Pseudonymisation, meaning that we can use a different name or identifier to hide parts of your personal information from view. This means that someone outside of Blue Point Art ltd could work on your information for us without ever knowing it was yours
Controlling access to systems and networks allows us to stop people who are not allowed to view your personal information from getting access to it
