Privacy policy

Who we are

North (northproject.co) is a Data & AI consultancy run by Christopher Holmes. We are the data controller for personal data collected through this website. You can contact us at [email protected].

What we collect

If you email us, we collect your name, email address and anything you choose to tell us in your message. If you accept analytics cookies, we also collect anonymous information about how you use this website (see below).

How we use it

We use your details only to reply to your enquiry and, if you ask, to discuss how we could help. Our lawful basis is our legitimate interest in responding to enquiries, or taking steps at your request before entering into a contract. We do not sell your data or use it for automated decisions about you.

Who we share it with

We use a small number of trusted providers to run this website: Cloudflare (website hosting) and Google (email, and website analytics only if you accept cookies). They process data on our behalf under their data processing terms. Some of these providers may process data outside the UK, in which case appropriate safeguards such as the UK International Data Transfer Addendum apply.

How long we keep it

We keep enquiries and related correspondence for up to 24 months after our last contact with you, then delete them. You can ask us to delete your data sooner.

Your rights

Under UK data protection law you have the right to access, correct or delete your personal data, to object to or restrict how we use it, and to data portability. To use any of these rights, email [email protected]. If you are unhappy with how we have handled your data, you can complain to the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk.

Cookies and analytics

With your permission, we use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use this website, such as which pages are viewed and how people arrive here. This sets cookies named _ga and _ga_*, which last for up to two years. Google Analytics is provided by Google Ireland Limited, which processes this data on our behalf. IP addresses are not stored, and we do not use advertising or remarketing cookies.

These cookies are only set if you click "Accept" on our cookie banner. Our lawful basis is your consent. You can change your mind at any time: open cookie settings.

We remember your cookie choice in your own browser for six months. This is not shared with us.
