Privacy notice.

Protection enquiries can be sensitive. This notice describes the information that may be handled and the controls applied to it.

1. Information we may receive

Depending on how you contact us, information may include:

  • your name, role, organisation and contact details;
  • assignment locations, dates, party size and service requirements;
  • travel, venue or risk information you choose to provide;
  • communications and decisions relating to an enquiry; and
  • basic technical information generated when the website is accessed, such as security and server logs.
Do not include passport numbers, payment-card details, medical records, exact home addresses or other highly sensitive personal information in an initial email unless we specifically request it through an appropriate communication route.

2. Why information is used

Information may be used to respond to an enquiry, understand and assess requirements, prepare a proposed scope, coordinate suitable providers or personnel, administer an agreed assignment, maintain security, meet legal obligations and handle disputes or records.

3. Sharing

Information is not sold. When necessary to assess or deliver a requested assignment, limited information may be shared with prospective or confirmed protection providers, personnel, transport partners, venues, advisers, insurers or technology providers. We aim to share only what is reasonably required for the relevant step.

4. International handling

An international itinerary may require information to be handled in more than one country. Where applicable, reasonable contractual, organisational or legal safeguards will be considered before personal information is transferred internationally.

5. Retention and security

Enquiry and assignment information is kept only for as long as reasonably needed for the purpose collected, legal and insurance requirements, record keeping and the handling of potential claims. Reasonable access controls and security measures are used, but no internet or email transmission can be guaranteed completely secure.

6. Cookies and analytics

We do not add advertising or behavioural-profiling cookies to this website. The hosting service may process essential technical data or logs needed to deliver, secure and maintain the site.

7. Your choices and rights

Depending on the law that applies, you may have rights to request access, correction, deletion, restriction, objection, portability or withdrawal of consent. These rights may be limited where records must be retained for legal, security or contractual reasons.

8. Contact

Privacy questions and requests can be sent to enquiries@internationalbodyguards.net. Please use “Privacy request” in the subject line.
