Our website and the services used to operate it may also collect limited technical information, such as your IP address, browser type and device information, where necessary for the operation and security of the website.

How We Use Your Information

We may use your personal information to respond to enquiries, understand your project and requirements, prepare proposals and quotations, provide and manage our services, coordinate with suppliers and other professionals, manage procurement where relevant, maintain business and project records, and comply with legal or regulatory requirements.

Our Lawful Basis for Processing

We process personal information where necessary to respond to your enquiry or take steps at your request before entering into a contract, where necessary to perform our contract with you as a client, where necessary for our legitimate business interests, or where necessary to comply with a legal obligation.

How We Share Your Information

We do not sell or rent your personal information. We may share it with trusted third parties reasonably necessary to operate our business or provide our services, including hosting and IT providers, suppliers and contractors, architects and other professionals involved in a project, delivery providers, and professional advisers where required.

We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal information against loss, misuse, unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration or destruction. No method of electronic transmission or storage can be guaranteed completely secure.

How Long We Keep Your Information

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose it was collected. Enquiry information is retained only as long as needed to respond to and follow up. Client and project information may be retained longer where necessary for project records or legal, accounting or reporting requirements.
