-
Information collected automatically — such as your IP address, browser type, device information, referring URL, pages viewed, and time spent on the site, gathered through cookies and similar technologies.

4. Cookies and analytics
Our website uses cookies and similar technologies. Strictly necessary cookies keep the site working and do not require consent. Analytics and marketing cookies — such as those set by Google Analytics, Meta, LinkedIn, or other advertising platforms we may use — only run after you accept them through our cookie banner.
These tools help us measure traffic, understand which content is useful, and target relevant marketing. You can change your preferences at any time using the cookie settings link in the website footer, or by clearing cookies in your browser.
5. Marketing communications
If you have given consent, or if you are an existing business contact, we may send you occasional emails about our consulting services, ERP insights, events, and resources. Every marketing email contains an unsubscribe link, and you can opt out at any time by clicking it or emailing us.
6. Sharing your information
We do not sell your personal information. We share it only with:
-
Service providers — such as our website host, email platform, CRM, and analytics providers, who process data on our instructions under written contracts.
-
Professional advisers — such as accountants and lawyers, where necessary.
-
Authorities — where we are legally required to disclose information.
Some providers may process data outside the UK. Where they do, we rely on appropriate safeguards such as UK adequacy regulations or the International Data Transfer Agreement / Addendum.
7. How long we keep it
We keep personal information only for as long as we need it for the purpose it was collected, or to meet legal obligations. Enquiry data is typically kept for up to two years after our last contact. Marketing data is kept until you unsubscribe. Records relating to client engagements are retained for up to seven years to meet UK accounting and tax requirements.
8. Your rights
Under UK GDPR you have the right to:
-
Access the personal data we hold about you.
-
Ask us to correct inaccurate data.
-
Ask us to delete your data, where applicable.
-
Restrict or object to our processing.
-
Receive a copy of your data in a portable format.
-
Withdraw consent at any time, where processing is based on consent.
To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details in section 1. You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) at ico.org.uk if you believe we have not handled your information correctly — though we would appreciate the chance to put things right first.
9. Security
We use appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect personal information against loss, misuse, and unauthorised access. No system is completely secure, but we work to maintain practices that are proportionate to the data we hold.
