- Who we are
Beyond Ads Marketing, trading as Beyond Marketing ("we", "us"). We're responsible for the personal information described on this page. If you have a question about it, email us at info@beyondmarketing.uk.
- What we collect
- When you book a free audit: your website, Instagram or Google listing, where you think you're losing customers, a line in your own words, the day and time you pick, your name and email, and your phone number if you give it. If someone referred you and you tell us who, their name.
- When you send us a message: your name, email and message.
- When you apply for a job: your name, email, phone number, where you're based, the role, whether you have the right to work in the UK, your CV, and anything else you choose to add, such as a cover letter, links, notice period, salary expectations and how you heard about us.
- When you visit the site: an anonymous summary of the visit. That's a random visit code that isn't linked to you, the pages you looked at, how long you stayed, how many times you clicked, whether you opened the booking or contact form, and the website you came from. It uses no cookies, and we don't keep your IP address with it.
- Why we use it, and our lawful basis
- To prepare for and hold your free audit, reply to your messages and follow up. You've asked us to, so this is a step before a possible contract, and it's in our legitimate interests to answer enquiries.
- To consider your job application, as a step before a possible employment contract. If you tick the box to keep your CV for other roles, we rely on your consent, and you can withdraw it at any time.
- To understand how the site is used and improve it, in our legitimate interests, using only the anonymous visit summaries.
- To keep the records the law requires, such as accounts if you become a client.
We don't sell your information, and we don't use it to make automated decisions about you.
- Who sees it
Ismail and Istvan, our founders, and anyone on our team who needs it to work with you. We also use trusted providers who handle it only on our instructions: Vercel hosts the website, Resend sends the site's emails, and Google Workspace runs our email.
- Outside the UK
Some of these providers are based in, or use services in, the United States. When your information leaves the UK, it's protected by the safeguards UK law requires, such as the UK–US data bridge or the UK's standard contract clauses.
- How long we keep it
- Booking requests and messages that don't lead to work: up to 12 months after we last spoke, then deleted.
- If you become a client: for as long as we work together, then up to 6 years for our accounts and legal records.
- Job applications: until the role is filled, then deleted. If you tick the box to keep your CV, up to 12 months, so we can consider you for other roles.
- Visit summaries: deleted automatically from our hosting provider's logs within a day.
- Your rights
You can ask to see the information we hold about you, have it corrected or deleted, limit how we use it, object to how we use it, or get a copy to take elsewhere. Where we rely on your consent, you can withdraw it at any time. Email info@beyondmarketing.uk and we'll reply within one month. There's no charge.
- Complaints
If you're unhappy with how we've handled your information, please tell us first so we can put it right. You can also complain to the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk or on 0303 123 1113.
- Changes
If anything changes, we'll update this page and the date at the top.
