See Section 12 for more details.

5. How we use your personal data

We use personal data for the following purposes:

  • To respond to enquiries and provide requested information;

  • To communicate with you about meetings, follow‑ups, and requested materials;
  • To operate and secure our website (fraud prevention, abuse monitoring, debugging);
  • To improve our website and user experience (analytics only if enabled and permitted);
  • To comply with legal obligations and protect our rights.

6. Legal bases for processing

We rely on one or more of the following legal bases, depending on the context:

  • Legitimate interests: e.g., responding to B2B enquiries, operating and securing our website, improving our services (balanced against your rights);
  • Contract / pre‑contract steps: e.g., processing a pilot application and preparing a proposal;
  • Consent: e.g., optional analytics cookies (where required), or marketing communications where consent is used;
  • Legal obligation: e.g., compliance with applicable laws.

7. Sharing your personal data

We may share personal data with:

  • Service providers (processors) who help us operate the website and communications (e.g., hosting, form processing, email delivery, CRM tools), strictly on our instructions;
  • Professional advisers (lawyers, accountants) where necessary;
  • Authorities where required by law, or to protect rights, safety, and security.

We do not sell your personal data.

8. International transfers

Your data may be processed in the United Kingdom and/or other locations where our service providers operate.
Where personal data is transferred outside the UK/EEA, we use appropriate safeguards required by law (such as contractual protections).

9. Data retention

We keep personal data only for as long as necessary for the purposes described in this Policy, including:

  • Pilot applications and enquiries: typically retained for a reasonable period to manage follow‑ups and business records;
  • Security logs: retained for a limited period for security and troubleshooting;
  • Marketing preferences: until you opt out or withdraw consent (as applicable).

Exact retention periods may depend on the context and legal requirements.

10. Security

We implement technical and organisational measures designed to protect personal data, such as access controls and secure handling practices.
However, no system is 100% secure and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

11. Your rights

Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have the right to:

  • Request access to your personal data;
  • Request correction of inaccurate data;
  • Request deletion of your data (where applicable);
  • Request restriction of processing;
  • Object to processing based on legitimate interests;
  • Request data portability (where applicable);
  • Withdraw consent at any time (where we rely on consent);
