Legal Basis for Processing

We rely on the following lawful bases to process your data:

• Consent: Where you have provided clear permission (for example, to receive marketing emails).

• Legitimate interests: Where the processing is necessary for us to respond to your enquiries, improve our services, and grow our business in a way that does not override your rights.

• Enquiry information may be kept for up to 12 months if no business relationship develops.

• Client-related data may be retained for longer, in line with legal and regulatory obligations.

• After the retention period, your data will be securely deleted or anonymised.

Data Security

We take the security of your personal information seriously. We use appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect data against unauthorised access, loss, alteration, or disclosure.

Examples of these measures include:

• Secure servers and encryption where appropriate.

• Limiting access to personal data only to authorised personnel.

• Regular review of data handling procedures.

Despite these safeguards, no method of transmission over the internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. However, we are committed to continuously improving our security practices.

International Clients and Data Transfers

As we serve international clients, your personal data may be transferred outside the United Kingdom.

Whenever such transfers occur, we ensure that your data is given an adequate level of protection by implementing appropriate safeguards, such as the use of standard contractual clauses approved under UK data protection law.
