Privacy Notice: How We Use Information

Retention and Security
We keep information only for as long as we reasonably need it for the enquiry, appointment, legal obligation or legitimate business record. The appropriate retention period depends on the nature of the information and why we hold it. In addition, QSEC uses proportionate technical and organisational measures intended to protect information from unauthorised access, loss or misuse.
