Legal Basis for Processing

Our legal bases for collecting and using your personal data depend on the specific context in which we collect it:

• Performance of a Contract: When processing is necessary for the performance of a contract to which you are a party, or to take steps at your request before entering into a contract (e.g., providing legal services).
• Legal Obligation: When processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which Ignis Lex is subject.
• Legitimate Interests: When processing is necessary for the purposes of our legitimate interests (or those of a third party), provided that your interests and fundamental rights do not override those interests (e.g., improving our services, ensuring site security).
• Consent: In some limited cases, we may rely on your consent to process certain personal data. You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time.

Data Sharing and Disclosure

We do not sell your personal data to third parties. We may share your information with:

• Service Providers: Third-party vendors who provide services on our behalf, such as IT support, hosting, or analytics. These providers are bound by strict confidentiality agreements and GDPR compliance.
• Legal and Regulatory Authorities: When required by law or necessary to respond to lawful requests (e.g., court orders, regulatory inquiries).
• Professional Advisors: Our auditors, lawyers, and other professional advisors.

International Data Transfers

Ignis Lex operates primarily within the UK. If we transfer personal data outside the UK or the European Economic Area (EEA), we will ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your data, such as relying on adequacy decisions, standard contractual clauses, or other legally recognised mechanisms.

Data Retention

We retain your personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. The retention period is determined by the type of data, the purpose of processing, and any legal obligations.
