Privacy Policy

1.Information we collect

Information you provide

When you contact me through the Website, by email, or through a contact form, I may collect the information you choose to share, such as your name, email address, business or website details, and the contents of your message.

Information collected automatically

When you visit the Website, certain information may be collected automatically through cookies and analytics tools, including your IP address, browser type, device information, pages viewed, and how you arrived at the Website. This information is used in aggregate to understand how the Website is used.

2.How we use your information

I use the information collected for the following purposes:

• To respond to your enquiries and provide the services you request
• To communicate with you about your project or audit
• To operate, maintain, and improve the Website
• To understand how visitors use the Website through analytics
• To comply with legal obligations where applicable

I do not use your information for automated decision-making that produces legal or similarly significant effects.

3.Cookies and tracking

The Website may use cookies and similar technologies to function correctly and to understand how it is used. Cookies are small text files stored on your device. You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings, although some parts of the Website may not work as intended if you do.

The Website may use analytics cookies, such as those provided by Google Analytics, to collect anonymous usage data. This helps me see which pages are useful and how the Website can be improved.

4.Third-party services

I rely on a small number of trusted third-party services to operate the Website and communicate with you. These may include:

• Website hosting and security providers
• Analytics providers, such as Google Analytics
• Email and communication providers

These providers process information only as needed to deliver their services and are expected to handle your information responsibly. Each may have its own privacy policy governing how it uses data.

5.How we share information

I do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. Your information may be shared only in these limited situations:

• With service providers who help operate the Website, under appropriate confidentiality
• Where required by law, regulation, or valid legal process
• To protect the rights, property, or safety of the Website, its users, or others

6.Data retention

I keep your information only for as long as needed to respond to your enquiry, deliver services, and meet any legal or record-keeping requirements. When information is no longer needed, it is deleted or anonymised.

7.Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the following rights over your personal information:

• The right to access the information held about you
• The right to correct inaccurate information
• The right to request deletion of your information
• The right to object to or restrict certain processing
• The right to data portability
• The right to withdraw consent at any time

To exercise any of these rights, please contact me using the details below. I will respond within a reasonable timeframe and in line with applicable law.

8.Data security

I take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect your information against loss, misuse, and unauthorised access. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure, so I cannot guarantee absolute security.

9.International data transfers

I work with clients and providers around the world, so your information may be processed in countries other than your own. Where that happens, I take reasonable steps to ensure your information remains protected in line with this policy.

10.Children's privacy

The Website is intended for business owners and professionals and is not directed at children. I do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under the age of 16. If you believe a child has provided information, please contact me and I will delete it.

11.Links to other websites

The Website may contain links to third-party websites, such as LinkedIn or client case studies. I am not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those websites. I encourage you to review the privacy policy of any website you visit.

12.Changes to this policy

I may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in how the Website operates or in legal requirements. The latest version will always be posted on this page with an updated date at the top.
