Occasionally, we might receive your contact information from one of our partners. If we do, we protect it in exactly the same way as if you give it to us directly.

What information we hold

• When you contact us by email or through our website, we collect your name, email address, phone number, website address, and the company you work for, if you’ve given us that.
• If you sign up for a newsletter, we only collect your email address.
• If you do business with us, we also collect your business name and bank details and keep records of the invoices we send you and the payments you make.
• All payments are processed by Worldpay and we never process card payments directly but will always use above companies who are GDPR and PCI DSS compliant and value security above all else.

We occasionally use your contact information to send you details of our products and services. When we do, you have the option to unsubscribe from these communications and we won’t send them to you again.
