Privacy Policy

Introduction

At Paragon, we respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal data. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and protect information when you visit our website or engage with our services.

Who we are

Paragon is a creative design and digital studio providing branding, web design, development, and related digital services. If you have any questions about this policy or how your data is handled, you can contact us at [your email address].

Information we collect

When you interact with Paragon, we may collect personal information that you choose to provide — such as your name, email address, company name, and any project details submitted through contact forms or direct communication. We may also collect information automatically when you visit our website — including your IP address, browser type, device information, pages visited, and how you navigate the site — to help us understand usage patterns and improve the overall experience.

How we use your information

The information we collect is used to respond to enquiries, communicate with you about projects or services, deliver and improve our offerings, maintain website performance and security, and analyse how visitors interact with our content. We only process personal data where it is relevant and necessary for these purposes.

Legal basis for processing

Under UK data protection law, we process personal data based on your consent when you submit information to us, our legitimate interests in operating and improving our website and services, and where required, to fulfil contractual obligations related to the work we provide.

Cookies

Our website may use cookies and similar technologies to ensure proper functionality and to analyse performance. You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings, although some parts of the website may not function correctly if cookies are disabled. Where applicable, additional information may be provided in a separate Cookie Policy.

Data sharing

Paragon does not sell, rent, or trade personal data. We may share information with trusted third-party service providers — such as hosting, analytics, or form processing services — where necessary to operate our website and deliver our services, and only where appropriate safeguards are in place.

Data security

We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal data from loss, misuse, unauthorised access, or disclosure. While no digital system can be guaranteed to be completely secure, we are committed to handling your information responsibly and with care.

Data retention

Personal data is retained only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes outlined in this policy or to meet legal, contractual, or accounting obligations. When personal data is no longer required, it is securely deleted or anonymised.

Your rights

You have rights under UK GDPR, including the right to access the personal data we hold about you, request corrections, request deletion, object to or restrict processing, and withdraw consent at any time. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner’s Office if you believe your data has been handled improperly, and you may exercise any of these rights by contacting us directly.

Third-party links

Our website may include links to third-party websites. Paragon is not responsible for the privacy practices or content of external sites, and we encourage you to review their privacy policies independently.

Policy changes

This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time to reflect changes in legal requirements, technology, or our business practices. This privacy policy was last updated on 20 September 2025.
