What is personal data?

“Personal data” means any information about you (or another living individual) that can identify you, directly or indirectly. This includes information such as your name, contact details, and IP address.

UK law requires organisations to process personal data in specific ways and to provide clear

information about how it is used. You also have rights regarding how your data is handled. Further details are set out in the “Your Rights” section below.

Depending on how you interact with us, we may collect:

  • Identity Data: Name, title
