Privacy Policy

How we collect, use and protect your information.

Who we are

SpendWise (“we”, “us”, “our”) is a UK business services and finance brokerage. We act as the data controller for personal information collected through this website and our day-to-day dealings with you. Our company number is SC881063.

Information we collect

We only collect information that is relevant to the services you ask us about. This may include:

  • your name and business name;
  • contact details such as your email address and phone number;
  • the details you choose to share in an enquiry form, email or phone call;
  • any additional information you provide so that we can introduce you to a service or funding provider.

We do not collect special category data, and we do not collect information from children.

How we use your information

We use your information to:

  • respond to your enquiries and provide quotes or options;
  • arrange the services you have asked us to approach providers or funders about;
  • keep records of our dealings with you;
  • meet our legal and regulatory obligations.

The legal bases we rely on are your consent (for example, when you submit an enquiry form), the performance of a contract or steps taken at your request before entering one, and our legitimate interests in operating and promoting our business. You may withdraw consent at any time by contacting us.

Sharing your information

We never sell your personal information. We may share it with:

  • service or funding providers you have asked us to approach on your behalf;
  • professional advisers where reasonably required;
  • technology providers who host our website, forms or email, acting on our instructions;
  • authorities or regulators where the law requires it.

Forms and third-party services

Enquiry forms on this website may be operated by a third-party form provider. Your submissions are passed to us so that we can respond. Those providers act as processors and handle your information in line with their own privacy notices.

Cookies

This website uses only the cookies strictly necessary for it to function. We do not use advertising or cross-site tracking cookies. Embedded third-party services may set their own cookies; you can control these through your browser settings.

How long we keep your information

We keep your information only as long as we need it to handle your enquiries, provide our services and meet our legal obligations, after which it is securely deleted.

Your rights

Under UK data protection law you have the right to:

  • ask for a copy of the personal information we hold about you;
  • ask us to correct information that is inaccurate;
  • ask us to delete information in certain circumstances;
  • object to or restrict certain processing, or ask us to move your information to another provider;
  • withdraw consent where that is our legal basis for processing.

If you are unhappy with how we handle your information you can contact us directly, or complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) at ico.org.uk.

Questions, requests or complaints about your privacy can be sent to theutilityguyltd@gmail.com or by calling 07508 439670.
