Privacy & Cookie Policy

Page Architects Ltd treats your privacy very seriously and we are committed to ensuring your personal data is protected.

What are your individual rights?

Right to request deletion of your data - We promise to look at your request individually and delete any data that may no longer be required or not related to our outstanding obligations or requirements where law and regulation permits us to do so.

Right to restrict processing - You can ask that we block or suppress the processing of your personal information for certain reasons.

Right to data portability - You can ask for a copy of your personal information for your own purposes to use across different services. In certain circumstances, you may transfer some of the information we hold to another company in a safe and secure way, for example, if you were moving your portfolio to a new provider.
