Information collected automatically
When you visit the website, our website platform and, if you allow them, analytics and advertising cookies collect technical information such as your IP address, browser and device type, the pages you visit and how you arrived at the site. See Cookies below.
3. How we use your information and our lawful basis
| Purpose | Lawful basis |
|---|---|
| Arranging and holding Strategic Growth Calls, responding to enquiries and sending your assessment results | Steps at your request before entering into a contract, and our legitimate interests in responding to you |
| Delivering services to clients and managing our relationship | Performance of a contract |
| Contacting businesses by email, telephone or LinkedIn about services relevant to their role | Legitimate interests in promoting our services to businesses. You can opt out at any time |
| Following up with people who have completed the assessment or booked a call | Legitimate interests (and, where required by PECR, your consent) |
| Keeping the website secure and working properly | Legitimate interests |
| Analytics and advertising cookies | Your consent |
| Keeping accounting and tax records | Legal obligation |
Where we rely on legitimate interests, we have considered and balanced those interests against your rights. We only contact business email addresses and roles where our services are relevant, and every marketing message tells you how to opt out.
4. Marketing and your right to object
You can ask us to stop contacting you at any time by replying to any of our emails, clicking the unsubscribe link, or emailing [email protected]. We will keep a minimal record of your details on a suppression list so that we do not contact you again.

- Google: website fonts and, if you consent, Google Analytics.
- LinkedIn: professional networking and, if you consent, the LinkedIn Insight Tag.
- Business data providers: to find and verify business contact information.
- Professional advisers such as our accountant, where needed.
We may also disclose information where required by law.
6. International transfers
Some of our service providers are based in, or store data in, the United States. Where personal information is transferred outside the UK, we make sure it is protected by an approved safeguard, such as the UK Extension to the EU-US Data Privacy Framework or the UK International Data Transfer Agreement or Addendum.

- Prospects and enquiries: up to 2 years from our last contact, unless you become a client.
- Clients: for the length of our engagement and 6 years afterwards, for legal, tax and accounting purposes.
- Suppression list: for as long as needed to respect your request not to be contacted.
8. Your rights
You have the right to access the personal information we hold about you, to have it corrected or erased, to restrict or object to how we use it (including an absolute right to object to direct marketing), to data portability, and to withdraw consent at any time where we rely on consent.
To exercise any of these rights, email [email protected]. We will respond within one month.
