Privacy Policy
Effective Date: 16th July 2026
Last Updated: 16th July 2026
We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal data. This Privacy Policy explains how Precise Business Data ("we," "our," or "us") collects, uses, and safeguards your business information when you visit our website precisebusinessdata.co.uk (the "Site") or engage with us for business purposes.
We act as a Data Controller in respect of any personal data we collect from you, in accordance with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018.
1. The Personal Data We Collect
We only collect business-to-business (B2B) contact information necessary to conduct business and provide our services. This includes:
-
Identity Data: Employee first name and last name.
-
Professional Data: Company name and job title.
-
Contact Data: Company telephone number, direct business phone number, business mobile number, and work email address.
-
Technical Data: Your IP address and basic browser details collected automatically when you visit our Site.
2. Our Lawful Basis for Using Your Data
Under the UK GDPR, we must have a lawful basis to process your information. We rely on the following bases:
-
Legitimate Interests: To communicate with you regarding professional inquiries, manage our ongoing business relationship with your company, and send B2B marketing communications. We ensure our legitimate business interests do not override your fundamental rights.
-
Performance of a Contract: To take steps to enter into or perform a contract with your company (e.g., providing quotes, managing billing, or delivering services).
-
Legal Obligation: To comply with UK legal and regulatory requirements (such as tax and accounting laws).
3. B2B Marketing and PECR
Under the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR), we may send electronic marketing communications (such as emails) to corporate email addresses (e.g., name@company.co.uk) under the "corporate subscriber" rules.
If you are a sole trader or a partner in an unincorporated partnership, we will only send you electronic marketing if you have consented to receive it.
Your Right to Opt-Out: You can opt-out of receiving any marketing communications from us at any time by clicking the "unsubscribe" link in our emails or by contacting us directly.
4. Sharing Your Personal Data
We do not sell your data. We only share your business contact details with trusted third parties who assist us in running our business, such as:
-
IT, CRM, and website hosting providers.
-
Professional advisers (lawyers, accountants, or insurers).
-
Regulators and law enforcement agencies if required by UK law.
5. International Data Transfers
Some of our external third-party service providers are based outside the UK (for example, in the United States). Whenever we transfer your personal data out of the UK, we ensure a similar degree of protection is afforded to it by ensuring appropriate safeguards—such as UK Approved Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs)—are in place.
6. How Long We Keep Your Data
We will only keep your business contact details for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes we collected them for, including satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.
7. Your Legal Rights
Under the UK GDPR, you have the following rights regarding your personal data:
-
Access: Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
-
Correction: Ask us to correct inaccurate or incomplete data.
-
Erasure: Request that we delete your personal data (the "right to be forgotten").
-
Restriction: Request that we temporarily limit how we process your data.
-
Objection: Object to us processing your data under "Legitimate Interests" or for direct marketing.
To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the details below.

We would, however, appreciate the chance to deal with your concerns before you approach the ICO, so please contact us first.
