What we collect

When you submit a form on this site (a sales review request, a system audit request, a call booking, or a similar enquiry), we collect the information you provide, which may include:

  • Your name
  • Your business name
  • Your business website address
  • Your email address
  • Your phone number
  • Anything else you choose to tell us about your enquiry

When you browse this site, and only if you accept analytics cookies (see our Cookies Policy), we also collect standard analytics data: pages visited, approximate location (country/region level), device and browser type, and how you arrived at the site.

Why we use it, and our legal basis

  • To respond to your enquiry and discuss the services you have asked about — legal basis: legitimate interests (taking steps at your request before entering into a contract).
  • To keep a record of enquiries and client communications for our own business administration — legitimate interests.
  • To understand how the site is used (pages visited, general traffic patterns) so we can improve it — legal basis: your consent, given via the cookie banner. You can withdraw this at any time; see Cookies Policy.

We do not use your data for automated decision-making, profiling with legal effect, or for sale to third parties.

Who we share it with

We do not sell your data. We use a small number of service providers (processors) to run this site and respond to enquiries:

  • Google — form submissions are emailed via Gmail and, where configured, logged in a private Google Sheet, both under our own Google account.
  • Google Analytics — website usage analytics, only if you accept analytics cookies.
  • Vercel — hosts this website and provides cookieless aggregate traffic analytics (Vercel Web Analytics).

These providers may process data on servers outside the UK/EEA (for example, in the United States). Where that happens, it relies on that provider's own standard contractual clauses or another lawful transfer mechanism recognised under UK GDPR.

How long we keep it

We keep enquiry data for as long as needed to respond to you and follow up, and for up to 24 months afterwards for our own business records, unless you ask us to delete it sooner or we are required to keep it longer for legal or accounting reasons. Analytics data is retained according to the relevant provider's own default retention settings.

Your rights

Under UK GDPR, you have the right to:

  • Ask what personal data we hold about you and get a copy of it (access)
  • Ask us to correct inaccurate data (rectification)
  • Ask us to delete your data (erasure), where applicable
  • Ask us to restrict or object to certain processing
  • Ask for your data in a portable format
  • Withdraw consent for analytics cookies at any time

To exercise any of these, email [email protected]. If you are not satisfied with our response, you can complain to the UK Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk.

Children

This site is intended for UK business owners and decision-makers. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children.
