This Site may use essential cookies (to make it work) and optional cookies (for analytics or embedded content).

• If analytics (e.g., Google Analytics 4) are used, they help understand how the Site is used.

• Legal/Regulatory bodies if required by law.
  
  

I don’t sell your data.

Some providers may store data outside the UK. Where this happens, I rely on appropriate safeguards (e.g., adequacy regulations or standard contractual clauses).

7. How long I keep data

• Enquiry data: normally 12 months from last contact, unless needed longer for a query or legal reasons.
  
  

• Analytics data: retained per the analytics tool’s settings (typically 14–26 months).
  I’ll keep data only as long as necessary for the purposes above.
