Who we are

This website is operated by Scorpius Group Ltd, registered in England and Wales, of 66 Hoxton St, London EC4 1AY. For the purposes of UK data protection law, Scorpius Group Ltd is the data controller for information collected through this site.

How long we keep it

We keep enquiry correspondence for as long as reasonably necessary to deal with it and for a short period afterwards in case of follow-up, then delete it. Analytics data is retained in line with the retention settings of the analytics tool we use, typically no longer than 14–26 months.

Drafted for Scorpius Group's actual footprint (a corporate site with a contact form) rather than copied from anywhere else — but this is not legal advice. Have a solicitor or DPO review this before it goes live, confirm the retention periods against what your actual tools do, and update the "last updated" date once approved.
