By submitting an enquiry form or voluntarily contacting us, you consent to our processing of the information you provide for the purposes stated in this Policy.

You may withdraw consent for future processing that relies on consent by emailing us, subject to legal retention needs and processing already completed. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal.

We retain enquiry and communication records for as long as needed to complete your request, maintain legitimate business records, resolve disputes and meet legal or accounting requirements. Technical logs are retained for a limited period consistent with security needs.

When retention is no longer necessary, we delete or irreversibly anonymise personal data where reasonably practicable.
