The personal data we collect
Depending on how you interact with us, we may collect and process the following categories of personal data:
- Identity and contact details — such as your name, job title, company name, email address and telephone number;
- Enquiry and correspondence data — the contents of messages you send us via our website contact form, email or phone;
- Project and service data — information you provide in the course of us delivering services to you or your organisation;
- Technical and usage data — information collected automatically when you visit our website, such as your IP address, browser type and how you use the site (see "Cookies" below).
We do not process special category (sensitive) personal data as a routine part of our service, and we do not take any payments through this website.
How we obtain your data and why we use it
Most of the personal data we hold is provided to us directly by you — for example, when you complete a contact form, send us an email, telephone us, or enter into a contract for our services. We may also collect technical data automatically through your use of our website.
Purposes of processing
- To respond to your enquiries and provide the information or services you request;
- To provide, manage and improve our consulting and software services;
- To administer our relationship with you and your organisation, including contract and account management;
- To send service-related communications and, where you have agreed, relevant marketing;
- To operate, secure and improve our website;
- To comply with our legal and regulatory obligations.
Lawful bases for processing
Under the Gibraltar GDPR, we rely on the following lawful bases for processing your personal data:
- Contract — where processing is necessary to enter into or perform a contract with you;
- Legitimate interests — where processing is necessary for our legitimate business interests (such as responding to enquiries, providing and improving our services, and securing our website), provided these are not overridden by your rights and interests;
- Consent — where you have given clear consent, for example to receive marketing communications or to the use of non-essential cookies. You may withdraw consent at any time;
- Legal obligation — where processing is necessary to comply with the law.
Who we share your data with
We do not sell your personal data. We may share it, where necessary and lawful, with:
- Trusted service providers and sub-processors who support our operations (for example, hosting, email, CRM and analytics providers), under appropriate contractual safeguards;
- Professional advisers such as accountants, auditors and lawyers;
- Regulators, law enforcement or other authorities where required by law, including the Gibraltar Regulatory Authority.
International transfers
Some of our service providers may process data outside Gibraltar. Personal data flows freely between Gibraltar and the United Kingdom, as the two regimes are aligned. Where data is transferred to other countries, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place in accordance with Chapter V of the Gibraltar GDPR (for example, transfers to jurisdictions covered by an adequacy decision, or under approved contractual clauses).
How long we keep your data
We retain personal data only for as long as is necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, including to satisfy any legal, accounting or reporting requirements. Enquiry data that does not lead to a contract is held only for as long as needed to deal with the enquiry. When data is no longer required, we securely delete or anonymise it.
How we keep your data secure
We have implemented appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised or unlawful processing and against accidental loss, destruction or damage. Access to personal data is limited to those who need it to carry out their roles.
Cookies
Our website may use cookies and similar technologies to help it function and to understand how it is used. Essential cookies are necessary for the site to work. Non-essential cookies (for example, analytics) are only set where you have consented. You can manage cookies through your browser settings.
