5. Cookies

Our website may use cookies and similar technologies to provide essential website functions, maintain login sessions, remember preferences, improve performance, and understand how visitors use our website.

You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings. Some parts of the website may not function correctly if certain cookies are disabled.

These providers may process information only as required to provide their services or as permitted under their own privacy policies and applicable law.

7. Information Security

We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect customer information against unauthorised access, loss, misuse, alteration, or disclosure.

However, no online service, server, or method of electronic storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure. Customers are responsible for maintaining strong passwords and protecting their own account credentials.

8. Customer Website Data

Customers using our hosting services may upload, store, or process information belonging to their own website visitors or customers.

The customer remains responsible for ensuring that the content and data hosted through their account is collected and processed lawfully.

  • It is required by applicable law

When information is no longer reasonably required, we may delete or anonymise it according to our internal procedures and technical capabilities.

10. Backups

Hosting accounts may be included in backup systems depending on the service or hosting plan provided.

Deleted files or account information may remain temporarily within backup systems until those backups are automatically replaced or removed.

Backups should not be considered a permanent archive. Customers are encouraged to maintain their own independent backups of important website data.
