4. Who we share information with
We may use trusted service providers to help us host, secure, maintain or communicate through the website and our business systems. They may process personal information only where needed to provide those services to us and subject to appropriate safeguards.
We may also disclose information where required by law, to protect legal rights or security, or in connection with a business restructuring or transfer where lawful.
We do not sell personal information.

We keep personal information only for as long as it is reasonably needed for the purpose for which it was collected, including to respond to an enquiry, provide services, maintain appropriate business records and meet legal obligations.
Retention periods vary according to the type of information and the reason we hold it.
6. Your data protection rights
Depending on the circumstances, UK data protection law gives you rights including access to your personal information, correction of inaccurate information, deletion, restriction, objection to certain processing and data portability. These rights do not apply in every situation.
Where processing is based on consent, you can withdraw that consent at any time.
To exercise a right, contact hello@hewhub.com. We may need to verify your identity before acting on a request.
You also have the right to complain to the UK Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) if you are unhappy with how your information has been handled.
7. Security and international transfers
We use technical and organisational measures designed to protect personal information against unauthorised access, loss, misuse or disclosure.
Where a service provider processes information outside the United Kingdom, we will use an appropriate lawful transfer mechanism where required.
