If you have any questions about this policy or how we handle your data, contact us using the details in Section 10.

4. How We Use Your Data and Our Legal Basis

5. Cookies and Tracking

Our website uses cookies and similar technologies, including analytics tools (such as Google Analytics) and, where applicable, advertising/marketing cookies, to understand how visitors use our site and to measure the effectiveness of our marketing.

• Strictly necessary cookies are used without consent, as permitted under PECR, as they are essential for the site to function.
• Analytics and marketing cookies are only set with your consent, obtained via a cookie banner when you first visit our site. You can change or withdraw your consent at any time through our cookie settings tool [link/insert] or your browser settings.

For more detail on the specific cookies we use, see our [Cookie Policy — insert link if separate].

6. Email Marketing

If you sign up to our newsletter, we will send you marketing emails about our products, offers, and updates, based on your consent.

• Every marketing email includes an unsubscribe link.
• You can unsubscribe at any time by clicking that link or emailing us at [insert email].
• We keep a record of consent (when and how it was given) as required by PECR and UK GDPR.

7. Who We Share Your Data With

We do not sell your personal data. We may share it with:

• Service providers who process data on our behalf (e.g. email marketing platform, website hosting, analytics providers), under data processing agreements requiring them to protect your data.
• Regulators or authorities, where required by law.

Where any service provider is located outside the UK (e.g. in the US), we ensure an appropriate safeguard is in place, such as the UK International Data Transfer Addendum to the EU Standard Contractual Clauses, or reliance on an adequacy decision.

8. Your Rights

Under UK GDPR, you have the right to:

• Access the personal data we hold about you
• Rectify inaccurate or incomplete data
• Erase your data (“right to be forgotten”)
• Restrict how we use your data
• Object to processing, including direct marketing (you can unsubscribe at any time)
• Data portability — receive your data in a portable format
• Withdraw consent at any time, where processing is based on consent

To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details in Section 10. We will respond within one month, as required by law.

You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) if you believe we have not handled your data properly:

• Website: ico.org.uk
• Helpline: 0303 123 1113

9. How Long We Keep Your Data

We keep contact details (name and email) for as long as you remain subscribed to our mailing list or have an active relationship with us, and for a reasonable period afterwards to comply with legal obligations or resolve disputes. If you unsubscribe, we retain a minimal record (e.g. your email address and unsubscribe date) to ensure we do not contact you again, unless you ask us to delete it entirely.
