What We Collect
We collect the information you provide when you use our contact form, namely your name, email address and organisation. In addition, we automatically gather anonymised usage data via Google Analytics and search query data via Google Search Console. This also includes technical details such as your IP address, browser type, device information and timestamps of your visits.
Purpose and Legal Basis
We use the information you submit via the contact form in order to respond to your enquiries, relying on your consent under GDPR Article 6(1)(a). We analyse anonymised site usage through Google Analytics and Google Search Console to improve our content and performance, which is covered by our legitimate interest under Article 6(1)(f). We also process technical data as necessary to maintain the security and integrity of our website, another legitimate interest under Article 6(1)(f). You are free to withdraw your consent at any time without affecting any processing carried out before you withdrew consent.
Cookie Policy
Cookies are small files stored on your device that help us to provide a better browsing experience. We use essential cookies to manage secure sessions and prevent fraud. We also deploy analytics cookies through Google Analytics to understand how visitors interact with our site—we have enabled IP anonymisation so that individual users cannot be identified. Finally, we use Google Search Console cookies to monitor search performance and detect any issues. You can control or delete cookies via your browser settings at any time.
