We may place our own cookies or third parties may set and access their cookies, web beacons, embedded script or other technologies on your device, and they may otherwise collect or have access to Data about you that is governed by the third parties’ privacy policies.

We generally store Data (such as contact information) from Customers and Business Partners on servers in the European Union (EU).
Data in the EU is protected by Data Protection Laws, but other countries do not necessarily meet the same privacy standards. To provide our Service to you, we may be required to transfer some of your Data outside the territory of the UK or EEA (which means all EU countries including Norway, Iceland, and Liechtenstein) because some of our servers may be hosted in the US or other territories outside of the UK or EEA.
We may also use service providers (“Processors”) based outside of the UK or EEA to help us provide our websites and Services to you (for example, platform providers who help us deliver our Services, or advertising) and this means that we may transfer your Data to service providers outside the UK or EEA for the purpose of providing our applications, advertising, and Services to you.
By using our website or Services or by interacting with us in the ways described in this Privacy Policy, you agree to the transfer of your Data outside the UK or EEA in the circumstances set out in this Privacy Policy. If you do not want your Data to be transferred outside the UK or EEA, you should not use our website or Services.
We will retain your Data for the duration of our business relationship and afterwards for as long as is necessary and relevant for our legitimate business purposes, in accordance with Leads.io’s Data Retention Policy, or as otherwise permitted by applicable Data Protection Laws. We generally store non-qualified enquiries for 2 years and qualified enquiries for 7 years subject to exceptions where local retention laws require something else. Where we no longer need your Data, we will delete it in a secure manner (without further notice to you).
We implement reasonable security measures to protect Data from loss, misuse, alteration, or destruction. However, since no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage is 100% secure, there might be a very small chance that the Data collected by us may be compromised. If you believe that any Data has been compromised, please contact us. If we learn of a security systems breach, we will inform you and the authorities of the occurrence of the breach in accordance with the provisions of the applicable law.
For Europe: Under the (UK) GDPR, ‘Controllers’ are obligated to have a valid lawful basis for each processing activity that they undertake. The table below sets out our lawful basis for each processing activity.
Legal Grounds of Leads.io
Legal Grounds of Business Partners
After receiving your Data, Business Partners act as independent ‘Controllers' of your Data. To continuously process your Data after transfer of Leads.io (for example contacting you by telephone, text/SMS or email based on your Quote request) they also need a legal ground. This may be Consent, Contract or Legitimate Interest based on their own choice. You will find more information about how Business Partners process your Data in their Privacy Policy and Terms.
If you are based within the UK, EEA or within another jurisdiction having similar Data Protection Laws, in certain circumstances you have the following rights:
