Under UK GDPR, we must have a lawful basis for processing your personal data. We rely on the
following:

Purpose Legal Basis
Responding to enquiries Legitimate interests (to respond to business contact)
Delivering contracted services Performance of a contract
Website analytics Legitimate interests / Consent (where cookies require it)
Follow-up communications Legitimate interests (you have expressed interest in our services)

Where we rely on legitimate interests, we have assessed that our interests do not override your rights and freedoms. You have the right to object to this processing at any time (see Section 7).

5. How Long We Keep Your Data

We only keep your data for as long as necessary:

  • Enquiry and contact data — up to 2 years from the date of your last contact, unless you
    become a client.
  • Client records — retained for up to 6 years after the end of the working relationship, in line
    with UK tax and legal requirements.
  • Analytics data — retained within Google Analytics in accordance with our configured
    retention settings (typically 14–26 months).
  • Booking data — retained for up to 12 months after the booking date.

After these periods, data is securely deleted.

6. Who We Share Your Data With

We do not sell your personal data to third parties. Ever.

We may share your data with trusted third-party tools and platforms that help us run our business,
including:

  • Google Analytics — website analytics (Google LLC, US-based, subject to EU-US Data, Privacy Framework and UK adequacy arrangements)
  • Booking software — to manage strategy call scheduling (e.g. Calendly or equivalent)
  • Email platforms — to manage and send communications

All third-party processors we use are required to handle your data securely and only for the purposes we specify. Where these providers are based outside the UK, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place.

  • Access — request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.

    feasible.

  • Objection — object to processing based on legitimate interests at any time.
