Our lawful bases
Depending on the circumstances, we process personal data because it is necessary to take steps towards or perform a contract, to comply with a legal obligation, or for our legitimate interests in operating, protecting and developing Around People and responding to business and employment enquiries. Where consent is required, you may withdraw it at any time.

We may use trusted service providers for website hosting, email, document storage, communications and appointment scheduling, including WordPress, Kinsta, Google Workspace and Calendly. We disclose only the information reasonably necessary for them to provide their services. We may also disclose information where required by law or in connection with professional advice.

How long we keep information
We retain personal data only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including responding to enquiries, considering candidates for current or future opportunities, maintaining business records and meeting legal obligations. Retention depends on the nature of the relationship and the information involved.
