2. Legal Basis for Processing

Where we process personal data, we do so on one of the following legal bases under UK GDPR:

• — Contract / pre-contractual steps: When you contact us via the form, we process your contact details in order to respond to your enquiry, which may constitute a pre-contractual step if your message concerns a potential commercial or editorial engagement.

We do not sell, rent, or trade personal data. We share data only in the limited circumstances below:

Hosting and infrastructure: The website is hosted on servers operated by a third-party hosting provider. Server access logs containing IP addresses and request data are retained by that provider subject to their own data retention policies.

We retain personal data only for as long as is necessary for the purpose for which it was collected:
