- The legitimate interest we are pursuing is our commercial interest in understanding how visitors use our website so that we can improve the content and user experience. This is also in the legitimate interest of our visitors, as it helps us provide a more relevant and engaging service. Using Google Analytics is necessary to achieve this interest, as it is the most effective way to collect aggregated data on website usage, such as visitor numbers, popular pages, and typical user journeys. This information is essential for making informed decisions about our content and site structure. We use this data in a targeted and proportionate way. We have carefully balanced our interests against the privacy rights of our visitors. The data collected through Google Analytics is anonymised before being stored and is used only to provide aggregated, statistical reports. It does not identify any individual personally, and visitors are informed about this processing through our privacy notice. We believe this use of data has a minimal impact on their privacy and is something they would reasonably expect from a website that is looking to improve its services.
For more information on our use of legitimate interests as a lawful basis you can contact us using the contact details set out above.
Our lawful bases for collecting or using personal information for legal requirements are:

- Our legitimate interest in this context is to operate our website and business effectively and in accordance with professional standards. This includes being able to acknowledge and respond to any queries, complaints, or claims that users might raise in a timely and appropriate manner. Processing the personal information provided by a user (such as their name and email address) is necessary for us to identify the individual, understand the nature of their query or complaint, investigate the matter, and communicate the outcome back to them. We have balanced this interest against the rights and freedoms of the individuals involved. The data we would process for this purpose is limited to what is necessary to handle the communication. We would only use the data for the specific purpose of managing and resolving the query, complaint, or claim, and this is something a user would reasonably expect when they contact a website or business about an issue.
