Privacy Policy
Last updated: 21 October 2026
This policy explains what personal data Global Diversity Practice collects, why, who else handles it, and what you can ask us to do with it. It covers visitors to this website, people who send us an enquiry, and our clients, suppliers and other contacts.

What we collect when you browse this website
You can read this website without giving us any personal information. We do not use advertising or tracking cookies, and we do not build profiles of visitors.
When you visit a page, some technical information is handled automatically:
- Hosting and security. Cloudflare hosts this website. To deliver pages and protect the site from attacks, Cloudflare processes your IP address and details of your request, such as your browser type and the page you asked for.
- Visitor statistics. We use Cloudflare Web Analytics to count page visits and see how quickly pages load. It sets no cookies, stores nothing on your device and does not track you across other websites.
Our Cookie Policy lists the few items that third-party services may store in your browser.
What we collect when you contact us
Our contact form asks for:
- your name
- your email address
- your organisation
- your phone number (optional)
- your message
You also tick a box to agree that we may use these details to respond to your enquiry. If you email or phone us instead, we keep a record of that correspondence.
When you send the form:
- Cloudflare Turnstile checks that you are a person and not an automated program. It processes your IP address and technical details of your browser to do this.
- Our website limits how many messages can be sent from one IP address in a minute, to stop abuse. Your IP address is used for this check and is not stored by us.
- Your enquiry is emailed to our team at info@globaldiversitypractice.com. We use Resend, an email delivery service, to send it.
- A copy is posted to our team’s internal Slack workspace so the right person can pick it up quickly.
The website itself does not keep a copy of your enquiry.
We do not ask for sensitive information through this website, such as health, ethnicity, religion or sexual orientation. Please do not include it in your message. If we ever need it for a piece of work, we will explain why and ask for your explicit consent.
Why we use your data, and our legal basis
UK law requires us to have a legal reason, called a lawful basis, for each use of your data.
| What we do | Lawful basis |
|---|---|
| Reply to your enquiry and follow it up | Your consent, given with the tick box on the form. You can withdraw it at any time. |
| Provide our services to clients and work with suppliers | The contract with you or your organisation, or steps you ask us to take before one |
| Keep the website secure and stop spam and abuse | Our legitimate interest in protecting the site and our inbox |
| Count visits to improve the website | Our legitimate interest in understanding how the site is used. No personal profile is built. |
| Send marketing emails, where you have agreed to receive them | Your consent |
| Keep records we must keep by law, such as accounts | Legal obligation |
Who we share your data with
We do not sell or rent your personal data to anyone.
These service providers handle data for us, only on our instructions:
| Provider | What they do for us |
|---|---|
| Cloudflare | Hosts the website, protects it from attacks, provides the Turnstile check and visitor statistics |
| Resend | Delivers contact form enquiries to our email inbox |
| Slack | Our team’s internal messaging, where enquiries are shared |
If your enquiry is about a diversity matter, we may share it with our advisory board, partners, trainers, consultants or associates so the right expert can help you.
We may also share data when the law requires it.
Data sent outside the UK
Cloudflare, Resend and Slack are based in the United States, and some of your data may be stored or processed there or in other countries. When data leaves the UK, we rely on the protections UK law allows. These include contract terms approved by the UK government, such as the International Data Transfer Addendum, or the UK–US data bridge where a provider is certified under it.
How long we keep your data
We keep website enquiries and the correspondence that follows for up to two years after our last contact with you. Then we delete them.
If your enquiry leads to work with us, we keep the related records for as long as the law requires us to keep business records.
You can ask us to delete your data at any time (see “Your rights” below).
Marketing
Sending the contact form does not sign you up to marketing.
If you have agreed to hear from us, we may send you news about our work and services. You can stop this at any time. Use the “Unsubscribe” link in any of our emails, or email data@globaldiversitypractice.com.
Keeping your data safe
Every page of this website, and the contact form, is sent over an encrypted connection (HTTPS).
No system on the internet is completely secure. Ordinary email can be intercepted, so please do not send confidential details by email.
Children
Our services are for people aged 16 and over. We do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone younger without a parent’s consent.
Your rights
Under UK data protection law, you have the right to:
- ask for a copy of the personal data we hold about you
- ask us to correct data that is wrong or incomplete
- ask us to delete your data
- ask us to limit how we use your data
- object to us using your data, including for marketing
- ask us to send your data to you or another organisation in a common format
- withdraw your consent at any time, where we rely on it
To use any of these rights, email data@globaldiversitypractice.com. We will reply within one month. There is usually no charge.
Complaints
If you are unhappy with how we have handled your data, please tell us first so we can put it right.
You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO), the UK’s data protection regulator. Visit ico.org.uk/make-a-complaint or call 0303 123 1113.
