Privacy & Data Integrity Policy

Contents

1. Commitment to Confidentiality

In accordance with our core principle of Operational Security (OPSEC), Dr Mark Yates is committed to the highest standards of data privacy. This policy outlines how we handle information to ensure the absolute discretion required by our global clientele.

2. Data Collection & Purpose

We collect only the essential information required to facilitate a strategic enquiry. This includes:

  • Identification Data: Name and corporate affiliation.
  • Contact Intelligence: Email addresses and secure telephone lines.
  • Briefing Data: Non-sensitive overviews of security requirements. All data is used exclusively to assess your mandate and initiate a confidential consultation.

3. Information Security

In line with UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018, all digital assets are protected by enterprise-grade encryption. We do not sell, trade, or lease your personal information to third parties. Your data is viewed only by Dr Mark Yates and his senior executive support team.

4. Data Retention & Erasure

To maintain a clean security footprint, we do not retain enquiry data beyond the duration of the initial vetting process unless a formal consultancy agreement is executed. You retain the “Right to be Forgotten” and may request the immediate purging of your data at any time.

5. Cookie Usage

This site utilises essential cookies to ensure platform stability and performance. We do not use intrusive tracking or third-party marketing cookies that compromise user anonymity.
