5. Where we store your personal data

The data that we collect from you may be transferred to, and stored at, a destination outside the European Economic Area (the ‘EEA’). It may also be processed by staff operating outside the EEA who work for us or for one of our suppliers. This includes staff engaged in, among other things, the fulfilment of your request for legal services, the processing of your payment details and the provision of support services. By submitting your personal data to E-Web Developments Ltd, you agree to this transfer, storing or processing. We will take reasonable steps to ensure that your data is treated securely and in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

All information you provide to us is stored on secure servers. Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password which enables you to access certain parts of our site, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential. We ask you not to share a password with anyone.

Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure.

Once we have received your information, we will use strict procedures and security features to try to prevent unauthorised access.

Please check these policies before you submit any personal data to these websites.

The Act gives you the right to access information held about you. Your right of access can be exercised in accordance with the Act. Any access request will be subject to a fee of £15 +vat to meet our costs in providing you with details of the information we hold about you and you verifying your identity by providing us with: (a) a copy of your passport or driving licence certified by a solicitor; and (b) an original copy of a bank statement or utility bill with your current address and dated no earlier than 60 days prior to the date when you make your subject access request.
