Our Lawful Bases for Processing

Under UK-GDPR, we must have a lawful basis for processing personal data. We rely on one or more of the following lawful bases:

• Consent – when you have given us clear permission.

• Contract – when processing is necessary for a contract with you or to take steps before entering into a contract.

• Legal obligation – when we must comply with the law.

• Legitimate interests – when processing is necessary for our legitimate business interests and does not override your rights.

Use of Third-Party Platforms and Processors

We use a secure, white-labelled version of the Go High Level (GHL) platform to host our website forms, manage our customer relationship database, and send email communications via the LeadConnector Email System. This platform acts as a data processor on our behalf.

Your data may be processed or stored outside the UK, including in the United States. Where this occurs, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place, such as the UK International Data Transfer Agreement (IDTA) or Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs), to ensure your information remains protected.

Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We may use cookies, tracking pixels, and similar technologies to improve your experience, analyse website traffic, and personalise content. Some of these technologies may be provided by third-party service providers. Non-essential cookies will only be used with your consent, which you can manage via our cookie banner or your browser settings. For more details, see our Cookie Policy.

Marketing Communications

We may send you marketing emails if you have opted in, purchased from us and not opted out, or where otherwise permitted by law. You can withdraw consent or opt out at any time by clicking the 'unsubscribe' link in our emails or contacting us.

International Data Transfers

Where we transfer your data outside the UK, we ensure adequate protection by using lawful transfer mechanisms such as the UK International Data Transfer Agreement or Standard Contractual Clauses.

How Long We Keep Information

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary for the purposes it was collected, or as required by law. For example:

• Marketing email list – until you unsubscribe or after 24 months of inactivity

• Event registration details – 6 months after the event

• Customer purchase records – 6 years (legal requirement)

• Enquiry forms – 12 months
