In order to prevent unauthorised access or disclosure we have put in place suitable physical, electronic and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect.  All the information you submit to us is stored securely and managed in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulations.  However, internet transmissions are never completely private or secure, and any message or information you send to NTM may be read or intercepted by others unless there is a special notice that a particular message is encrypted.

 

NTM will never request credit/debit card information from you via email.

Please do not send this information or other sensitive information to us via email.

 

You should always take the following steps when submitting personal information to any websites:

 

Always check the privacy policy of the website before you submit your data.  Make sure you are clear about how it will be used and who the site will share it with. If you have an account, keep your password secure and do not share it.  Regularly change your passwords, make them at least 8 characters and do not use obvious keywords or references.  Use a mixture of characters, symbols and numbers. Don’t use the same password for different accounts.  This means that whoever has access to one password can access all your online accounts. Be very careful when submitting financial information such as credit card or bank details.  Only submit these via secure websites (look for the padlock in the address bar).
