This Privacy Notice explains how @pastellco (“we”, “us”) processes personal data when you visit pastell.co, contact us, request services, or submit forms. It is prepared in line with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and other applicable data-protection laws. We may update this notice when our practices or legal requirements change; the version published on this page is the current one.
1. Purposes and legal bases for processing
We process personal data only where a legal basis applies under GDPR Article 6 (and Article 9 where special categories apply). Typical categories include identity and contact details, customer enquiry data, billing information, and information you submit through website forms.
Main purposes:
- Responding to enquiries, quotes, and service requests (contract performance or pre-contract steps)
- Delivering websites, SEO, GEO, and digital marketing services (contract performance)
- Complying with legal, tax, and accounting obligations (legal obligation)
- Securing our website, offices, and systems (legitimate interests)
- Improving our services and website experience (legitimate interests, where balanced against your rights)
- Sending marketing communications only where you have given consent or another valid basis applies
2. Who we share data with
We do not sell your personal data. We may share data with:
- Hosting, email, analytics, and payment providers acting as processors under data-processing agreements
- Professional advisers (legal, accounting) where necessary
- Public authorities when required by law
Where data is transferred outside the UK/EEA, we use appropriate safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses or adequacy decisions, as required by GDPR Chapter V.
3. How we collect data
Data may be collected directly from you (forms, email, phone, meetings), automatically through cookies and similar technologies (see our Cookie Policy), or from publicly available business sources where relevant to B2B outreach.
Retention periods depend on the purpose: enquiry data is kept as long as needed to handle your request and any follow-up; contract and invoice data is retained as required by commercial and tax law; marketing consent records are kept to demonstrate compliance.
4. Your rights
Under GDPR you may have the right to access, rectify, erase, restrict processing, object (including to direct marketing), and data portability, where applicable. You may withdraw consent at any time without affecting prior lawful processing. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority in your country of residence or place of work.
To exercise your rights, contact us using the details below. We will respond within the timeframes required by law.
