Awe Interactive Limited is committed to ensuring that your information is secure.

We aim to retain your data for the minimum time necessary.

All our computer systems are password-protected and we aim to restrict employee access to your data to the minimum level possible. All IT equipment that we dispose of is securely wiped or physically destroyed, so as to make data recovery impossible.

We aim to minimise the number of hard copy printouts of personal data that we generate. Any that we do produce are securely stored, kept for the minimum amount of time possible, and shredded once no longer required.

In the unlikely event that we do suffer a breach affecting your data, we will inform you as soon as we are aware of it, and work with you to identify the scope and minimise the impact.

We regularly audit our systems to ensure that data is stored with the minimum possible access rights whilst in use, and removed as soon as it is no longer required.

We believe that our GDPR lawful basis for processing such personal data is one of legitimate interest.
