Information we collect

From client creditors: business contact details, information about the account placed, and the supporting documentation supplied.

In relation to debtor businesses and their representatives: contact details, information about the account and correspondence relating to it, and information obtained from public sources such as Companies House.

From website visitors: information submitted through enquiry and case submission forms, and limited technical information necessary to operate the site securely.

We apply data minimisation. We do not request sensitive personal information unless it is necessary, and we ask that clients do not supply it unnecessarily.

How we use information

To assess, progress and report on debt recovery instructions; to correspond with debtors and their representatives; to comply with legal and regulatory obligations; and to administer our own business.

Debt information and uploaded documentation are treated as confidential and are not used for marketing analytics or shared with advertising platforms.

Lawful bases

We rely principally on legitimate interests (the recovery of sums lawfully due, and the administration of our business), the performance of a contract, and compliance with legal obligations. Where consent is relied on, it can be withdrawn at any time.

Sharing

Information may be shared with the client creditor who placed the account, with legal representatives where a matter is escalated, with service providers who support our operations under written terms, and with authorities where required by law.
