Security is a high priority. We take appropriate precautions to protect data from loss, misuse, unauthorized access or disclosure, alteration, or destruction using the same safeguards as we use for our own proprietary information. All information you provide to us is stored on our secure servers, and any payment transactions will be encrypted using SSL technology. Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password that enables you to access certain parts of the Website, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential. We ask you not to share a password with anyone.

Unfortunately, email and other electronic communications are not secure if they have not been encrypted, and your communications may pass through servers in several different countries before they reach us. Although we will do our best to protect your data (and will use strict procedures and security features to prevent unauthorized access once we have received it), we cannot guarantee the security of your data transmitted to the Website and any transmission at your own risk. We also cannot accept responsibility for any unauthorized access to, or loss of, data that results from a cause beyond our control, nor can we be held responsible for the actions or omissions of other users or third parties who may misuse your data which they collect from the Website.

To whom do we disclose your information?

We may share your information with any member of our group (which means our subsidiaries, our ultimate holding company, and its subsidiaries from time to time, in each case as defined in section 7 of the Companies Act 2014).

Payment details, including credit card numbers, are supplied directly to Stripe by the user. We do not receive or store such information. However, to ensure your details are not being used without consent, your data may be supplied to relevant third parties, including credit reference and fraud prevention agencies, who may keep a record of that information.

We may share your information with selected third parties, including:

• analytics and search engine providers that assist us in the improvement and optimization of the Website; and

• Very Important: If a third party city or regular adds a service provider user account to the website and selects the option to display this provider on the online profile, the application will add a “trusted in ” badge to the service provider online profile
