent is required, including for relevant visitors in the European Economic Area, United Kingdom and Switzerland, advertising cookies and similar technologies must not be used until the visitor has made a choice through a Google-certified consent platform. See the Cookie Policy and Advertising Disclosure.
5. Legal grounds
Depending on location and context, processing may be based on consent, performance of a requested service, compliance with law, or legitimate interests such as securing the website, communicating with visitors and improving non-intrusive site performance. Consent can be withdrawn through the consent controls when available.
6. Service providers and international transfers
Hosting, security, analytics, email and advertising providers may process information on our behalf or as independent controllers. Some may operate in other countries. Where required, appropriate transfer mechanisms and contractual safeguards should be used. Advertising providers publish their own privacy information and controls.
7. Retention and security
Information is kept only as long as reasonably needed for the purpose collected, security, dispute handling or legal compliance. Reasonable technical and organisational measures are used, but no internet service can guarantee absolute security.
8. Your choices and rights
Depending on applicable law, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict or object to processing, withdraw consent, receive portable data and complain to a data-protection authority. Requests should identify the relevant interaction and country so that the correct legal framework can be assessed.
9. Children
The site is intended for a general adult audience and is not directed to children. We do not knowingly request personal information from children.
