What information do we collect about you?

We collect information directly from you when you engage us for financial auditing services. This information will relate to your name, e-mail address, telephone/mobile number, business or personal address, as is necessary for the provision of our services.

We may also collect information when you voluntarily complete client surveys or provide feedback to us.

Why do we need to collect and use your personal data?

The primary legal basis that we intend to use for the processing of your data is for the performance of our contract with you. The information that we collect from you is essential for us to be able to carry out the services that you require from us effectively.

Where special category data is required, we will obtain your explicit consent to collect and process this information.

Should we utilise any information which you have given us in order to market further services, our legal basis for this will either be consent or legitimate interest depending on our previous dealings with you.

If you are applying for a role with us, our legal basis for contacting you will be consent.

How will we use the information about you?

We collect information about you to provide you with the services for which you engage us.  We may on occasion send you marketing or information messages if we feel that the message is relevant or if you have requested the information.

Who might we share your information with?

To deliver our services to you effectively, we may send your details to third parties such as those that we engage for outsourcing work, professional compliance, accountancy or legal services as well as product and platform providers that we use to provide a service for you.

Where third parties are involved in processing your data, we shall have a contract in place with them to ensure that the nature and purpose of the processing are clear, that they are subject to a duty of confidence in processing your data and that they will only act in accordance with our written instructions.

Where it is necessary for your personal data to be forwarded to a third party, we will use appropriate security measures to protect your personal data in transit, e.g. password protection.

To fulfil our obligations in respect of prevention of money-laundering and other financial crime we may send your details to third party agencies for identity verification purposes.

How long do we keep hold of your information?

In principle, your personal data should not be held for longer than is required under the terms of our contract for services with you. Should we provide services to you, we will not hold any necessary documents longer than is required by law.
