We process personal data under the following lawful bases:
Under the UK GDPR, you have the following rights regarding your personal data:
You may request a copy of the personal data we hold about you. We will respond to such requests within one month.
You may request correction of any inaccurate or incomplete personal data we hold about you.
In certain circumstances, you may request deletion of your personal data. This applies when the data is no longer necessary for its original purpose, when you withdraw consent, or when you object to processing based on legitimate interests.
You may request that we restrict processing of your data in certain circumstances, such as when you contest the accuracy of the data or when you have objected to processing.
Where processing is based on consent or contract and carried out by automated means, you may request your data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format.
You may object to processing based on legitimate interests. We will cease processing unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds.
We do not engage in automated decision-making or profiling that produces legal effects or similarly significant impacts.
To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the details provided above. We may need to verify your identity before processing your request. We will respond within one month, though this period may be extended by two further months for complex requests.
If you believe your data protection rights have been infringed, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO):

We encourage you to contact us first so we may address your concerns directly.
We maintain records of our processing activities as required under Article 30 of the UK GDPR. These records document the categories of data processed, purposes, recipients, and retention periods.
Where processing is likely to result in high risk to individuals, we conduct Data Protection Impact Assessments to identify and mitigate risks before processing begins.
Personal data is primarily processed within the United Kingdom. Where transfers to third countries occur, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place, such as standard contractual clauses or adequacy decisions.
We review and update this GDPR information periodically to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements.
