  • Consent — for marketing communications, where you have explicitly opted in.

Data sharing

We do not sell, rent or trade your personal data. We may share it with trusted third parties only where necessary to operate our business, including:

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary for the purposes it was collected. Enquiry data is typically retained for up to 24 months. If we engage you as a client, we retain relevant data for the duration of our working relationship and for a reasonable period afterwards in line with our legal obligations.

You can request deletion of your data at any time (see Your Rights below).
