Privacy Policy
Introduction
We take the privacy of our clients, partners and the people that they work with seriously. This privacy notice summarises what information we might collect about you, how we use this and when we might use your details to contact you. It also details your options on the personal information you provide us and what personal information we may share with others whom we work with.
Please read this notice carefully before you get in touch with us or use any of our services, and please do contact us if you have any questions or concerns regarding our privacy practices.
What’s not covered in this policy
In the course of our work, we may use third-party services including survey software, third-party platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Behance, LinkedIn and YouTube or represent third-party organisations such as clients.
Please note that all third-party organisations have their own privacy policies and notices, and where your personal information is gathered by them, this will adhere to their policies, not ours.

We also collect personal information indirectly, from the following sources in the following scenarios: When Only or one of our clients have been mentioned in a public-facing forum by yourself e.g. if you’ve mentioned us in a Twitter post or post from a LinkedIn account, we might collect your Twitter handle or name/contact details on LinkedIn.
We use the information that you have given us to enable us to create powerful brand ideas for ourselves and the clients we work with, to deliver our services and to keep you up to date with them, as well as deal with any requests, queries or complaints that might be sent to us.
We won’t ever sell your personal information. Where relevant, we may share this information when we use third-party organisations to power our services, when you make something public, or when we work with clients and partners collaboratively, but we ensure that we’re careful about what we share and what our clients do with it.

— We have a legal obligation.
— We have a legitimate interest.
How we store your personal information
We only retain your personal details for as long as we are performing the activities detailed above, or have a legitimate reason to retain it. We don’t hold your information for any longer than we have to, and will always consider its sensitivity and the risks to you if someone uses or shares this information without permission.
All personal information will be deleted once there is no requirement for us to retain it.
