Information collected

When you contact Miranda, she may receive your name, email address, telephone number, organisation, the contents of your message and any other information you choose to provide. If you become a client, she may also hold information needed to arrange and deliver services, manage the working relationship and maintain appropriate business records.

The enquiry form on this website opens your own email application. The form itself is not submitted to or stored by the website.

How and why information is used

Personal information may be used to:

• respond to enquiries and discuss potential services;
• take steps requested before entering into an agreement;
• provide agreed services and communicate with clients;
• manage professional, administrative and financial records; and
• protect the security and proper operation of the website and business.

The lawful bases relied upon are taking steps before entering into or performing a contract, complying with legal obligations, and legitimate interests in operating and protecting a professional service. Enquiry details are not used for unrelated marketing without an appropriate lawful basis.

Sharing and international processing

Information is shared only where reasonably necessary, including with trusted providers supporting email, website hosting, security, IT, professional administration or legal and accounting obligations. It may also be disclosed where required by law. Personal information is not sold.

Some service providers may process information outside the UK. Where this happens, appropriate safeguards required by UK data protection law are used.

How long information is kept

Enquiries that do not lead to an engagement are normally retained for no longer than 24 months after the last meaningful contact. Client, contractual and financial records may be kept for up to six years after the relationship ends, or longer where required by law or necessary to establish, exercise or defend legal claims. Information is deleted or securely disposed of when it is no longer needed.

Cookies and website security

This website does not currently use advertising or analytics cookies. Its hosting and security provider, Cloudflare, may set a short-lived essential cookie called __cf_bm to distinguish legitimate visitors from automated traffic and help protect the website. Because this cookie is strictly necessary for security, consent is not required.

If non-essential analytics or marketing technologies are introduced in future, this notice and the website's consent controls will be updated before they are used.

Your rights

Depending on the circumstances, you may have rights to access, correct or erase your personal information; restrict or object to its use; and receive certain information in a portable format. You may also withdraw consent at any time where consent is the lawful basis.

To ask a question or exercise a privacy right, email miranda@mirandasofiaeconomides.co.uk. Miranda may need to confirm your identity before completing a request.

If you remain concerned, you may complain to the Information Commissioner's Office, the UK data protection regulator.

Changes to this notice

This notice will be reviewed when the website, services or use of personal information changes. The latest version will always be published on this page.
