5. Our lawful bases
We only process personal information where we have a lawful basis.
5.1 Contract
We may process personal information where it is necessary to:
- provide services under a contract;
- take requested steps before entering into a contract;
- prepare a proposal or quotation;
- manage a client relationship; or
- fulfil our contractual obligations.
5.2 Legitimate interests
We may rely on legitimate interests where the processing is reasonably necessary for our business or the legitimate interests of another organisation, provided those interests are not overridden by your rights and freedoms.
Our legitimate interests may include:
- operating and growing our business;
- responding to business enquiries;
- managing relationships with clients, prospective clients, suppliers and partners;
- identifying organisations that may benefit from our services;
- conducting relevant business-to-business marketing;
- maintaining accurate CRM records;
- measuring and improving our marketing;
- improving our services and website;
- preventing fraud and protecting our systems; and
- establishing, exercising or defending legal claims.
Where we rely on legitimate interests, we consider the nature of the information, the context in which it was collected, whether you would reasonably expect the processing, the likely impact on you and the safeguards available to you.
You have an absolute right to object to the use of your personal information for direct marketing.
5.3 Consent
We may rely on your consent for:
- non-essential analytics cookies;
- advertising, remarketing and social media tracking technologies;
- marketing communications where consent is legally required;
- optional newsletter subscriptions; and
- other processing where we specifically ask for permission.
You may withdraw consent at any time. Withdrawing consent will not affect processing that took place before consent was withdrawn.
5.4 Legal obligation
We may process information where necessary to comply with:
- taxation and accounting requirements;
- company and commercial law;
- data protection requirements;
- court orders;
- regulatory obligations; and
- other legal duties.
5.5 Legal claims and vital interests
In limited circumstances, we may process information where necessary to protect someone’s vital interests or to establish, exercise or defend legal claims.
6. Business-to-business marketing
We may contact individuals at companies, limited liability partnerships, public bodies and other corporate organisations where we believe our services may be relevant to their professional responsibilities or organisation.
We may use professional contact information collected from public sources, referrals or reputable business-information providers.
Before using personal information for business-to-business marketing, we consider:
- whether the communication is relevant to the recipient’s professional role;
- whether the recipient would reasonably expect to receive it;
- the source and nature of the information;
- the likely impact on the recipient; and
- whether the recipient can easily object or opt out.
Every marketing email we send will identify Attribution Metrics and provide a way to unsubscribe or object to further marketing.
Where marketing consent is required by law, we will only send marketing where we have the necessary consent or another applicable exemption.
We maintain a suppression list containing limited information about individuals and organisations that have unsubscribed or objected. This information is retained to ensure that we do not contact them again accidentally.
You can object to marketing at any time by:
- using the unsubscribe link in an email;
- replying to the email and asking us to stop; or
- contacting us using the details in this policy.
Service messages, contractual communications, responses to enquiries and other non-marketing communications may still be sent where necessary.
7. Escaler CRM and email marketing
We use Escaler as a customer relationship management and email marketing platform.
Information stored or processed through Escaler may include:
- names and business contact details;
- company and job information;
- lead sources;
- CRM stages, tags and status information;
- records of calls, meetings and correspondence;
- email campaign information;
- delivery, opening and click information;
- unsubscribe and suppression information;
- form submissions;
- calculator completion information;
- assessment scores and reports;
- notes about business requirements; and
- details of proposals, opportunities and client relationships.
We use this information to manage enquiries, prospective clients, active clients, marketing communications and business relationships.
Escaler processes information on our behalf as a service provider. Its processing, hosting arrangements, subprocessors and security measures are governed by its contractual terms and privacy documentation.
8. Google Analytics 4
We use Google Analytics 4 to understand how visitors use our website and to measure website and marketing performance.
Depending on our configuration and your cookie choices, Google Analytics may process information such as:
- pages viewed;
- events and interactions;
- approximate location;
- device and browser information;
- referral source;
- campaign information;

Google Analytics does not provide us with your complete IP address as a standard reporting field.
Where required, Google Analytics will only operate after you have provided consent through our cookie controls.
You can withdraw or change your choice through the cookie settings available on our website.
We may use Google Analytics with other Google services, such as Google Ads, to measure campaigns, conversions and audiences.
Advertising-related functionality will only be activated where appropriate consent and platform requirements have been satisfied.
Google may process information on servers located outside the United Kingdom. Further information about Google’s processing is available through Google’s privacy and data-processing documentation.
9. Advertising and social media platforms
We may use advertising and social media platforms including:
- LinkedIn;
- Facebook;
- Instagram;
- Meta advertising services;
- Google Ads;
- YouTube; and
- other relevant marketing platforms.
These platforms may be used to:
- publish content;
- communicate with prospective clients;
- advertise our services;
- measure campaign performance;
- attribute enquiries and conversions;
- create audiences;
- exclude existing clients or contacts from campaigns;
- retarget website visitors; and
- understand how users interact with our advertisements.
Where installed, advertising technologies such as the LinkedIn Insight Tag, Meta Pixel, Google Ads tags or similar tools may collect information about your device, browser, website activity and interactions.
Advertising and remarketing technologies will only be used where permitted and, where required, after you have provided consent through our cookie controls.
Some platforms may act as independent controllers for information they collect and use for their own purposes.
Their processing is governed by their own privacy policies and account settings.
10. Cookies and similar technologies
Our website may use cookies, pixels, tags, scripts, local storage and similar technologies.
These technologies may be used for:
- essential website functionality;
- security and fraud prevention;
- remembering preferences;
- website analytics;
- campaign measurement;
- advertising;
- social media functionality;
- conversion tracking; and
- remarketing.
Strictly necessary technologies may be used without consent where they are required to provide the website or a service you have requested.
Analytics, advertising and other non-essential technologies will only be used where we have obtained the consent required by law.
Our cookie banner or preference centre allows you to accept, reject or manage non-essential technologies.
More detailed information, including the technologies used, their providers, purposes and durations, may be provided in a separate Cookie Policy.
11. Automated processing and profiling
We may use limited automated processes to:
- calculate assessment or risk scores;
- generate calculator reports;
- categorise enquiries;
- assign CRM stages or tags;
- measure engagement;
- identify potentially relevant follow-up communications;
- create advertising audiences; and
- prioritise business leads.
For example, information submitted through a marketing risk assessment may be used to calculate an indicative risk level, estimated impact or recommended next step.
These processes are intended to support our marketing, reporting and service delivery.
We do not ordinarily make decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects about individuals solely through automated processing.
Where a decision with a significant effect is made using automated processing, we will provide any additional notices and safeguards required by law.
12. Sharing personal information
We may share personal information with carefully selected third parties where necessary.
These may include:
- CRM and email marketing providers, including Escaler;
- website hosting and domain providers;
- cloud storage and productivity providers;
- analytics providers, including Google;
- advertising and social media platforms;
- website, software and technology providers;
- calendar, meeting and communication platforms;
- accounting, invoicing, banking and payment providers;

- business partners and referral partners where appropriate;
- regulators, law enforcement bodies, tax authorities or courts;
- parties involved in a business sale, restructuring, investment or acquisition; and
- other parties where you have asked us to share information or have consented to the sharing.
Where a third party acts as our processor, we require it to process personal information only on our instructions, protect the information and comply with applicable data protection requirements.
We do not sell personal information to third parties.
We do not share personal information with unrelated organisations so they can independently market their products or services to you unless you have expressly agreed.
13. Client data processed through our services
When providing analytics, tracking, reporting, advertising or consultancy services, we may process personal information on behalf of our clients.
In those circumstances:
- the client will usually be the controller;
- Attribution Metrics will usually act as a processor;
- we will process the information in accordance with the client’s documented instructions and our contract;
- the client is responsible for determining the lawful basis and providing appropriate privacy information to its users, customers and contacts; and
- requests relating to that information should ordinarily be directed to the relevant client.
Our client contracts may include additional data-processing provisions governing this activity.
We may also process limited client contact, billing, account and relationship information as an independent controller for our own administration, legal, accounting and business purposes.
14. International transfers
Some of our service providers and marketing platforms may process personal information outside the United Kingdom.
Where personal information is transferred to a country that has not been recognised as providing an adequate level of protection, we will take appropriate steps to protect it.
These may include:
- the UK International Data Transfer Agreement;
- the UK Addendum to the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses;
- another legally approved transfer mechanism;
- contractual, technical and organisational safeguards; or
- reliance on an applicable adequacy regulation.
You may contact us for further information about the safeguards used for a particular transfer.
15. How long we retain personal information
We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including legal, accounting, taxation, security and reporting requirements.
Our typical retention periods are set out below.
15.1 Enquiries and prospective clients
We will generally retain enquiry and prospect information for up to three years after the most recent meaningful interaction, unless:
- a longer period is reasonably required because the opportunity remains active;
- you ask us to delete it;
- you object to our use of the information; or
- we are legally required to retain it.
15.2 Marketing contacts
We retain active marketing information while there is a valid reason to continue the relationship or until you unsubscribe or object.
Where you unsubscribe or object, we may retain minimal information on a suppression list indefinitely, or for as long as reasonably necessary, to ensure that your preference continues to be respected.
15.3 Calculator and assessment records
We will generally retain calculator and assessment submissions for up to three years after submission or the most recent related interaction, unless the information becomes part of an active or former client relationship.
15.4 Client and contractual records
We will generally retain contracts, invoices, service records and relevant correspondence for up to seven years after the end of the client relationship, reflecting legal, contractual, taxation and accounting requirements.
15.5 Analytics information
Google Analytics event-level data will be retained according to the retention setting configured in our Google Analytics property.
Aggregated reporting information may remain available for longer.
15.6 Cookie and consent records
Cookie choices and consent records may be retained for as long as necessary to demonstrate compliance and remember your preferences.
15.7 Legal disputes
Information relevant to an actual or anticipated legal dispute may be retained until the matter is resolved and applicable limitation periods have expired.
We may securely anonymise information instead of deleting it.
Once information has been irreversibly anonymised, it is no longer personal information.
16. Information security
We use reasonable technical and organisational measures designed to protect personal information against:
- unauthorised access;
- loss or destruction;
- misuse;
- alteration;
- accidental disclosure; and
- unlawful processing.
These measures may include:
- access controls;
- password and account security;
- multi-factor authentication where available;
- secure cloud services;
- data minimisation;
- staff and contractor confidentiality obligations;
- software and system updates;
- backups;
- restricted access based on business need; and
- contractual controls with service providers.
No method of internet transmission or electronic storage is completely secure.
Although we take reasonable steps to protect personal information, we cannot guarantee absolute security.

You may ask us to restrict the use of your personal information in certain circumstances.
17.6 Right to object
You may object to processing based on legitimate interests.
