Lawful Basis for Processing

We process personal data only where we have a lawful basis to do so. The specific lawful basis depends on the nature of the processing:

Consent

When you submit an enquiry through our website forms, you provide consent for us to process your contact details to respond to your request. You may withdraw this consent at any time by contacting us.

Contract Performance

When you engage our consulting services, we process personal data as necessary to perform our contractual obligations, including project delivery, invoicing, and communication about the engagement.

Legitimate Interests

We may process data based on our legitimate business interests where this does not override your fundamental rights. This includes website analytics to improve our services and security measures to protect our systems.

Legal Obligation

We may process data where required to comply with legal or regulatory requirements, such as tax reporting or responding to lawful requests from authorities.

Your Rights Under GDPR

The UK GDPR provides you with specific rights regarding your personal data:

Right of Access

You have the right to request a copy of the personal data we hold about you. We will provide this information within one month of receiving your request, free of charge in most circumstances.

Right to Rectification

If you believe the personal data we hold about you is inaccurate or incomplete, you have the right to request correction. We will respond to such requests within one month.

Right to Erasure

In certain circumstances, you have the right to request that we delete your personal data. This right applies when the data is no longer necessary for the purpose it was collected, you withdraw consent, or the data has been unlawfully processed.

Right to Restrict Processing

You have the right to request that we restrict the processing of your data in certain circumstances, such as when you contest the accuracy of the data or object to processing based on legitimate interests.

Right to Data Portability

Where processing is based on consent or contract and carried out by automated means, you have the right to receive your data in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format.

Right to Object

You have the right to object to processing based on legitimate interests. We will cease processing unless we demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds that override your interests.

Rights Related to Automated Decision-Making

We do not use automated decision-making or profiling that produces legal or similarly significant effects.

How to Exercise Your Rights

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at [email protected]. We will verify your identity before processing your request and respond within one month. If your request is complex or we receive numerous requests, we may extend this period by up to two months, in which case we will inform you of the extension and the reasons for it.

Data Security Measures

We implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to ensure a level of security appropriate to the risk, including:

Data Breach Procedures

We have procedures in place to detect, investigate, and report personal data breaches. Where a breach is likely to result in a high risk to your rights and freedoms, we will notify you without undue delay, in addition to notifying the Information Commissioner's Office as required by law.

International Data Transfers

We primarily process data within the United Kingdom. Where we transfer personal data outside the UK, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place, such as Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the UK Government, or transfer to countries with an adequacy decision.

Complaints

If you are not satisfied with how we handle your personal data or respond to your rights requests, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office:
