1. Who we are

APO UK ("we", "us", "our") provides outsourced finance support to UK businesses. We are the data controller responsible for your personal data. If you have any questions about this policy or how we handle your data, you can contact us using the details at the end of this page.

2. The information we collect

We collect information you give us directly - for example when you complete our contact form or email us. This may include:

• Your name and the name of your business
• Your email address and phone number
• Any details you choose to share about your finance setup or enquiry

We also collect limited technical information automatically when you visit this website, such as your browser type and how you use the site. See our Cookie Policy for more on this.

3. How we use your information

We use your personal data to:

• Respond to your enquiry and arrange a consultation
• Provide and manage the finance services you request
• Communicate with you about our services
• Meet our legal and regulatory obligations

We rely on your consent, the performance of a contract, and our legitimate business interests as the lawful bases for processing your data, depending on the situation.

4. Sharing your information

We do not sell your personal data. We may share it with trusted service providers who help us run our business (for example, IT and communication tools), and with regulators or authorities where we are legally required to do so. Any provider we use is required to keep your data secure and use it only for the purpose we specify.

5. How long we keep it

We keep your personal data only for as long as necessary to provide our services and to meet our legal, accounting and reporting obligations. When it is no longer needed, we securely delete or anonymise it.

6. Your rights

Under UK data protection law you have the right to access your data, ask us to correct or delete it, object to or restrict how we use it, and request a copy in a portable format. You can also withdraw consent at any time where we rely on it. To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details below.

If you are unhappy with how we have handled your data, you have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) at ico.org.uk. APO UK is registered with the ICO under registration number ZC205013.

7. How we protect your data
