Privacy Policy.

Last Updated: March 2026

1. Introduction

UtterConnection ("we", "us", or "our") respects your privacy and is committed to protecting your personal data. This privacy policy will inform you as to how we look after your personal data when you visit our website (utterconnection.com) or use our services, and tell you about your privacy rights and how the law protects you.

2. The Data We Collect About You

We may collect, use, store, and transfer different kinds of personal data about you which we have grouped together as follows:

• Identity Data: includes first name, last name, title, and company name.
• Contact Data: includes business email address, telephone numbers, and professional social media profiles (e.g., LinkedIn).
• Technical Data: includes internet protocol (IP) address, your login data, browser type and version, time zone setting and location, browser plug-in types and versions, operating system and platform, and other technology on the devices you use to access this website.
• Usage Data: includes information about how you use our website and services.
• Marketing and Communications Data: includes your preferences in receiving marketing from us and your communication preferences.

3. How We Use Your Personal Data

We will only use your personal data when the law allows us to. Most commonly, we will use your personal data in the following circumstances:

• Where we need to perform the contract we are about to enter into or have entered into with you (e.g., providing AI consultancy services).
• Where it is necessary for our legitimate interests (or those of a third party) and your interests and fundamental rights do not override those interests.
• Where we need to comply with a legal or regulatory obligation.

4. Data Security

We have put in place appropriate security measures to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used, or accessed in an unauthorised way, altered, or disclosed. As a consultancy serving the legal sector, we treat the confidentiality and security of our clients' data — and their clients' data — as our highest priority.

5. Data Retention

We will only retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. By law we have to keep basic information about our clients (including Contact, Identity, Financial, and Transaction Data) for six years after they cease being clients for tax purposes.

6. Your Legal Rights

Under certain circumstances, you have rights under data protection laws (UK GDPR) in relation to your personal data, including the right to:

• Request access to your personal data.
• Request correction of your personal data.
• Request erasure of your personal data.
• Object to processing of your personal data.
• Request restriction of processing your personal data.
• Request transfer of your personal data.
• Right to withdraw consent.

If you wish to exercise any of the rights set out above, please contact us via our contact page.

7. Data Processing Addendum (DPA)

When providing our consultancy services (including the Institutional Sight framework implementation), UtterConnection acts as a Data Processor under the UK GDPR. In accordance with Article 28 of the UK GDPR, we process any client personal data solely on the documented instructions of the data controller (our client law firm). Our standard engagement terms incorporate a comprehensive Data Processing Addendum (DPA) which guarantees: (1) all client data remains strictly within the UK/EU, (2) zero retention or training use of data by third-party LLM providers, and (3) immediate deletion of data upon contract termination.
