• Contact data: your email address and telephone number
• Location data: your town, area, or postcode
• Service data: the type of accountancy service you are enquiring about
• Technical data: your IP address, browser and device type, and the pages you visit (collected via analytics cookies only with your consent, see Section 8)

We do not collect sensitive financial data such as your National Insurance number, UTR, income figures, or bank details through our website forms.

3. How we use your data

• To prepare your quote (Contract / Legitimate Interests): we use your details to prepare and send the fixed written quote you requested.

4. Who we share your data with

• The practice delivering your work: your enquiry is handled by Tidy Money Ltd, the ACCA-regulated practice that provides the accountancy services on this site, to prepare your quote and, if you proceed, deliver the work.
• Service providers: we use Google (Google Workspace) to store and manage enquiry submissions as a data processor on our behalf.
• Analytics providers: where you consent, we use Google Analytics 4 to understand website traffic. You can also opt out via the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

6. Your rights under UK GDPR

You have the right to access, rectify, erase, restrict, or port your data, and to object to processing based on legitimate interests, including direct marketing. We do not carry out solely automated decision-making.

7. Data security

We use appropriate technical and organisational measures, including encrypted transmission (HTTPS) and restricted access to enquiry data. No internet transmission is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security of data sent to our website.

8. Cookies

Our website uses two categories of cookies:

• Strictly necessary: a single cookie that remembers your consent choice. This cannot be disabled.
• Analytics (consent-based): Google Analytics cookies (_ga, _gid, _gat) load only after you click “Accept” on our cookie banner. If you reject or ignore the banner, no analytics cookies are set.

You can also control and delete cookies via your browser settings. Declining analytics cookies does not affect your ability to use the site.

9. International data transfers

Some providers (including Google) may process data outside the UK. Where this occurs we rely on appropriate safeguards, including UK ICO-approved Standard Contractual Clauses, so your data receives equivalent protection.

10. Children’s privacy

Our service is intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect data from anyone under 18. If you believe a minor has submitted data, contact us and we will delete it.

11. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date above always reflects the current version.
