At TaxTek, we take your privacy seriously. Whether you're just browsing our website, getting in touch with us, or working with us as a client, we're committed to protecting your personal data and being transparent about how we use it.

Who We Are

We're a Glasgow-based consultancy helping UK businesses access research and development tax relief. In the course of our work, we collect and use business-related personal information, mainly from professionals like you. Depending on the situation, we may act either as a data controller (when you contact us directly, for example) or a data processor (when we're handling data on behalf of a client).

Data We Collect

Most of the data we collect is what you'd expect in a business setting:

• Your name and job title
• Work email address and phone number
• The company you work for
• Notes from conversations or emails we've exchanged

This information may come from public directories, your company website, LinkedIn, referrals, or reputable business data providers who have the right to share that information.

How We Use Your Data

We use your information for a few core reasons:

• To respond to your enquiries
• To stay in touch
• To share relevant updates or industry insights
• To manage our internal operations

We don't use your data for profiling or automated decision-making, and we never sell it to third parties.

Data Sharing

We do sometimes share personal data with trusted partners, for example, to support our IT systems or help us send emails. If that happens, we make sure those partners meet proper data protection standards. In some cases, we may need to share data for legal or regulatory reasons, but we'll always do so responsibly.

Data Security

Your data is stored securely, and only people who genuinely need access to it will have it. We keep it only for as long as needed, either to meet our business obligations or to comply with legal requirements. Once it's no longer needed, we delete it safely.

Cookies

You can manage or disable cookies through your browser settings, though that might affect how some parts of the site work. For more info, see our Cookies Policy.
