Table Stewards is committed to protecting your personal information and your right to privacy. This Privacy Policy sets out how we handle the personal information you provide to us while using our website located at https://tablestewards.com. It covers:
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), an EU data protection law introduced on 25 May 2018, governs the way we collect, manage, store and use your personal information. It introduces new rights for individuals whose data is being held and reinforces the obligations and duties of organisations who process your personal information.
