Primetake will endeavour to keep your information accurate and up to date and not keep it for longer than is necessary. In some instances, the law sets the length of time information must be kept, but in most cases, Primetake use a set of retention rules to ensure that data is not retained any longer than to fulfil the purpose for which is has been collected.
The aim is not to be intrusive and we will not ask irrelevant or unnecessary questions. Moreover, the information you provide will be subject to rigorous measures and procedures to minimise the risk of unauthorised access or disclosure. These measures are described in our IT Security Policy.
