We do not send bulk marketing emails without your explicit consent. If you contact us, we may reply to your enquiry. You may opt out of optional marketing at any time by emailing us or withdrawing cookie consent for marketing technologies.

Recipients and processors

We may share personal data with trusted service providers who process data on our instructions, including:

  • Website hosting and infrastructure providers
  • Email delivery services
  • Analytics providers (only with consent)
  • Advertising platform providers (only with consent)

We require processors to protect data under written terms consistent with UK GDPR. We do not sell your personal data.

International transfers

Some providers may process data outside the United Kingdom. Where this occurs, we implement appropriate safeguards such as the UK International Data Transfer Agreement, UK Addendum to EU Standard Contractual Clauses, or reliance on regulations specifying adequate protection, as applicable.

Retention

  • Contact enquiries: up to 24 months from the last message, unless a longer period is required for legal claims or compliance.
  • Server logs: up to 12 months.
  • Cookie consent records: up to 12 months on your device unless cleared earlier.
  • Analytics and advertising data (if consented): according to the relevant provider's settings, typically up to 26 months, unless you withdraw consent sooner.

When retention ends, we delete or anonymise data where possible.

Security

We apply appropriate technical and organisational measures, including HTTPS, access controls, and staff confidentiality practices, to protect personal data against unauthorised access, loss, or disclosure.

Automated decision-making

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