How we get the personal information and why we have it

Most of the personal information we process is provided to us directly by you for one of the following reasons:

  • You used a contact form on our website
  • You directly contacted us via email

We use the information that you have given us in order to contact you regarding a project query.

We will not transfer your personal information to any third party without seeking your consent, except in limited circumstances as described as follows: Analytics.

We may also disclose your personal information for the following: (1) to comply with applicable law, regulation, court order or other legal process; (2) to enforce your agreements with us, including this Privacy Policy; or (3) to respond to claims that your use of the Service violates any third-party rights. If the Service or our company is merged or acquired with another company, your information will be one of the assets that is transferred to the new owner.

Under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the lawful bases we rely on for processing this information are:

How we store your personal information

Your information is securely stored on a private AWS WorkMail directory.

We retain Personal Information where we have an ongoing legitimate business or legal need to do so. Our retention periods will vary depending on the type of data involved, but, generally, we'll refer to these criteria in order to determine retention period:

  • Whether we have a legal or contractual need to retain the data.
  • Whether the data is necessary to provide our Service.
  • Whether our Subscribers would reasonably expect that we would retain the data until they remove it or until their subscriptions are terminated.

When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your Personal Information, we will either delete or anonymize it or, if this is not possible (for example, because your Personal Information has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your Personal Information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.
