Privacy Policy
Last updated: 2026
Office Tether is a small UK consultancy providing advisory support around safer remote access for small businesses. This page explains what personal data we collect, how we use it, and your rights.
What information we collect
We only collect information needed to respond to enquiries and provide the free check, such as:
- Name and business contact details (email and any phone number you provide)
- Business information you share in emails
- High-level notes from advisory discussions
How we use your information
- To respond to your enquiry
- To arrange and provide the free Remote Access & Security Check
- To share advisory findings and suggested next steps
- To keep basic records of communications
Lawful basis
We process personal data under UK GDPR on the basis of legitimate interests (running and improving our consultancy service) and, where relevant, consent (for example, where you choose to provide specific details).
How long we keep data
We keep enquiry and advisory records only as long as reasonably necessary for follow-up, record-keeping, and legal/accounting obligations.
Sharing your information
We do not sell your personal data. Information is only shared where necessary to operate the service (for example, standard email or hosting providers), and only on a need-to-know basis.
Security
We use reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect information. No internet-based service can be guaranteed fully secure, but we aim to reduce risk through practical controls.
Your rights
Under UK data protection law, you may have rights to:
- Request access to personal data we hold about you
- Request correction of inaccurate information
- Request deletion where appropriate
- Object to or restrict certain processing
To exercise any of these rights, email hello@officetether.co.uk.
