6. International Data Transfers

Where we use service providers based outside the UK (for example, certain cloud storage or payment providers), we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place, such as the UK's International Data Transfer Agreement (IDTA) or adequacy regulations, to ensure your data remains protected.

11. CCTV Notice (Car Parks and Events)

Where CCTV is in operation at car parks we host (including at Royal Ascot) or at events we staff, signage will be displayed to inform you of the monitoring. CCTV footage is used solely for security, safety, and incident investigation purposes and is retained in accordance with Section 7 above.

We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 18, except where incidental (e.g., a guest list including a minor's name for catering/dietary purposes at a private family event).
