7. Who we share your information with
We do not sell, rent or trade your personal information.
Your information may be accessed by authorised Torqworks personnel where necessary to deal with your enquiry or operate our business.

* Website hosting and maintenance

8. Wix and website technology
Our Website is built and hosted using Wix.
Wix may use cookies and similar technologies that are necessary to provide, secure and operate the Website. Depending on the features and settings enabled on our Website, Wix or third-party services may also use additional technologies.
We do not intentionally use personal information collected through our contact form for advertising or sell it to third parties.
If we introduce analytics, advertising, marketing or other non-essential tracking technologies in the future, we will update this Privacy Policy and, where required, provide an appropriate consent mechanism before using those technologies.
9. Cookies
Our Website may use cookies and similar technologies.
Cookies are small files placed on your device which can enable a website to function correctly, remember preferences, maintain security and, where enabled, provide information about how the Website is used.
Some cookies may be strictly necessary for the Website to operate and may not require consent.
Other cookies, such as certain analytics or marketing cookies, may require your consent before they are placed on your device.
At present, Torqworks does not intentionally use Google Analytics or other third-party analytics services unless these are subsequently enabled on the Website.
Because our Website is operated using Wix, the cookies and technologies actually used may depend on the Wix configuration and features enabled on the Website.
We will review our use of cookies and similar technologies periodically and update this Privacy Policy where necessary.
10. How long we keep your information
We will only keep your personal information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected.
Information relating to an enquiry will generally be retained for as long as reasonably necessary to:
* Respond to and manage your enquiry;
* Maintain appropriate business records;
* Establish or maintain a business relationship; or
* Comply with legal, accounting or regulatory requirements.
If your enquiry does not result in a business relationship, we will periodically review the information and securely delete or anonymise it when it is no longer reasonably required.
