What information we collect

We may collect the following information when you interact with us:

Contact details you provide via our contact form or by email — typically your name, email address, business name and any details you share about your enquiry.

Project information you share with us during a discovery call or while we are working together (for example, brand assets, existing copy, photos, business goals).

Website usage data is collected automatically by our website platform (Squarespace) and analytics tools, such as your IP address, browser type, device, pages visited and approximate location. This is used in aggregate and does not normally identify you personally.

Cookies placed by our website and third-party services (see Cookies section below).

We do not knowingly collect any sensitive personal data, and we do not collect information from anyone under the age of 18.

How we use your information

We use the information we collect to:

Respond to your enquiries and provide quotes.

Deliver the services you've engaged us for (website design, brochures, branding, content, etc.).

Send you occasional updates or marketing emails, but only if you have explicitly opted in. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link in any email we send.

Improve our website and understand how visitors use it.

Meet our legal, accounting and tax obligations.

We will never sell your personal data to third parties.

Legal basis for processing

Under UK GDPR, we rely on the following lawful bases to process your data:

Consent — for marketing emails and non-essential cookies.

Contract — to deliver services you've engaged us for.

Legitimate interests — to respond to enquiries, run our business and improve our website, where this does not override your rights.

Legal obligation — to keep records for tax and accounting purposes.

Who we share your information with

We only share your personal data with third parties where necessary to run our business. These include:

Squarespace — our website hosting and form provider.

Google Workspace — for email correspondence and, if you've opted in, marketing emails.

Xero — for invoicing and bookkeeping.

Giggio - for project management

All of our suppliers are required to keep your data secure and process it only on our instructions.

Some of these providers may store data outside the UK or EEA. Where this happens, we make sure appropriate safeguards (such as Standard Contractual Clauses) are in place.

How long we keep your data

We only keep personal data for as long as we need it:

Enquiry data — kept for up to 24 months after your last contact with us, unless you ask us to delete it sooner.

Client project data — kept for the duration of the project and for up to 7 years afterwards, to meet UK tax and accounting requirements.

Marketing list data — kept until you unsubscribe or ask us to remove you.

Cookies

Our website uses cookies — small text files stored on your device — to help the site work properly and to understand how visitors use it.

We use:

Essential cookies — required for the website to function (set by Squarespace).

Analytics cookies — to help us understand how the site is being used. These are only set if you consent via our cookie banner.

You can control or delete cookies at any time through your browser settings. Blocking essential cookies may affect how the site works.

Your rights

Under UK GDPR, you have the right to:

Ask what personal data we hold about you.

Ask us to correct any inaccurate data.

Ask us to delete your data (the "right to be forgotten").

Object to or restrict how we use your data.

Ask for a copy of your data in a portable format.

Withdraw consent at any time, where consent is the basis we rely on.

To exercise any of these rights, email us at nick@wantedmarketing.co.uk. We'll respond within one month.

Security

We take reasonable steps to keep your information secure, including using reputable third-party tools, secure passwords, and limiting access to your data on a need-to-know basis. However, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The latest version will always be available on this page, and the "Last updated" date at the top will be revised accordingly.
