Why we use personal information
Responding to enquiries, support requests and feedback
Our lawful basis is normally our legitimate interests in communicating with you and providing support. Where a communication directly relates to taking steps towards a contract at your request, the contractual lawful basis may also apply.
Operating, protecting and maintaining the website
Our lawful basis is our legitimate interests in keeping the website secure, reliable and functioning correctly.
Complying with legal obligations, data-protection requests and complaints
Our lawful basis is legal obligation, where applicable.
Optional technologies
Our lawful basis is consent, where legally required.
We do not currently use personal information collected through this website for targeted advertising.
Legitimate interests
Where we rely on legitimate interests, those interests include:
- responding to people who contact us;
- providing product and website support;
- maintaining website security and integrity;
- preventing misuse;
- operating and improving the public website.
We consider these interests against individuals’ privacy rights.
International transfers
Some providers used to operate the website may process information outside the UK, including in the United States.
Where a restricted transfer occurs, appropriate safeguards are used or required where applicable. These may include:
- adequacy regulations;
- the UK International Data Transfer Agreement;
- the UK Addendum to the EU Standard Contractual Clauses;
- another lawful transfer mechanism.

Retention
Enquiries and support communications are normally kept for up to 24 months after the last substantive contact, unless longer is reasonably required for an ongoing matter, legal obligation, dispute or legal claim.
Technical and security records under BOLT’s control are kept only as long as reasonably necessary, and normally no longer than 12 months where under BOLT’s control.
Records of legal or data-protection requests and complaints are kept as long as reasonably necessary to comply and deal with the matter.
When information is no longer required, it is deleted or anonymised where appropriate.
Security
We use reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Your data-protection rights
Where applicable, you may have the right to:
- access your personal information;
- rectification of inaccurate information;
- erasure;
- restriction of processing;
- object to processing;
- data portability;
