GDPR compliance badge

GDPR commitment

We design our processes to respect privacy by default. Cookie preferences are stored locally in your browser and are not shared with third parties as a form of advertising profile.

Who we are

Skill Engine (“we”, “us”) operates this website from 1043A Old Leeds Road, Bradford, West Yorkshire, BD3 7DB. For privacy questions, contact us at support@skillengine.co.uk.

What data we collect

Depending on how you use the site, we may process contact details you submit (such as name, email, company, and message content), technical data (IP address, browser type, device information), and cookie-related identifiers used to remember preferences.

How we use your data

We use personal data to respond to enquiries, provide and improve our services, secure our website, and—where you consent—understand site usage through analytics cookies.

Cookies we use

Essential cookies are required for basic site functions (for example remembering your cookie choice). Optional cookies may be used for analytics and experience improvements only after you accept. You can change your mind anytime by clearing site data in your browser and revisiting the site.

Legal bases (GDPR)

Where GDPR applies, we process data based on: (1) your consent (optional cookies and certain marketing communications), (2) performance of a contract or pre-contractual steps (responding to project enquiries), and (3) legitimate interests (securing and improving our website), balanced against your rights.

Your rights

You may have rights to access, rectify, erase, restrict, or object to processing of your personal data, and to withdraw consent. To exercise these rights, email us at the address above. You may also lodge a complaint with your local supervisory authority.

Data retention & security

We keep personal data only as long as needed for the purposes described, or as required by law. We apply appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect information against unauthorised access, loss, or misuse.

Third parties & international transfers

We may use trusted providers (hosting, email, analytics) who process data on our behalf under appropriate agreements. If data is transferred outside the UK/EEA, we use suitable safeguards such as standard contractual clauses where required.
