Information I collect

Information you provide: If you contact me through this website, by email, LinkedIn or another method, I may collect information such as your name, job title, organisation, email address, telephone number and any other information you choose to provide.

Client information: If we work together, I may collect and retain information necessary to manage our working relationship and provide the agreed services.

Website information: When you visit this website, limited technical information may be collected, such as your IP address, browser or device information and information about how the website is used. This may involve cookies or similar technologies.

How I use your information

I may use your personal information to:

• respond to enquiries and communicate with you;
• provide and manage services you have asked me to deliver;
• maintain appropriate business and client records;
• operate, understand and improve this website and my services;
• meet legal, regulatory, accounting or security requirements; and
• send marketing communications where you have consented to receive them or where I otherwise have a lawful basis to do so. You can opt out of marketing communications at any time.

Legal basis for processing

I process personal information where there is an appropriate legal basis under UK data protection law. This may include:

Contract: where processing is necessary to provide services you have asked me to deliver or to take steps before entering into a contract.

Consent: where you have given permission for a particular use of your information.

Legitimate interests: where processing is necessary for the legitimate operation and development of SCOUT & JEM, provided those interests do not override your rights and interests.

Legal obligation: where I am required to process or retain information by law.

How I share information

I do not sell or trade your personal information.

I may use trusted third-party service providers to support the operation of SCOUT & JEM, for example website hosting, email, business administration, data storage or other technology services. They will only have access to information where necessary to provide those services.

I may also disclose information where required by law or where necessary to establish, exercise or defend legal rights.

Data security

I take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal information against loss, misuse, unauthorised access, alteration or disclosure.

Data retention

I retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including meeting legal, accounting and reporting requirements. When information is no longer required, it will be securely deleted or anonymised where appropriate.

International data transfers

Some of the technology and service providers used by SCOUT & JEM may process information outside the UK.

Where personal data is transferred internationally, I will take appropriate steps to ensure it receives an adequate level of protection in accordance with UK data protection law.

Under UK data protection law, you may have rights in relation to your personal information, including the right to:

• request access to the personal information I hold about you;
• request correction of inaccurate or incomplete information;
• request deletion of your information in certain circumstances;
• request restriction of processing;
• object to certain types of processing;
• withdraw consent where processing relies on consent; and
