We may gather information about your general internet use by using the cookie. Where used, these cookies are downloaded to your computer and stored on the computer’s hard drive.

Google Ads Enhanced Conversions
We use Google Ads Enhanced Conversions to help measure the performance of our paid advertising campaigns more accurately. This feature uses information you voluntarily submit on our website such as your email address or phone number during a form submission to match ad interactions with subsequent actions on our site.
Before any data is transmitted to Google, it is securely encrypted using the SHA256 hashing algorithm, converting the information into a non-reversible, coded format. Google uses this hashed data solely for aggregated and anonymised conversion reporting, and in line with its strict privacy standards. No personally identifiable information is shared with Google in a readable form. You can learn more about how Google handles this data here.
-
Administrative Access and Impersonation
In limited circumstances, authorised members of our internal commercial operations team (designated CRM Administrators) may access client accounts through a secure impersonation feature. This is used solely to verify that clients have the appropriate access to the products and services they have subscribed to, troubleshoot user experience issues, or provide customer support.
While impersonating an account, CRM Administrators may view certain Personal Data associated with your account. This access is strictly controlled, auditable, and used only for the purposes described above. We do not use this functionality for any form of profiling or marketing, and impersonation activity is logged and monitored to ensure accountability and compliance with our data protection obligations.
This practice is based on our legitimate interest in ensuring proper delivery of services and customer support, and does not result in the processing of any additional categories of Personal Data beyond what we already collect and maintain in accordance with this Notice.
Use of Artificial Intelligence (AI)
We use artificial intelligence (AI) tools to support internal operations such as:- Categorising company records within our CRM
- Predicting the likelihood of sales conversion based on anonymised behavioural and transactional signals
These models are trained on aggregated and de-identified data. No decisions are made solely by automated means that produce legal or similarly significant effects on individuals.
This processing is based on our legitimate interest in improving service efficiency and sales operations. Human oversight is always applied where decisions influence outcomes.

Most of these entities are contractually bound to use the Personal Data they receive only for the purposes of fulfilling their contractual obligations);
- business partners (e.g., advertisers and advertising networks) that require the data to select and serve relevant adverts to you and others. We do not disclose information about identifiable individuals to such third parties, but we will provide them with anonymized aggregate information about our users (for example, we may inform them that 500 men aged under 30 have clicked on their advertisement on any given day). We may also use such aggregate information to help advertisers reach the kind of audience they want to target (for example, women in a particular city location). We may make use of the Personal Data we have collected from you to enable us to comply with our advertisers’ wishes by displaying their advertisement to that target audience;

From time to time, we may partner with third-party organisations, professional bodies, or institutes (for example, industry associations, research institutes or event partners) to host joint events, webinars or other collaborative activities.

In certain circumstances, and where you have consented or where permitted under applicable law, we may also share registration information (such as your name, company, role, and email address) with the co-hosting partner for their own use in relation to the event or for subsequent direct communications. Such partners will act as independent data controllers in respect of any Personal Data shared with them, and their own privacy policies will apply to their handling of your information.

-
Data retention
We retain Personal Data we collect from you only for as long as it is needed for the purposes described above in “We use information held about you in the following ways,” or as otherwise required or permitted by law. When we have no ongoing legitimate business need or purpose to process your Personal Data, we will either delete or anonymize it, or, if this is not possible (for example, because your Personal Data has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your Personal Data and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.

Your rights
If you are an individual covered by this Privacy Notice, under certain circumstances, and subject to which laws apply, you may have the following rights under data protection laws in relation to your Personal Data:
- ACCESS: The right to request access to the Personal Data we hold about you. This enables you to receive a copy of the Personal Data we hold about you and to check that we are processing it lawfully.
- RECTIFICATION: The right to request correction of the Personal Data we hold about you. This enables you to have any incomplete or inaccurate data we hold about you corrected, though we may need to verify the accuracy of any new data you provide to us.
- ERASURE: The right to request we erase your Personal Data in certain circumstances. This enables you to ask us to delete or remove Personal Data where there is no good reason for us to continue to process it. You also have the right to ask us to delete or remove your Personal Data where you have successfully exercised your right to object to processing (see below), where we may have processed your information unlawfully or where we are required to erase your Personal Data to comply with local law. Note, however, that we may not always be able to comply with your request of erasure for specific legal reasons which will be notified to you, if applicable, at the time of your request.
- RESTRICTION OF PROCESSING: In certain circumstances you can request that we suspend the processing of your Personal Data.
- OBJECT: The right to ask us not to process your Personal Data in certain circumstances. Specifically, where we are relying on a legitimate interest (or those of a third party) and there is something about your particular situation which makes you want to object to processing on this ground as you feel it impacts on your fundamental rights and freedoms. You also have the right to object where we are processing your Personal Data for direct marketing purposes. In some cases, we may demonstrate that we have compelling legitimate grounds to process your information which override your rights and freedoms. You may also object to any processing involving profiling or automated decision-making, including any AI-supported analysis, where this affects your rights or freedoms.
- PORTABILITY: In certain circumstances, you can request the transfer of your Personal Data to you or a third party. We will provide to you, or a third party you have chosen, your Personal Data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format.
Where we are relying on consent to process your Personal Data you have the right to withdraw your consent. However, this will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before you withdraw your consent.
If you withdraw your consent, we may not be able to provide certain products or services to you. We will advise you if this is the case at the time you withdraw your consent.
You are not required to pay any charge for exercising your rights. However, we may charge a reasonable fee if your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive or excessive. Alternatively, we could refuse to comply with your request in these circumstances.
If you wish to exercise any of the rights set out above, please contact us at the details in section 1(c) above. We try to respond to all legitimate requests within one month. Occasionally it could take us longer than a month if your request is particularly complex or you have made a number of requests. In this case, we will notify you and keep you updated.
