Introduction

Wholepal Limited (“Wholepal”) is a limited company based in the United Kingdom. We are responsible for the website wholepal.com and its subdomains. Wholepal is committed to respecting your privacy and is committed to complying with data protection and privacy laws that apply to the processing of the data that Wholepal collects.

‍Our Approach

‍We use a range of services to publish our work, tell people what Wholepal is up to, listen to what you have to say, and learn how we can improve at doing all three.Like most businesses we rely on partners to provide the services and tools we cannot make for ourselves. We use industry standard products. Webflow provides our website content management system, and web hosting. We use Google for our website analytics.This policy is an easy to read explanation of what these services are, who provides them, and how we handle data for visitors to our website. Wholepal also provides clarity on how we handle potential and existing clients and job applicants. Wholepal is a new business, however it is our belief that data should only be collected if we absolutely need to. Our data collection is minimal and will always be minimal.

‍This Privacy Policy

‍This policy was last updated on 26th February 2024. It will be updated when required to reflect changes in how Wholepal collects and uses personal data as needs arise.

Social Media Accounts

We primarily use LinkedIn for community engagement. When visitors leave comments on the site or on one of our social media accounts we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection. If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognise and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.The data collected and stored in the servers will assist Wholepal and our customers maintain and improve data security.The lawful basis for processing data for the purpose of security is legitimate interest. The servers are located in the United Kingdom and globally.
