1. Personal data we collect
We may collect the following categories of personal data.
Information you provide to us
When you contact us through our website or by email, we may collect:
your name;
email address;
telephone number;
company or organisation name;
website address;
the content of your message or enquiry; and
any other information you choose to provide to us.
If you become a client, we may also process information reasonably necessary to provide our services, manage our business relationship, communicate with you, issue invoices and maintain business records.
Website and analytics data
When you use our website, we may collect limited technical and usage information, including:
IP address;
device and browser information;
approximate geographic information;
pages viewed;
referring pages or websites;
interactions with the website; and
information about how you use our website.
We use Google Analytics 4 (“GA4”) for website analytics. Where required under applicable law, analytics technologies are used only in accordance with your cookie and consent preferences.
Please see our Cookie Policy for more information.
2. How we use your personal data and our lawful bases
Under the UK GDPR, we must have a lawful basis for processing personal data.
Responding to enquiries
We use the information you provide to respond to questions, discuss potential projects and communicate with prospective clients.
Our lawful basis is generally our legitimate interests in responding to business enquiries and developing our business.
Where your enquiry relates directly to entering into a contract with us, processing may also be necessary in order to take steps at your request before entering into a contract.
Providing our services
Where you become a client, we process personal data as necessary to deliver our services, communicate with you, manage projects and administer our business relationship.
Our lawful basis is generally performance of a contract or taking steps necessary in connection with a prospective contract.
Business administration and records
We may process and retain information relating to clients, transactions, invoices and our business activities for accounting, tax, legal and administrative purposes.
Depending on the circumstances, our lawful basis is compliance with a legal obligation or our legitimate interests in properly administering and protecting our business.
Website analytics
We use analytics to understand how visitors use our website, identify technical or usability issues and improve the website and our services.
Where consent is required for the use of analytics technologies on your device, we use those technologies in accordance with the consent choices you make through our cookie consent system.
Where personal data is subsequently processed for analytics purposes, the applicable lawful basis may include consent and, where permitted by law, our legitimate interests in understanding and improving our website.
3. Marketing
We do not currently operate an email marketing or newsletter programme through this website.
We will not add you to a marketing mailing list merely because you submit an enquiry.
If this changes in the future, we will update this Privacy Policy and implement any consent or opt-out mechanisms required by applicable law before using personal data for those purposes.
4. Sharing personal data
We do not sell personal data.
We may share personal data with service providers where this is reasonably necessary to operate our website and business.
These may include providers of:
website hosting and technical infrastructure;
email and business productivity services;
cloud storage;
website analytics;
cookie consent management; and
professional services such as accounting or legal services where required.
Our principal technology providers may include Google, which we use for services including Google Workspace, Google Drive, Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics, and CookieYes, which we use to manage cookie and tracking consent.
Service providers may process personal data on our behalf or, depending on the service and circumstances, act as independent controllers of certain information.
We may also disclose personal data where required by law, regulation, court order or a competent public authority, or where reasonably necessary to establish, exercise or defend legal claims.
5. International transfers
GetAd works with clients internationally and uses technology providers that may process data in countries outside the United Kingdom.
As a result, personal data may be transferred to or accessed from countries outside the UK.
Where UK data protection law requires safeguards for an international transfer, we take reasonable steps to ensure that an appropriate transfer mechanism is in place. Depending on the destination and circumstances, this may include:
UK adequacy regulations;
the UK International Data Transfer Agreement;
the UK Addendum to the EU Standard Contractual Clauses; or
another lawful transfer mechanism recognised under UK data protection law.
You may contact us at hello@getad.pro if you would like further information about safeguards relevant to your personal data.
6. How long we keep personal data
We keep personal data only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, including legal, accounting and tax requirements.
As a general approach:
information relating to enquiries that do not result in a business relationship is periodically reviewed and deleted when it is no longer reasonably required;
client and project information is retained for the duration of the business relationship and afterwards where reasonably necessary for business, legal or contractual purposes;
invoices and records that we are legally required to retain are kept for the applicable statutory retention period; and
analytics information is retained according to the retention settings configured within the relevant analytics service.
We may retain particular information for longer where reasonably necessary to establish, exercise or defend legal claims or where required by law.
7. Data we process on behalf of clients
GetAd provides digital advertising and marketing services.
In providing these services, we may be given access to advertising platforms, analytics systems, customer relationship management (“CRM”) systems or other systems controlled by our clients. These systems may contain personal data relating to the client’s customers, prospects or leads.
Where we process such personal data solely on the instructions of a client, the client is normally the data controller and GetAd acts as a data processor.
In these circumstances, we process personal data only as necessary to provide the agreed services and in accordance with the client’s documented instructions and applicable contractual obligations.
Questions or requests concerning personal data held by one of our clients should normally be directed to that client as the relevant controller.
This Privacy Policy primarily concerns personal data for which GetAd itself acts as controller.
8. Security
We take reasonable technical and organisational measures designed to protect personal data against unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, loss or destruction.
However, no internet transmission, electronic communication or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
9. Your data protection rights
Depending on the circumstances and the lawful basis on which we process your information, UK data protection law may give you the right to:
request access to personal data we hold about you;
request correction of inaccurate or incomplete personal data;
request deletion of your personal data;
request restriction of processing;
object to certain processing;
request transfer of certain personal data to you or another organisation; and
withdraw consent where processing is based on consent.
These rights are not absolute and may be subject to exemptions or other conditions under applicable law.
Where we rely on legitimate interests as our lawful basis, you have the right to object to the processing of your personal data in certain circumstances.
Where processing is based on your consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before consent was withdrawn.
To exercise your rights, contact:
We may need to request information reasonably necessary to verify your identity before responding to a request.
10. Complaints
If you have concerns about how we process your personal data, please contact us first at hello@getad.pro so that we have an opportunity to address them.
You also have the right to make a complaint to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO), the UK supervisory authority for data protection.
Information about making a complaint is available on the ICO website.
11. Third-party websites
Our website may contain links to websites or services operated by third parties.
We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those third parties. We recommend reviewing the privacy information provided by any third-party website or service you use.
12. Changes to this Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy where our services, technology, processing activities or applicable legal requirements change.
The latest version will be published on this page and the “Last updated” date will be revised accordingly.
