Privacy Policy

Fischer Consulting Limited (“we”, “us”) operates this website, www.fischerconsulting.co.uk. We are committed to protecting your privacy. This notice explains how we collect, use and protect personal data in connection with this website and enquiries made through it, in accordance with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018.

This notice covers this consultancy website only. It does not cover Professor Fischer’s clinical practice, which is subject to its own privacy arrangements.

What data we collect

• Enquiry details — when you use our contact form we collect your name, organisation, role, email address, the type of engagement you are interested in and the description you provide.
• Correspondence — any further information you share with us by email or in subsequent discussions about an engagement.
• Technical data — IP address, browser and device information, and details of how you use the site, collected through cookies and similar technologies where you consent to them.
• Spam-protection data — this site is protected by Google reCAPTCHA, which collects device and interaction data to distinguish people from automated traffic.

Why we use your data

• Responding to enquiries and arranging engagements — to assess and reply to your enquiry and to take steps towards an engagement at your request (legitimate interests and steps prior to entering a contract).
• Running and improving the website — analytics, performance and troubleshooting (consent for cookies; legitimate interests for essential operation).
• Protecting the website — preventing spam and abuse through reCAPTCHA and server security measures (legitimate interests).
• Legal obligations — keeping records we are required to keep and responding to lawful requests.

We do not use the information you submit through this website for automated decision-making, and we do not sell your data.

Google reCAPTCHA

This site is protected by reCAPTCHA and the Google Privacy Policy and Terms of Service apply.

Cookies

We use cookies to make the website work and, with your consent, to understand how it is used. You can set or change your preferences at any time through the cookie banner on this site, and you can also manage cookies in your browser settings.

Who we share your data with

• Google, in connection with reCAPTCHA and, where you consent to analytics cookies, website analytics;
• Professional advisers, and regulators or authorities where we are legally required to do so.

Some providers (such as Google) may process data outside the United Kingdom. Where that happens, transfers are protected by UK adequacy decisions or appropriate safeguards such as the UK International Data Transfer Agreement.

How long we keep your data

• Enquiries and related correspondence — for as long as needed to deal with your enquiry, and typically no longer than two years after our last contact, unless an engagement follows;
• Records relating to an engagement — up to six years after the engagement ends, in line with legal limitation periods;
• Technical and security logs — for short periods consistent with normal website operation.
