Our Commitment to Data Protection
Briefcount is committed to handling personal information with care and transparency. This policy explains what data we collect through this website, why we collect it, how it is used, and what rights you hold over that data.
We do not sell personal data. We do not use it for purposes beyond those described here. If you have questions about anything in this policy, our contact page is the right place to reach us.
What Personal Data We Collect
Information You Provide Directly
When you complete the contact form on this site, we receive your name, email address, and the content of your message. If you specify a firm name or service interest, that information is also retained in connection with your enquiry.
Automatically Collected Data
We may collect standard technical information when you visit, including IP address, browser type, pages visited, and time of access. This data is collected only where you have consented to analytics cookies and is used in aggregated form.
Cookie-Based Data
Depending on your cookie preferences, certain data may be collected through first- and third-party cookies. See our Cookie Policy for a full breakdown of cookie categories and purposes.
Legal Basis for Processing
We process contact form data on the basis of legitimate interest in responding to enquiries. Analytics and advertising data is processed only with your explicit consent, which you may withdraw at any time through the Cookie Policy page.
Retention Periods
Contact enquiries are retained for as long as reasonably necessary to manage the relationship arising from your message, typically no longer than 24 months from last contact. Analytics data is subject to the retention settings of the relevant platform.
How We Use Your Data
- §Responding to enquiries — We use contact form submissions solely to reply to your message and, where appropriate, continue a business conversation you initiated.
- §Site analytics — Where consented, aggregated usage data helps us understand which content is valuable and how the site can be improved. No individual profiles are built.
- §Advertising performance — Where consented, advertising data is used to measure campaign reach and relevance. We do not use this data to build personal profiles beyond what ad platforms support.
- §No data selling — We do not sell, rent, or exchange personal data with third parties for their own marketing or commercial purposes.
- §Third-party services — We may share limited data with service providers (e.g. analytics platforms, email infrastructure) strictly for the purposes described in this policy, under appropriate data processing agreements.
How We Protect Your Data
- §Data transmitted via forms on this site is carried over encrypted HTTPS connections.
- §Access to contact enquiry data is limited to personnel directly involved in handling those communications.
- §We review our data handling practices periodically and update them as our site or services evolve.
- §In the event of a data breach affecting your personal information, we will notify you and, where required by law, the relevant supervisory authority, within the timescales mandated by applicable regulations.
Your Rights
- §Right to access — You may request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
- §Right to rectification — If any information we hold is inaccurate or incomplete, you may ask us to correct it.
- §Right to erasure — You may request deletion of your personal data where there is no overriding legal reason for us to retain it.
- §Right to data portability — Where applicable, you may request your data in a structured, machine-readable format.
- §Right to object — You may object to processing based on legitimate interest at any time. We will honour that objection unless there is a compelling legal basis to continue.
