Privacy notice

Last updated: 2026

This notice explains how your personal information is collected, used and protected when you use this website or submit an enquiry. Legal services referred to on this site are provided through DAV Legal Ltd.

Who we are

The data controller is DAV Legal Ltd, authorised and regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority. Enquiries are handled by Phil Lyons. You can contact us at [email protected].

What we collect

Why we use it and our legal basis

We use your information to assess your enquiry, respond to you and, if you decide to instruct us, to provide legal services. Our lawful bases are your consent (given when you submit the form), the taking of steps to enter into a contract at your request, and our legitimate interests in responding to enquiries. Where your information reveals details of alleged offences, we process it to establish, exercise or defend legal claims and to provide legal advice.

How we store and protect it

Your enquiry is transmitted over a secure (HTTPS) connection. Enquiry details and any uploaded documents are sent to our practice inbox and stored securely so that we can deal with your matter. We take appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your information and restrict access to it.

Who we share it with

We do not sell your information. We may share it where necessary to provide legal services (for example with courts, counsel or experts), with our IT and email service providers who host this site and process our email, or where we are required to by law.

How long we keep it

If you instruct us, we keep your file in line with our professional and regulatory retention obligations. If you do not instruct us, we keep enquiry information only as long as necessary and then securely delete it.

Your rights

You have the right to access the personal information we hold about you, to have it corrected or erased, to restrict or object to its processing, and to data portability, subject to legal and regulatory limits. You can withdraw consent at any time. To exercise any right, contact us at [email protected]. You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ico.org.uk).
