What personal data we collect and why

1.1 Enquiry and contact data

When you submit an enquiry through the contact form on this site or correspond with the studio by email or telephone, we collect: your name, email address, telephone number (if provided), and the content of your message. This data is processed on the legal basis of legitimate interest (responding to your enquiry) and, where a programme agreement follows, on the legal basis of contract performance.

Enquiry data is retained for a period of three years from the date of last contact, after which it is securely deleted unless a continuing contractual relationship requires longer retention.

1.2 Website usage data

When you visit oralu.info, we may collect standard server log data including your IP address, browser type and version, operating system, referring URL, pages visited, and the date and time of access. This data is collected for the purposes of maintaining site security, diagnosing technical issues, and understanding aggregate usage patterns. Individual server log records are retained for a maximum of 12 months.

If you have consented to analytics cookies, we also collect anonymised behavioural data through third-party analytics tools. See the Cookie Policy for full details.

1.3 Programme membership data

If you engage with an Oralu programme, we collect and process: your name, contact details, programme selection, correspondence records relating to the programme, and payment records where applicable. This data is processed on the legal basis of contract performance. Programme records are retained for six years from the end of the relevant engagement, in accordance with UK financial record-keeping requirements.
