Our lawful bases
Depending on the activity, we may process personal information because it is necessary to take steps before entering into a contract, to perform a contract, to comply with a legal obligation, because we have a legitimate interest in operating and developing our business, or on the basis of consent where consent is required.
Sharing personal information
We do not sell personal information. Where necessary, we may share information with trusted service providers that support our business operations, such as website hosting, email, banking, accounting and professional advisers, with clients where necessary for an engagement, or where disclosure is required by law. We seek to limit sharing to the information needed for the relevant purpose.
International transfers
Some suppliers or systems may process personal information outside the UK. Where this occurs, we will use an appropriate lawful transfer mechanism and safeguards where required. Our supplier and transfer arrangements are reviewed as our systems develop.
How we protect your information
We use appropriate technical and organisational measures designed to protect personal information, including controlled access to business systems and security measures appropriate to the nature of the information being handled.
How long we keep information
We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, taking account of contractual, legal, accounting, insurance and dispute-management requirements. Retention periods are reviewed periodically.
Your rights
Depending on the circumstances, you may have rights to access your personal information, correct inaccurate information, request erasure, restrict processing, receive certain information in a portable format, object to certain processing, and rights relating to automated decision-making. Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw that consent.
