Data security is a priority for Limeglass – as such we employ both physical and technical measures to prevent unauthorised parties gaining access to Personal Data, and in doing so minimise the risk of unlawful destruction, alteration or unauthorised disclosure of your Personal Data.

Certain aspects of the security of your account are your own responsibility. These include managing your personal computer, using a strong password and protecting it accordingly, signing out of websites once done with your session and limiting the number of devices you are logged in on.

This Policy may be updated as it becomes necessary and will be reviewed annually. Changes may occur more frequently, depending on the rate of change of technologies, regulatory requirements and any other unforeseen factors.
