All client details, registered works or registration details are considered confidential and except where legally required, (i.e. by court order or Police investigation), will not be disclosed to any third party without prior consent.

Client details will never be passed onto other companies, mailing lists, etc.

All our personnel dealing directly with client details are required to sign a confidentiality agreement.

All electronic back ups of works are encrypted, to ensure they cannot be accessed by unauthorised personnel.

All documents and files containing client data that require disposal, (such as redundant or expired files) are disposed of in a secure manner, normally by shredding and/or incineration.

We host our web sites and services using our own servers and have in-house IT specialists who manage our systems. This means that your information and files are never stored or copied by any third parties along the way.

Our website uses high security digital certificates to encrypt the communication between your browser and our servers. This ensures your privacy for any data you enter on our website forms and confidentiality of any files that you upload to us.

When we store your work electronically, it is done in such a way to ensure that it cannot be accessed by any unauthorised person.

Files you upload are immediately obfuscated, and all back up files are encrypted. Our storage servers cannot be directly accessed from the Internet, so they cannot be targeted by hackers.
