- Information about your business situation that you share voluntarily during enquiries or sessions
- Website usage data collected via cookies and analytics tools (see Section 5)

We do not collect sensitive personal data (financial records, identity documents) unless you choose to share them directly in the context of an advisory engagement.
3. How We Collect Data
- Directly from you — when you submit our contact form, email us, or call us
- Automatically — when you browse our website, through cookies and server logs
- During advisory sessions — information you share in the course of our work together
Legal bases for processing: consent (where you have submitted a form or agreed to cookies), legitimate interest (managing client enquiries and improving our service), and contract (delivering advisory services you have engaged us for).
4. How We Use Your Data

We do not use your data for automated decision-making or profiling. We do not sell your data to third parties. We do not send marketing emails unless you have explicitly opted in.
5. Cookies & Analytics
Our website uses cookies to understand how visitors interact with our pages and to maintain basic functionality. These may include essential cookies (required for the site to function), analytics cookies (to understand usage patterns) and preference cookies (to remember your settings).
We use third-party analytics tools such as Google Analytics, which collect anonymised usage data. You can manage your cookie preferences via the banner on our homepage or by visiting our Cookie Policy.

We never share client information with other clients or use it for case studies without explicit written consent.

Enquiry data is retained for up to 12 months if no engagement follows. Client engagement records are retained for up to 7 years following the end of the engagement, in line with standard professional and legal requirements. Analytics data is retained for 26 months in anonymised form.
After the applicable retention period, data is securely deleted or anonymised.
8. Data Security
We apply appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration or destruction. These include access controls, encrypted email where appropriate, and regular review of our data handling practices.
