  • To respond to enquiries and provide customer support
  • To supply products and services to customers and manage associated logistics
  • To manage our relationships with customers, distributors and suppliers

We do not sell your personal data.


8. International transfers

Some of our service providers or partners may be located outside the United Kingdom or may store data on servers outside the UK.

Where we transfer personal data outside the UK, we will ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place, such as:

  • an adequacy regulation issued by the UK government, or
  • standard contractual clauses approved for use in the UK, supplemented where necessary to ensure essentially equivalent protection.

You can contact us for more information about these safeguards.


9. Cookies and similar technologies

Our website may use cookies and similar technologies to:

  • make the site function and remember your preferences
  • understand how visitors use the site so that we can improve it
  • support security and performance.

Where cookies are not strictly necessary for the operation of the website, we will ask for your consent before placing them, in line with UK law.

You can manage your cookie preferences via the cookie banner (where available) or through your browser settings. Please note that blocking some cookies may affect the functionality of the site.

More detailed information is provided in our [Cookie Policy] or in the cookie settings tool if one is implemented.


10. Data retention

We will keep personal data only for as long as is reasonably necessary for the purposes set out in this policy, including to:

  • respond to enquiries
  • maintain ongoing relationships
  • comply with legal, regulatory and reporting obligations
  • resolve disputes and enforce agreements.

Retention periods may vary depending on the type of data and context. By way of indication:

  • General enquiries: usually up to [2] years after the last contact
  • Customer and supplier records: typically kept for the duration of the relationship and for up to [6] years afterwards for legal and accounting purposes
  • Incident and product vigilance records: retained in line with applicable medical device regulations and safety requirements, which may require longer retention periods.

We review our retention periods regularly and securely delete or anonymise data when it is no longer needed.


11. How we protect personal data

We take appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against unauthorised access, loss, misuse, alteration or disclosure. These measures may include:

  • access controls and authentication
  • secure networks and encryption where appropriate
  • regular backup and system monitoring
  • staff training and confidentiality obligations.

No system can be guaranteed to be completely secure. However, we work to maintain a level of security appropriate to the risks associated with the processing of personal data.
