What this notice covers
This notice explains how we handle the details you give us through this website and when you email us about a possible sale or licence of business records. Records you go on to sell or license are covered by the agreement you sign, not by this notice.
What we collect
- The details you type into our enquiry form: your name, email address, company, your situation, sector, the years and kinds of records you hold, any systems you tick and anything you add in the notes box.
- Anything you send us by email.
Please describe your records rather than sending them. We don’t need files, logins or passwords at the enquiry stage, and we ask you not to send personal records.
Why we use it
To reply to your enquiry, discuss whether your records could be sold or licensed, and prepare any agreement you ask for. Our lawful basis is our legitimate interest in responding to enquiries about our services, and, where you ask us to, taking steps towards an agreement with you.
Who sees it
Your enquiry is read by the McKays team. We use a form service (Formspree) and an email provider to receive and store messages. They handle the details on our behalf under their data processing terms. We don’t sell your enquiry details, and we don’t share them with AI labs or other buyers unless you agree to it as part of a deal.
Where it’s stored
Some of our service providers may store data outside the UK. Where that happens, we rely on the safeguards in their data processing terms.
How long we keep it
We keep enquiry details for up to two years after our last contact with you. If a deal goes ahead, we keep what’s needed for as long as the agreement and the law require.
Your rights
You can ask us for a copy of the details we hold about you, ask us to correct or delete them, ask us to stop or limit how we use them, or object to us using them. Email [email protected] and we’ll reply within one month.
If you’re unhappy with how we’ve handled your details, you can complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office at ico.org.uk or on 0303 123 1113. We’d appreciate the chance to put things right first.
Cookies
Optional analytics and advertising tags (Google Analytics, Google Ads, Meta and LinkedIn) load only if you accept them in the cookie banner, and you can change your choice at any time using Cookie settings. If you accept advertising, a completed enquiry is counted as a conversion; the details you type into the form are not sent to these services. Fonts and files are served from our own website.
Changes
If we change this notice, we’ll update the date at the top of this page.
