We collect data or information about you when you use our website, when you make an enquiry about our products or services, enquire about a job opportunity, or if you register to be sent an email news update.

How is your information used?

We collect your personal data or information to operate our business effectively and provide you with the best possible information on our products and services.

We may use your information to:

  • Carry out our obligations arising from any contract or contract negotiations entered into by you or us as a client or prospective client
