Privacy Policy

    Last updated: April 2026

    Who we are

    This website is operated by Appero Studio Limited, a company registered in England and Wales (Company No. 17144999). Our registered office is 134 Runcorn Road, Northwich, CW8 4HS. You can contact us at hello@appero.studio.

    What information we collect

    We collect personal information only when you actively provide it to us. This includes:

    • Your name and email address when you submit the contact form
    • Any additional information you choose to include in your message

    We do not collect sensitive personal data, and we do not collect information from children under 16.

    Why we collect it

    We use your information solely to respond to your enquiry and communicate with you about potential or ongoing work. We do not use it for marketing without your explicit consent, and we do not sell or share it with third parties.

    Legal basis for processing

    Under UK GDPR, we process your data on the basis of legitimate interests — specifically, to respond to a business enquiry you have initiated.

    How long we keep it

    We retain enquiry data for up to 24 months. If we enter into a working relationship, we will retain relevant correspondence for up to 6 years in line with UK tax and contract law. You can ask us to delete your data at any time (see Your Rights below).

    Cookies

    This website uses two types of cookies:

    • Essential cookies are required for the site to function correctly. These are set automatically and cannot be disabled.
    • Analytics cookies are set by Google Analytics (GA4) to help us understand how visitors use the site — for example, which pages are most visited and how people find us. No personally identifiable information is collected. These cookies are only set after you give consent via the cookie banner.

    You can accept or decline analytics cookies at any time using the cookie consent banner. If you decline, only essential cookies will be used.

    For more information on how Google handles data, see Google's Privacy Policy.

    Third parties

    Your contact form submission is delivered to us via email. No data is sold, rented, or shared with any third party for marketing or commercial purposes.

    Your rights

    Under UK GDPR, you have the right to:

    • Access the personal data we hold about you
    • Request correction of inaccurate data
    • Request deletion of your data
    • Object to or restrict our processing of your data
    • Lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) at ico.org.uk

    To exercise any of these rights, email us at hello@appero.studio. We will respond within 30 days.
