• Any information you voluntarily include in the message field
• Used solely to respond to your enquiry and arrange a diagnostic call if requested

Data collected through newsletter subscription:

• Email address only
• Used to send our monthly insights briefing
• Never shared with third parties or used for any other purpose

3. Legal basis for processing

We process your data on the following legal bases under GDPR Article 6:

• Art. 6(1)(a) — Consent: newsletter subscription and optional data fields in the contact form
• Art. 6(1)(b) — Performance of a contract or pre-contractual measures: enquiries that relate to a potential engagement
• Art. 6(1)(f) — Legitimate interest: responding to business enquiries and maintaining basic website security logs

4. Data retention

Contact form submissions are retained for 24 months from the date of receipt, or for the duration of any ongoing business relationship, whichever is longer. Newsletter subscriber data is retained until you unsubscribe. Server logs are deleted automatically after 30 days.
