Where we hold personal information that is not listed above, we keep it only for as long as we need it for the purpose we collected it for. After that we delete it or make it anonymous.

We do not make decisions about you by automated means alone, and we do not build profiles or scores about you.
We do record whether links in our marketing emails are clicked, so that we can see which content readers find useful. We use this to improve what we send, not to make decisions about individuals.

We will respond within one month. If your request is complex, or if you have made several requests, we may extend that period by up to two further months. We will tell you within the first month if we need to do so. We may ask you to confirm your identity before we act, so that we do not disclose your information to someone else.
