Security & privacy

Your security

Secure (HTTPS) connection

Every page of our site uses a secure (HTTPS) connection.  This means that your personal information is encrypted before being sent back and forth between your computer and our site — to ensure your information is protected at all times.  It makes sure that your information is being sent to us and not to anyone else, and it also means that your navigation history is kept private.

You can verify that you’re on a secure server by checking the address at the top of your browser begins with https://.

Your privacy

We protect your privacy and process your personal information in line with the GDPR, the Data Protection Act 2018 and our own privacy policy.

In short, this means that we will not sell or pass on your information to anyone else, or use it for any purpose other than to prepare your deed poll documentation and our own administration.  We will keep your personal data for 56 days after we have processed your application, except your e‑mail address (which we keep for 112 days).

Cookies & JavaScript

You'll need to have cookies and JavaScript enabled in your browser for the online application form to work correctly.  If you are not sure what that means, you probably don't have to do anything — all the common browsers have cookies and JavaScript enabled by default.
