    Where UK/EU data protection laws apply, we rely on one or more of the following legal bases:
  • Contract: to provide services or take steps you request before entering a contract
  • Legitimate interests: to operate our business, respond to enquiries, improve services, and maintain security (balanced against your rights)
  • Consent: where required (for example, certain marketing communications or optional cookies)
  • Legal obligation: where we must comply with law, regulation, or lawful requests
  1. When we share your information
    We may share personal information only as needed for business purposes, such as:

A) Service providers and processors
We use trusted third-party providers to help run our business, such as:

  • website hosting and analytics providers
  • CRM or support tools
  • email and communications tools
  • cloud storage / collaboration tools
  • payment processors (if applicable)

These providers are permitted to use your data only to perform services for us and must protect it.

We do not sell or share mobile opt-in information (phone numbers collected for SMS consent) with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes.

B) Communications platforms
If you communicate with us through platforms such as Microsoft Teams, email, or SMS providers, your messages may be processed through those platforms to deliver the communication.

C) Legal and safety
We may disclose information if required to comply with law, court orders, or lawful requests, or to protect rights, safety, and security.

D) Business transfers
If we are involved in a merger, acquisition, financing, reorganisation, or sale of assets, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction, subject to appropriate safeguards.

Message frequency varies depending on your project activity.

Mobile opt-in data protection: No mobile information will be shared with third parties/affiliates for marketing/promotional purposes. Information may be shared only with service providers who help us deliver messaging services (for example, messaging/telecommunications platforms) and only to the extent necessary to provide those services.

Opting in
You will only receive SMS messages from us if you have provided your phone number and agreed to receive SMS through a clear opt-in method (for example, a form checkbox, a written agreement, or a keyword-based opt-in).
