We are committed to protecting your personal data and handling it in accordance with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018.

2. Information We Collect

We may collect the following types of information:

Information you provide directly. This includes any details you submit through forms on the Site — for example, your name, email address, phone number, company name, or message content. See Section 6 for details on our embedded form provider.

Information collected automatically. When you visit the Site, we (and our third-party providers) may automatically collect certain information about your device and browsing activity, including:

3. How We Use Your Information

  • IP address and approximate location
  • Browser type and version
  • Device type and operating system
  • Pages visited, time spent, and referring URLs
  • Date and time of your visit

Cookies and similar technologies. We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to operate the Site, remember your preferences, and analyse traffic. See Section 7 for more.

We use the information we collect to:

  • Operate, maintain, and improve the Site
  • Respond to enquiries and communicate with you
  • Process and follow up on form submissions
  • Analyse how the Site is used so we can improve it
  • Send updates or marketing communications, where you have consented

4. Our Legal Basis for Processing

5. How We Share Your Information

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

  • Consent — where you have given clear, affirmative permission (e.g. signing up to a newsletter or accepting non-essential cookies)
  • Contract — where processing is necessary to provide a service you have requested
  • Legitimate interests — where processing is necessary for our legitimate business interests (e.g. responding to an enquiry or improving the Site) and does not override your rights and freedoms
  • Legal obligation — where we are required to process data to comply with the law

Where we rely on consent, you can withdraw it at any time by contacting us at [PRIVACY CONTACT EMAIL]. Withdrawing consent will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before you withdrew it.

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

  • Service providers (processors) who help us operate the Site (e.g. hosting, analytics, form processing), acting only on our instructions
  • Legal and regulatory authorities where required by law
  • Professional advisers such as lawyers or accountants, where necessary

A list of the main third-party providers we rely on appears in Sections 6 and 7.

6. Third-Party Form

7. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

Parts of our Site link to a form from Famly to collect submissions (for example, contact requests or registration sign-ups).

When you complete and submit this form, the information you enter is collected and processed by Famly on our behalf. This may include your name, email address, phone number, and message.

8. Data Retention

The provider may set its own cookies and collect technical information (such as your IP address) as part of delivering and securing the form. Your use of the form is also subject to Famly’s own privacy policy, linked above.

We only use the information submitted through the form for the purpose for which it was provided — for example, responding to your enquiry — and in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

10. Your Rights

We use cookies and similar technologies for the following purposes:

  • Essential cookies — required for the Site to function (these do not require consent)
  • Analytics cookies — to understand how visitors use the Site (e.g. Google Analytics and Meta Pixel)
  • Functional cookies — to remember your preferences
  • Marketing cookies — to deliver relevant content, where you have consented

Under the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR) and UK GDPR, we will ask for your consent before setting any non-essential cookies. You can manage your preferences at any time through our cookie banner, and you can also control or disable cookies through your browser settings. Disabling certain cookies may affect how the Site functions.

9. Keeping Your Data Secure

11. Children’s Privacy

We keep your personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes described in this policy, unless a longer retention period is required by law. When information is no longer needed, we securely delete or anonymise it.
