07
International Data Transfers
Brills Affiliate may work with service providers, business partners or infrastructure located in more than one country. As a result, information may in some circumstances be processed outside the country in which you are located.
Where applicable law requires safeguards for an international transfer, appropriate contractual, organisational or other recognised transfer mechanisms may be used.
The level of legal protection available in another jurisdiction may differ from that available in your home jurisdiction.
08
How Long We Keep Information
Personal information is retained for no longer than reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, subject to contractual, accounting, security, dispute-resolution and legal requirements.
Retention periods may differ depending on the category of information. For example, active account information may be required while an affiliate relationship remains in place, while certain transactional or compliance records may need to be retained after an account becomes inactive.
When information is no longer reasonably required, it may be deleted, anonymised or otherwise placed beyond ordinary operational use, subject to applicable requirements.
09
Your Privacy Rights
Depending on your location and the law applicable to the processing, you may have rights relating to your personal information.
- Access — request information about personal data held about you.

These rights are not absolute. A request may be limited where another person’s rights, legal obligations, fraud prevention, contractual requirements or another lawful exception applies.
We may take reasonable steps to verify your identity before acting on a privacy request. This helps prevent unauthorised disclosure or alteration of account information.
To submit a privacy-related request, use the Contact page and clearly describe the information or action you are requesting.

Data Security
We use reasonable technical and organisational measures intended to protect personal information against unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure, loss or misuse.
Depending on the relevant system and information, safeguards may include access controls, authentication measures, restricted permissions, logging, secure transmission methods, backups and other operational security practices.
No internet service or storage method can provide an absolute guarantee of security. Users should also protect their own account credentials and should not share passwords or authentication information with other people.
If you become aware of suspicious activity involving your Affiliate Account, contact us as soon as reasonably possible.
