Privacy Policy
How we collect, use and protect information when you use this website.
Last updated: October 14, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how Whitmarsh Consulting Group ("WCG", "we", "us") handles personal information collected through wcg-bp.com (the "Site").
Information we collect
Information you give us
When you use our contact form, we collect the details you provide: your name, company, email address, area of interest and message.
Information collected automatically
Like most websites, our hosting provider's servers automatically record standard technical information such as your IP address, browser type, pages requested and the date and time of your visit. When you submit the contact form, we also record your IP address to help prevent spam and abuse.
How we use your information
- To respond to your enquiry and continue any conversation you start with us.
- To protect the Site and our contact form from spam, misuse and security threats.
- To operate, maintain and improve the Site.
We do not sell your personal information, and we do not use contact form submissions to add you to marketing lists without your agreement.
Legal basis
Where data protection laws require a legal basis, we rely on your consent (which you give when submitting the contact form) and on our legitimate interests in responding to enquiries and keeping the Site secure.
Sharing your information
We share information only with service providers that help us run the Site and handle email, such as our web hosting and email providers, and only as needed for those services. We may also disclose information where required by law or to protect our rights and the safety of others.
Cookies and third-party services
This Site does not use advertising or analytics cookies. To display our typefaces, the Site loads fonts from Google Fonts, which means your browser connects to Google's servers and shares your IP address with Google. Google's use of that information is governed by Google's Privacy Policy (opens in a new tab).
Links to other websites
The Site links to other websites, including HR Virtual Expo, HR Bulletins and Best Practice in HR. Those websites are operated separately and have their own privacy policies. We are not responsible for their privacy practices.
How long we keep information
We keep enquiry emails for as long as needed to respond and to maintain a record of our business communications, and then delete them when they are no longer required. Server logs are retained according to our hosting provider's standard practices.
Security
We take reasonable measures to protect personal information. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct or delete the personal information we hold about you, to object to or restrict certain processing, and to withdraw your consent at any time. To make a request, contact us using the contact form.
Children
This Site is intended for business audiences and is not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date above shows when it was last revised.
