  • Contract — where processing is necessary to deliver agreed services
  • Legal obligation — where we must keep records or comply with law
  • Consent — for optional cookies or marketing communications where required

You can withdraw consent at any time for processing that relies on consent.

Marketing communications

We do not send marketing emails unless you have opted in or we have another lawful basis to do so.

If you receive marketing from us, you can opt out at any time by using the unsubscribe link in the email or by contacting us directly.

05

Sharing your data

We may share data with trusted service providers (processors) who help us operate, such as:

  • Productivity tools
  • Website hosting and analytics providers
  • Form and file handling providers
  • Project management tools

We only share what is necessary, and we require processors to protect the data in accordance with applicable law.

We may also share data where required by law or to protect our legal rights.

06

International transfers

Some processors may store data outside the UK. Where this happens, we use appropriate safeguards such as UK adequacy decisions or standard contractual clauses.

07

Data retention

We keep personal data only for as long as needed.

Typical retention approach:

  • Enquiry and brief records: kept for a reasonable period to support communication and follow-up
  • Client records: kept for contract delivery and legal/accounting requirements
  • Analytics data: retained according to the provider's settings

If you want details on retention periods for a specific case, email us.

08

Security

We use reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal data. No system is completely secure, but we aim to reduce risk through access control and sensible operational practices.
