  • Company or organisation name, job title, and project details when you enquire about our services.
  • Any other information you voluntarily submit via forms, email, or other channels.

Data collected automatically

4. How We Use Your Data

We use your data to:

  • Improve our website, content, and user experience.
  • Comply with legal obligations and protect our rights.
  • Analyse usage and trends (in anonymised or aggregated form where possible).

Where GDPR or UK GDPR applies, we process your personal data on one or more of the following legal bases:

  • Consent: You have given clear consent (e.g. for marketing or non-essential cookies).
  • Contract: Processing is necessary to perform a contract with you or to take steps at your request before entering a contract.
  • Legitimate interests: Processing is necessary for our legitimate interests (e.g. responding to enquiries, improving our services, security), provided your interests do not override ours.
  • Legal obligation: Processing is necessary to comply with the law.

Where we rely on consent, you may withdraw it at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal.

6. Data Sharing & Third Parties

We may share your data with:

  • Service providers: Hosting, analytics, email delivery, form handling (e.g. Zoho), and other technical providers that help us run our website and business, under strict data-processing terms.
  • Professional advisers: Lawyers, accountants, or insurers where necessary.
  • Authorities: When required by law or to protect our rights, safety, or property.

We do not sell your personal data to third parties. We require processors to use your data only as instructed and to protect it appropriately.

7. International Transfers

Your data may be processed in countries outside your country of residence, including outside the European Economic Area (EEA) or the UK. Where we transfer data to such countries, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place, such as:

  • An adequacy decision by the European Commission or UK authorities, or
  • Standard contractual clauses (SCCs) or other approved transfer mechanisms.

You may request details of the safeguards we use for specific transfers by contacting us.

8. Data Retention

We keep your personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes set out in this policy, including to satisfy legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. Retention periods depend on the type of data and purpose, for example:

  • Enquiry and contact data: typically for the duration of our relationship and a reasonable period thereafter, or as required by law.
  • Marketing consent and preferences: until you withdraw consent or opt out.
  • Technical and access logs: as needed for security and analytics, often for a limited period (e.g. 12–24 months) unless a longer period is required by law.

After the retention period, we delete or anonymise your data where possible.

Depending on where you live, you may have the following rights:

  • Access: Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
  • Rectification: Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete data.
  • Erasure: Request deletion of your data in certain circumstances (“right to be forgotten”).
  • Restriction: Request that we restrict processing in certain situations.
  • Portability: Request a copy of your data in a structured, machine-readable format, or ask us to transfer it to another controller where technically feasible.
