Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

Welcome to Sylvyn Ltd. We are committed to protecting the privacy and confidentiality of the data entrusted to us. This Privacy Policy details how we handle the limited personal data we collect through our website, in absolute alignment with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018.

2. The Data We Collect

We operate on a first-principles basis of minimal data collection. We do not use web forms. When you browse our website, we only collect:

Identity and Contact Data: Specifically, any details you voluntarily provide when you click our email links (such as rob@sylvyn.co.uk or land@sylvyn.co.uk) to correspond with us. This includes your name, email address, and phone number, and any other information contained within your email.

Technical and Usage Data: We use standard web analytics tools to collect anonymised technical data, including your IP address (anonymised), browser type, time zone, and how you interact with our site. This is strictly to improve user experience and does not identify individuals.

3. Our Legal Basis for Processing Data

We only process data where we have a lawful basis to do so. Our primary bases are:

Legitimate Interests: We process your contact details to respond to your professional inquiries regarding investment opportunities, strategic land assembly, or supply chain partnerships.

Contractual Obligation: We process data that is strictly necessary to perform a contract we are about to enter into or have already entered into with you (e.g., an Option Agreement or an EWA).

4. Sharing and Disclosure

We do not sell, trade, or rent personal data. We only share data with trusted third-party service providers (such as IT support, legal advisors, and consultants) who are strictly necessary to conduct our operations. All such partners are bound by rigorous non-disclosure and confidentiality agreements.

We will disclose your data if required by law to comply with legal processes or government requests.

5. International Transfers

To ensure maximum confidentiality, we do not transfer your personal data outside the United Kingdom (UK) unless strictly required by a specific contractual obligation and only then to jurisdictions with verified adequacy status. Standard contractual clauses (SCCs) approved by the UK Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) are implemented where necessary.

6. Data Security

Security and confidentiality are central to our operations, particularly during stealth-mode developments. We have implemented robust technical and organisational security measures to prevent your data from being accidentally lost, used, or accessed in an unauthorised way. Access to any specific project data is tightly controlled and is always subject to a signed Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA).

7. Data Retention

We only retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. Professional inquiries are generally retained for up to six years following the last correspondence, unless a formal contract is executed.

8. Your Rights

Under UK GDPR, you have significant rights regarding your personal data. This includes the right to request access to your data, request the correction of inaccurate data, request the erasure of your data, object to processing, and request the restriction of processing.

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us directly. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the UK Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) at any time, although we invite you to discuss any concerns with us first.
