Privacy Policy
⚠️ This is a placeholder template privacy policy, not a finished legal document — it must be reviewed by a qualified professional and completed with Applications Consultancy's actual data practices before this site goes live. Applications Consultancy understands the importance of respecting the privacy and security of our clients' and website visitors' information. This policy explains how we treat the personal data of anyone who accesses or uses this website or our services. If you object to any of the terms below, please do not use this site. [Add last-updated date.]
What personal data we collect and process
[Add the specific categories of personal data you collect here — e.g. name, contact details, and payment information collected when someone books a consultation, and access date, IP address, and device type collected via cookies when someone visits the website.]
Why we collect and process this personal data
[Add the specific purposes for which you use each category of personal data — e.g. to process bookings and payments, to comply with legal obligations, and to measure how the website is used.]
When we delete personal data
We keep personal data only for as long as necessary for the purposes above, or as required by law or for the regular exercise of our rights. We may keep data in anonymised form, no longer linked to you, for longer periods.
Who else has access to personal data, and why
[Add the third parties you share personal data with, if any — e.g. your website hosting provider, email or marketing tools, and payment processor — and why.] We also share data with judicial, police, or governmental authorities where a court order, law, or regulation requires it. Where your data is transferred outside [your country], we take the measures required by applicable law to keep it protected.
Your rights over your personal data
[Add the data protection law that applies to this business — e.g. the UK GDPR — and list the rights it grants visitors, such as the right to access, correct, delete, or port their data, and to object to or withdraw consent for processing.] You can exercise any of these rights by contacting us — we may ask you to confirm your identity before responding.
How we store and protect your personal data
We store your personal data securely, using what we consider the best available technical and administrative practices to protect it against unauthorised access, destruction, loss, or alteration. No platform is completely secure — if you suspect your personal data has been accessed without authorisation, please contact us immediately.
Your consent
[Add which of your data processing activities rely on consent versus another legal basis, and how you will ask for renewed consent if that changes.]
Third-party websites
As a resource for our users, we may link to other websites. We are not responsible for those sites' content or how they collect, process, or transfer your personal information — please check their own privacy policies before sharing your data with them.
Changes to this policy
We may change this policy at our discretion, at any time. Material changes take effect once they are posted on our website, emailed to you, or otherwise communicated to you — please check the current version each time you visit the site. Where a change affects data processing that relies on your consent, we will ask you to consent again before you can continue using the platform.
How to make a complaint
[Add how visitors can complain, and the name of your data protection regulator, if applicable — e.g. the ICO in the UK.]
