We use cookies and similar technologies to operate our site, remember your preferences, and measure performance. For details on types of cookies, providers, retention periods, and how to manage settings, see our Cookie Policy. You can adjust cookie preferences via our cookie banner or your browser settings. Essential cookies cannot be turned off as they keep the site working.
We may use analytics and advertising tools such as Google Analytics, Meta Pixel, LinkedIn Insight Tag to understand performance and show relevant content. These providers may set their own cookies and act as independent controllers for parts of the processing. Check their policies for more information.
We share personal data only when needed, for example with:
Service providers – hosting, email and SMS tools, CRM, helpdesk, analytics, payment processors, delivery partners.
Professional advisers – accountants, auditors, legal counsel, insurers.
Business partners – where you ask us to connect you, or where a co-branded service is clearly described.
Authorities – where required by law or to protect rights.
Corporate transactions – if we restructure, merge, or sell parts of the business, data may transfer under appropriate safeguards.
We require processors to keep data secure, use it only under our instructions, and delete it when finished.
Some providers are located outside the UK. Where we transfer data internationally, we use appropriate safeguards such as the UK International Data Transfer Agreement, the UK Addendum to the EU Standard Contractual Clauses, or an adequacy regulation.
We keep personal data only as long as necessary for the purposes described above, then delete or anonymise it. Typical examples:
Contract and transaction records – up to 7 years for tax and accounting.
Marketing data – until you unsubscribe or after 24 months of inactivity.
Account data – while your account is active, then 12 months.
Recruitment data – 6 months after the process ends unless you agree we keep it longer.

We use administrative, technical, and organisational measures to protect personal data, including encryption in transit, access controls, and regular reviews. No system is completely secure, so please take care with your own credentials and devices.
If you use any automated scoring, credit checks, or profiling for ads or risk, explain it plainly here, including logic involved, significance, and consequences, plus how users can request human review.
Our site may link to third-party websites. Those sites have their own privacy policies, and we are not responsible for their content or practices.
