Data sharing

Smart Connects does not sell personal information to third parties. Information may only be shared with service providers necessary to deliver our services, or where required by law.

Data security

We take reasonable measures to protect personal information against unauthorised access, disclosure or misuse.

International projects and service providers

We accept enquiries from UK, US and EU businesses. Hosting, email, Google reCAPTCHA and, with consent, Google Analytics may involve providers processing information in other countries. The location and safeguards for a commissioned app or AI system are agreed separately before live personal data is processed.

Do not put passwords, API keys or sensitive customer records into the contact form. Any processing agreement, access permissions, retention requirements or international transfer safeguards needed for a project must be agreed during scoping. This page is not a blanket compliance certification for every service or country.

Retention

Enquiry information is used to respond to your request and manage the resulting business relationship. Retention needs depend on that purpose and applicable obligations. Contact us to ask what information is held or request deletion where available.

Cookies

We use essential cookies that are necessary for this website to function correctly. These do not require your consent.

With your consent, we also use Google Analytics cookies to help us understand how visitors use our website, so we can improve it. These are only set if you select "Accept all" in our cookie banner. You can choose "Necessary only" to decline them, and you can change your mind at any time by clearing your browser's site data, including local storage and cookies, which will show the banner again. Google Analytics and reCAPTCHA may process data outside your country; see Google's privacy policy for details.

Your rights

Depending on the law that applies, you may have rights to access, correct, erase, restrict or object to processing of your information. Contact cs@smartconnects.co.uk with your request. You may also contact the relevant data protection authority where applicable.
