What information I collect
If you use the contact form or email me, I collect the information you provide, typically your name, organisation, email address and the content of your message. I don’t ask for any sensitive personal information and please don’t include any in your message.

How I use it
I use your information only to respond to your enquiry and, where relevant, to discuss and deliver professional services. My lawful basis is legitimate interests in responding to business enquiries, or steps taken at your request before entering into a contract. I won’t add you to a mailing list or use your details for marketing without your consent.

Sharing your information
I don’t sell or share your information with third parties, except service providers who help run this website and my business, such as my website host (Squarespace) and email provider (Microsoft). They process data on my behalf under appropriate safeguards. Some of these providers may store data outside the UK in which case they use approved safeguards such as standard contractual clauses.

How long I keep it
I keep enquiry correspondence for as long as needed to respond and for up to two years afterwards, unless it leads to a commission. In that case, project records are kept in line with professional and legal requirements, usually up to seven years.

Your rights
You have the right to access, correct or delete your personal data, to object to or restrict how it’s used, and to request a copy in a portable format. To use any of these rights, contact me as above. If you’re unhappy with how your data has been handled, you can complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ico.org.uk).
