Privacy Policy

Data we collect

Information you provide voluntarily: When you submit a form on our site (e.g. contact form, newsletter signup, lead capture), we collect the information you provide — typically your email address and any other details you choose to share.

Technical data collected automatically: Our hosting providers and infrastructure log standard request data including IP address, browser type, referring URL, pages visited, and timestamps. This data is used for security, rate-limiting, and aggregate analytics.

Aggregate analytics: We use Cloudflare Web Analytics, which is a privacy-friendly analytics service that does not use cookies and does not collect personally identifiable information. It provides aggregate data on page views and traffic sources.

We do not use advertising cookies or share data with advertising networks.

Why we use your data (legal basis under UK GDPR)

Sharing your data

We do not sell your data. We may share it with:

• Service providers that help us operate the site (e.g. Vercel for hosting, Supabase for database, Cloudflare for security and analytics, Resend for transactional email if applicable). These providers process data on our behalf under written agreements.
• Partner organizations where you have explicitly requested or consented to a referral (e.g. solicitors, advisers). The specific partners and the data shared will be disclosed at the point of consent.
• Legal authorities where required by law.

We do not transfer data outside the UK or EEA unless we have appropriate safeguards in place under UK GDPR (e.g. Standard Contractual Clauses, adequacy decisions). Some of our service providers (notably Vercel and Supabase) may store data in the United States under such safeguards.

How long we keep your data

We retain data only as long as necessary for the purposes described:

• Form submissions: up to 24 months unless you request earlier deletion
• Aggregate analytics: indefinite, but no individuals can be identified
• Server logs: typically 30–90 days
