Last updated: July 2026

Who I am

Helen Cope Marketing is a marketing consultancy based in Portsmouth, Hampshire. For anything in this policy, contact me at hello@helencope.com or on 07927 527 646.

What I collect

Information you give me directly — your name, business name, email address, phone number and anything you include in a message or call. Plus limited technical data (pages visited, device type) collected via analytics cookies, with your consent.

How I use it

To reply to enquiries, provide my services, keep simple business records, and understand how the website is used so I can improve it. I don’t sell your data, and I don’t send marketing emails you haven’t asked for.

Legal bases

Responding to an enquiry and delivering services: contract and legitimate interest. Analytics cookies: consent. Record-keeping: legal obligation.

Sharing

Your data is shared only with the service providers that run this website and my business tools (hosting, email, analytics), all bound by their own data-protection obligations. Never sold, never traded.

How long I keep it

Enquiry details for as long as needed to handle the enquiry; client records for the duration of our work together plus the period required for tax and legal purposes (typically six years).

Your rights

Under UK GDPR you can ask to access, correct, delete, restrict or receive a copy of your data, and object to processing. Email me and I’ll act on it. You can also complain to the ICO at ico.org.uk.
