Where processing is necessary to perform a contract with you or to take pre-contractual steps at your request, such as preparing quotations or delivering ecological consultancy services.

Legal Obligation

Where processing is necessary to comply with our legal obligations, including professional regulatory requirements, tax and accounting obligations, and health and safety legislation.

Where processing is necessary for our legitimate business interests, provided these do not override your fundamental rights. Our legitimate interests include:

4. Your Rights Under GDPR

Under UK GDPR, you have the following rights regarding your personal data:

Right to be Informed

You have the right to know how your personal data is being used. This is provided through this page and our Privacy Policy.

Right of Access

You can request a copy of the personal data we hold about you. We will respond to your request within one month and provide the information free of charge.

Right to Rectification

You can request that we correct any inaccurate personal data or complete any incomplete data we hold about you.

Right to Erasure

You can request that we delete your personal data in certain circumstances, including where it is no longer necessary for the purpose it was collected, where you withdraw consent, or where processing is unlawful.

Right to Restrict Processing

You can request that we limit how we use your personal data in certain circumstances, such as while we verify accuracy following a correction request.

Right to Data Portability

Where processing is based on consent or contract, you can request that we provide your personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format.

Right to Object

You can object to processing based on legitimate interests or for direct marketing purposes. We will stop processing unless we have compelling legitimate grounds.

Rights Related to Automated Decision-Making

7. Data Protection Impact Assessments

We conduct Data Protection Impact Assessments where our processing is likely to result in high risk to individuals, particularly when using new technologies or processing special categories of data.
