Applicable data-protection law

Processing by the controller in the United Kingdom is subject to the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018. The EU GDPR also applies where its scope is engaged.

Visiting the website

The web server processes technically necessary access data, such as IP address, time, requested file, and browser and operating-system details. Processing supports secure and stable operation on the basis of legitimate interests under Article 6(1)(f) UK GDPR or EU GDPR.

Contact form and central intake

The form sends your name, chosen contact method, contact details, optional country, subject and brief description over encrypted HTTPS to the central intake service. The information is stored in the enquiry database. Confirmation is issued only after successful storage. It confirms receipt, not acceptance of an engagement.

Purpose and protection of enquiries

Information is processed to handle the enquiry and consider a possible engagement, under Article 6(1)(b) UK GDPR or EU GDPR; Article 6(1)(a) applies where separate consent is required. Acknowledging this notice is not marketing consent. Technical references, logs and hashed identifiers protect against misuse and duplicate processing. The enquiry is queued for further handling without automatic email forwarding or a legal decision.

Data minimisation

The public form does not accept attachments. Do not send passwords, SMS codes, seed phrases, identity documents or unnecessary bank details. Use the designated protected channel for documents relating to an existing engagement. Entries remain available in the open form while receipt is unconfirmed.

Portals, cookies and media

The existing client-portal link explicitly leads to settelmayers.com. Protected sign-ins there use technically necessary session cookies. The public Partners website does not use analytics, tracking or advertising cookies. Fonts and website media are served with the website.

Recipients and transfers

Technical hosting and communication providers may process data within their functions. Case information is shared with authorised recipients only to the extent necessary. Cross-border handling must comply with applicable data-protection rules and the required transfer grounds.

Retention

Personal data is retained for the relevant purpose and thereafter only for applicable retention obligations or legitimate legal claims. Case documents are subject to separate statutory retention duties. Contact the operator to request information or erasure.

Your rights and contact

Subject to applicable law, you may request access, rectification, erasure, restriction and portability, and object to processing based on legitimate interests. Separately given consent may be withdrawn for the future. Use the contact details above. You may also complain to a competent supervisory authority, including the UK Information Commissioner’s Office or a relevant EU authority.
