Privacy notice.

Last updated: 26 July 2026

In summary: this version of the website does not use analytics, advertising trackers or non-essential cookies. When you choose to contact Auctaris, we use the information you send to respond and manage the resulting business relationship.

Who we are

Auctaris is a B2B sales and growth business based in Leeds, United Kingdom. For the purposes of UK data-protection law, Auctaris is the controller of personal information covered by this notice.

You can contact us at info@auctaris.co.uk.

Information we collect

When you contact us, we may receive:

• your name, job title and company;
• your work email address and other business contact details you choose to provide;
• your company website; and
• the contents of your enquiry and subsequent correspondence.

Our website host may also process standard technical records, such as an IP address, browser information, date and time of access, and requested pages, for security, reliability and troubleshooting.

How information reaches us

The contact form on this website does not send information to a website database. When you submit it, your own email application opens with a prepared message. Information reaches Auctaris only when you choose to send that email.

We may also receive business contact information directly from you, from your organisation, from publicly available professional sources, or from reputable business-data providers where permitted by law.

How and why we use information

We use personal information to:

• respond to enquiries and arrange consultations;
• assess whether our services may be suitable;
• prepare, enter into and manage business relationships;
• maintain business, security and compliance records; and
• protect our legal rights and prevent misuse of our services.

Our lawful bases

Depending on the circumstances, we rely on:

• legitimate interests — to respond to business enquiries, operate and secure our business, and communicate with relevant business contacts, provided those interests are not overridden by your rights;
• steps before entering into a contract or performance of a contract — where you ask us to provide information, a proposal or services; and
• legal obligations — where we need to keep or disclose information to comply with applicable law.

Business communications and outreach

Auctaris may contact relevant business representatives about services that may reasonably be of interest to their organisation. We aim to use professional contact details, keep communications relevant and provide a clear way to opt out. You can ask us to stop at any time by replying to the message or emailing info@auctaris.co.uk.

Who we share information with

We do not sell personal information. We may share it only where necessary with:

• email, website-hosting, IT and security providers;
• professional advisers, such as accountants or legal advisers;
• contractors supporting our services under appropriate confidentiality obligations; and
• regulators, courts or public authorities where required by law.

Our business email is provided through Google Workspace. Some service providers may process information outside the United Kingdom. Where this happens, we rely on appropriate legal safeguards required by data-protection law.

How long we keep information

General enquiries that do not lead to a business relationship are normally kept for up to 24 months after the last meaningful contact. Where a business relationship is established, relevant records may be kept for longer where needed to manage the relationship, resolve disputes, or meet legal, tax and accounting requirements. We securely delete or anonymise information when it is no longer required.

Cookies and analytics

This version of the website does not intentionally set analytics, advertising or other non-essential cookies. We do not currently use website analytics or behavioural advertising. If this changes, we will update this notice and introduce appropriate choices before non-essential technologies are used.

Your rights

Subject to applicable law, you may have the right to request access to your personal information, correction, deletion, restriction, portability, or to object to particular uses. Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time.

To exercise a right, email info@auctaris.co.uk. We may need to verify your identity before acting on a request.

Complaints

Please contact us first at info@auctaris.co.uk so we can investigate and respond to your concern. You also have the right to complain to the UK Information Commissioner's Office.

Changes to this notice

We may update this notice when our services, website tools or legal obligations change. The latest version will be published on this page with a revised update date.
