What we collect
We collect only what we need to operate the site, respond to requests, and improve our services. The exact information depends on how you interact with us.
Information you provide
Name, email, phone number, company/project details, and the content of your message when you contact us.
Basic technical data
IP address, browser type, device information, and pages visited. This helps keep the site secure and functioning.
Cookie choices
Your preference for optional analytics cookies. Essential cookies are required to deliver core site functions.
No sensitive data by default
Please do not send sensitive personal data (health, biometrics, etc.). If you do, we will handle it with care and minimize retention.
How we use information
We use personal data to respond to inquiries, provide requested information about our services and programs, schedule calls, and maintain a record of communications.
We may use aggregated, non-identifying information to understand how the website is used and to improve performance, accessibility, and content quality. Optional analytics, if enabled, are used only after you accept optional cookies.
We also use data to protect against fraud, abuse, and security incidents, and to comply with legal obligations.

Legitimate interests: to run and secure our website, respond to requests, and improve our services, provided those interests are not overridden by your rights.
Contract: where processing is necessary to take steps at your request before entering into a contract or to perform a contract.
Legal obligation: where we must comply with applicable laws.

We use cookies to provide essential site functionality and to store your cookie preference. Optional analytics cookies are disabled unless you accept them. You can change your choice by clearing cookies in your browser and revisiting the site.

If data is transferred outside the UK, we use appropriate safeguards such as adequacy decisions or standard contractual clauses.
Retention
We keep personal data only as long as necessary for the purposes described above. Contact messages are typically retained for up to 24 months to maintain continuity and respond to follow-ups, unless a longer period is required by law or a contract. We may keep anonymized or aggregated information longer.

Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict processing, object to processing, and request portability. You may also have the right to lodge a complaint with the UK Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO).
How to exercise rights
Email [email protected] with your request. We may ask for information to verify your identity.
Security
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect personal data. No system is perfectly secure, but we work to reduce risk and limit access to those who need it.
