You have the right to be informed about how we collect and use your personal data. We provide this information through our Privacy Policy and this GDPR compliance page, ensuring transparency about our data processing activities.

Right of Access

You have the right to request a copy of the personal data we hold about you. This is commonly known as a Subject Access Request (SAR). We will respond to your request within one month, providing the information free of charge in most circumstances.

Right to Rectification

If you believe that personal data we hold about you is inaccurate or incomplete, you have the right to request that we correct or complete this information. We aim to update records within one month of receiving your request.

Right to Erasure

Also known as the "right to be forgotten," you may request that we delete your personal data in certain circumstances, including:

  • When the data is no longer necessary for its original purpose
  • When you withdraw consent and no other legal basis applies
  • When you object to processing and there are no overriding legitimate grounds
  • When data has been unlawfully processed

Right to Restrict Processing

You may request that we restrict the processing of your personal data in specific situations, such as when you contest the accuracy of the data or when processing is unlawful but you do not want the data erased.

Right to Data Portability

Where technically feasible, you have the right to receive your personal data in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format, and to transmit this data to another controller.

Right to Object

You have the right to object to processing of your personal data in certain circumstances, including:

  • Processing based on legitimate interests
  • Processing for direct marketing purposes
  • Processing for research or statistical purposes

Rights Related to Automated Decision-Making

You have the right not to be subject to decisions based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produce legal or similarly significant effects. We do not currently engage in fully automated decision-making processes.

How to Exercise Your Rights

To exercise any of your data protection rights, please contact us using the following methods:

We will respond to your request within one month. In complex cases, we may extend this period by up to two additional months, in which case we will inform you of the extension and the reasons for it.

Identity Verification

To protect your personal data, we may need to verify your identity before processing your request. This helps ensure that personal data is not disclosed to unauthorised individuals.

Lawful Basis for Processing

We process personal data under the following lawful bases:

  • Consent: Where you have provided clear consent for us to process your data for specific purposes
  • Contractual Necessity: Where processing is necessary for the performance of our property consultancy services
  • Legitimate Interests: Where we have a legitimate business interest that does not override your fundamental rights and freedoms
  • Legal Compliance: Where processing is necessary to comply with our legal obligations

Data Protection Impact Assessments

Where appropriate, we conduct Data Protection Impact Assessments (DPIAs) to identify and minimise data protection risks, particularly when introducing new technologies or processing activities that may result in high risk to individuals.

Data Breach Procedures

In the event of a personal data breach that poses a risk to your rights and freedoms, we will notify the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) within 72 hours of becoming aware of the breach. Where the breach is likely to result in a high risk to you, we will also inform you directly.
