Sharing your data
We only share personal data where it is necessary to operate the business and website, comply with the law or provide the service you request. Providers may include our website hosting and form provider, email provider, professional advisers and Google Analytics when you consent. These providers process information under their own terms or our instructions as appropriate. We do not sell your personal data.
International transfers
Some service providers may process information outside the United Kingdom. Where this happens, we use appropriate safeguards required by UK data protection law, such as UK adequacy regulations or approved contractual protections.
Data retention
We keep personal data only for as long as necessary for the purposes described above and to meet legal, accounting or reporting requirements. Enquiry records are typically kept for up to 24 months unless they lead to work, form part of business records, or need to be retained longer to establish or defend legal claims. Analytics information is retained in accordance with our Google Analytics settings and is only collected after consent.

Depending on the circumstances, you may have the right to:
- Access the personal data we hold about you.
- Ask us to correct or delete your personal data.
