4. How we collect your data

  • Automatically: as you use the Website, through cookies and similar technologies, subject to your consent.
  • From third parties: our analytics and booking providers (Google, Calendly).

5. Cookies and analytics

When you first visit the Website we ask for your consent through a cookie banner. We use:

  • Strictly necessary cookies: required for the Website to work; always on.
  • Analytics cookies: Google Analytics 4 and Google Tag Manager, to understand how visitors use the site. These run only with your consent, managed through Google Consent Mode.
  • Advertising and measurement: Google Ads, to measure the effectiveness of our advertising, with your consent.

You can accept or decline non-essential cookies via the banner and change your choice at any time by clearing cookies in your browser. Declining does not affect the core functionality of the site. For more information see Google's Privacy Policy and Calendly's Privacy Notice.

6. How and why we use your data (our legal bases)

Under UK GDPR we rely on the following legal bases:

  • To respond to your enquiry and provide our services: performance of a contract, or taking steps at your request before entering a contract, together with our legitimate interests in operating our consultancy.
  • To manage bookings and consultations: performance of a contract or pre-contract steps.
  • To operate, secure and improve the Website and understand how it is used: your consent (for analytics cookies) and our legitimate interests.
  • To send you relevant updates or marketing, where applicable: your consent, which you may withdraw at any time.
  • To comply with legal, regulatory, tax and accounting obligations: legal obligation.
  • To establish, exercise or defend legal claims: legitimate interests.

7. Who we share your data with

We do not sell your personal data. We may share it with:

  • Service providers who help us run our business and Website, including website hosting, email, our booking tool (Calendly), and analytics and advertising providers (Google).
  • Professional advisers such as accountants, insurers and legal advisers, where necessary.
  • Regulators, authorities or other third parties where required by law.

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

8. International transfers

Some providers (for example Google and Calendly) are based outside the UK, including in the United States, and we operate in both the United Kingdom and the Middle East. Where personal data is transferred outside the UK, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place, such as UK adequacy regulations or the International Data Transfer Agreement / Standard Contractual Clauses.

9. How long we keep your data

We keep personal data only as long as necessary for the purposes for which we collected it, including to meet legal, accounting or reporting requirements. Enquiry and project data is typically retained for the duration of our engagement and for a reasonable period afterwards, consistent with limitation periods and our professional obligations. Analytics data is retained in line with our analytics provider's settings.

10. Your rights

Under UK data protection law you have the right to:

  • request access to your personal data;
  • request correction of inaccurate data;
  • request erasure of your data;
  • object to or request restriction of processing;
  • request transfer of your data (data portability); and
  • withdraw consent at any time, where processing is based on consent.

To exercise any of these rights, email info@icrsconsult.com. We will respond within the timeframes required by law, and you will not usually have to pay a fee.

12. Data security

We use appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, loss or misuse. No transmission over the internet is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
