  • Date and time of each visitor request

This information is collected to better understand how visitors use our website and to improve its performance and content. From time to time, we may analyse this information in aggregate form.

We may also collect Internet Protocol (IP) addresses, for example when visitors submit forms or interact with website features. IP addresses are treated as personal information where applicable and are handled in accordance with this policy.

We collect this information only where it is necessary to respond to enquiries, provide services, meet legal or regulatory requirements, or communicate with you.

Access to personal information is limited to employees, contractors, or service providers who require it to perform their functions and who are bound by confidentiality obligations.

We do not sell, rent, or trade personal information to third parties.
