We use contract¹ as our legal basis.
We use contract¹ as our legal basis.
We use contract¹ because we may need to inform you of downtime, changes in pricing, etc., that may mean we can't provide our services anymore.
We use contract¹ and legitimate interests² as our legal basis.
We use contract¹ because there may be issues that significantly affects your service and thus affects us being able to carry out our contract with you.

We use legitimate interests² as our legal basis.

¹ "Contract" means we have to collect/use this data to enter into, or carry out, a contract with you.
All of your data protection rights may apply, except the right to object.
² "Legitimate interests" means we're collecting/using your data because it benefits you, our organisation, or someone else, without causing an undue risk of harm to anyone.

All of our personal data comes directly from you. We don't collect anything from third parties.
For each purpose, we've provided information on how long we keep data for.
We may have to retain data longer than this if legally required (court orders, investigations etc). We'll notify you regarding this wherever possible.
Kept as long as you are a customer. Deleted two months after your last service ends. We'll send you reminders 30 days, 14 days, and 3 days before deletion.
Please note: We are legally required to keep transaction information for up to 6 years.
Kept as long as your query is open. Deleted one month after being resolved, to allow for any follow-up queries.
Please note: Any emails related to purchasing our services will be kept if you made a transaction in the past 120 days, so we can prove to your bank you authorised the transactions.
Kept for up to 10 years, to identify and prevent you from buying our services again.
We use Stripe as a data processor, which handles payment processing.
Other than this, we don't share your personal data with third parties.
At most, we share anonymised data which cannot be used to identify you in any way. We take every step possible to anonymise & generalise your data before sharing it with anyone. Our Advisory Board meets twice weekly to review our data protection practices.
Please note: We may have to share/delete any personal data we hold on you upon a valid legal request (like a court order, DMCA takedown etc).
If we encounter a personal data breach (when someone breaches our security and accesses your personal data), we'll inform you immediately through any method available.
Stripe, our data processor, may share personal data outside of the UK (to the USA). This transfer complies with UK data protection law via the International Data Transfer Addendum.
We are in a Data Processing Agreement with Stripe. For more information, both of these are available on Stripe's website:
