4. Data Security & Third-Party Processing

We have put in place appropriate security measures to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used, or accessed in an unauthorized way, altered, or disclosed. We limit access to your personal data to those employees, agents, contractors, and other third parties who have a business need to know.

To deliver our services, we utilize trusted third-party processors (such as Formspree for secure form transmission). These processors are strictly bound by confidentiality and UK GDPR data processing agreements.

5. Data Retention

We will only retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.
