Who we are

We take your privacy seriously. This policy explains what personal data we collect, how we use it, and your rights under UK data protection law (UK GDPR).

What data we collect

We only collect personal data when you voluntarily provide it by completing the contact form on this website. This may include:

We also collect anonymised usage data via Google Analytics (see Cookies section below), but only if you have given your consent via the cookie banner. This data cannot be used to identify you personally.

How we use your data

We will never sell, rent, or share your personal data with third parties for marketing purposes.

Legal basis for processing

We process your personal data on the basis of legitimate interests — specifically, to respond to your enquiry and conduct our business. Where you request a service, processing is also necessary for the performance of a contract.

Third-party processors

Contact form submissions are processed by Formspree (formspree.io), which forwards them to our email inbox. Formspree acts as a data processor on our behalf. You can review their privacy policy at formspree.io/legal/privacy-policy.

If you consent to analytics cookies, your usage data is also processed by Google Analytics (Google Ireland Limited). Google Analytics uses cookies to collect anonymised information about how visitors use this site — pages visited, session duration, device type, and approximate location. This data is used solely to help us understand and improve the website. Google acts as a data processor under a Data Processing Agreement. You can review Google's privacy policy at policies.google.com/privacy. You can opt out of Google Analytics at any time by declining cookies via the banner on this site, or by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

Your cookie preference is stored in your browser's local storage. You can change your preference at any time by clearing your browser's local storage or site data for this domain.

The legal basis for setting analytics cookies is your consent (UK GDPR Article 6(1)(a) and PECR Regulation 6). You can withdraw consent at any time.

How long we keep your data

We retain enquiry data (your name, contact details, and message) for up to 12 months after our last communication. If you become a client, we retain project-related information for up to 6 years in line with standard UK business record-keeping requirements.

You can ask us to delete your data at any time — see Your Rights below.
