4. Third parties we share data with
We use a small number of carefully selected third-party tools and platforms to operate this website. These processors handle data only on our instructions and are bound by data processing agreements. We do not sell your personal data to any third party.
- HubSpot: Used for email marketing and subscriber relationship management. HubSpot stores contact details (name, email, and related information) on our behalf. Privacy policy: https://legal.hubspot.com/privacy-policy
- Webflow: This website is hosted on Webflow. Webflow processes connection and form submission data as part of providing its hosting service. Privacy policy: https://webflow.com/legal/privacy

5. Cookies
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. Although we do not set our own first-party cookies for tracking purposes, some of the third-party services we use (notably Google Analytics and Webflow) do set cookies as part of their normal operation.
Google Analytics cookies
Google Analytics sets cookies (including _ga and _gid) to distinguish users and help us understand how visitors use our site. The data collected is anonymised and aggregated. You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on, available at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
Webflow cookies
Webflow may set session cookies necessary for the website to function correctly. These do not track you across other websites and are deleted when you close your browser.
Most browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. Restricting cookies may affect your experience of this website.
6. International data transfers
We aim to keep your personal data within the UK and the European Economic Area (EEA). Where third-party service providers are based outside this area (for example, some HubSpot and Google infrastructure may operate in the United States), such transfers are governed by appropriate safeguards, including standard contractual clauses approved under UK GDPR, to ensure your data receives an equivalent level of protection.
7. How long we keep your data
We retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes described in this policy. In practice:
- If you have an active subscription, we will retain your account data for the duration of that subscription.
- If you unsubscribe or close your account, we will retain minimal records only as required by law (for example, for financial or tax purposes), before securely deleting them.
- You may request deletion of your personal data at any time (see Section 9). We will action all valid requests promptly and without undue delay.
