Privacy Policy

Last updated: 11 May 2026

1. About this Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how Exchange Ventures Ltd collects, uses and protects personal information submitted through this website.

Exchange Ventures Ltd is a company registered in England and Wales under company number 17180513.

For any questions about this Privacy Policy or how your data is handled, contact us at: contact@exchangeventures.co.uk

The ICO says privacy information should explain what data is collected, why it is used, how long it is kept, who it is shared with, and the rights individuals have over their data.


2. Information we collect

At this stage, we only collect information that you choose to submit through our website forms, including our contact form or "Submit an Opportunity" call-to-action.

This may include:

  • Your name
  • Email address
  • Phone number
  • Company name
  • Company website
  • Job title or role
  • Information about your business, product, service or opportunity
  • Revenue, traction, funding or commercial information you choose to provide
  • Any other information you voluntarily submit through the website

We do not currently use website analytics, tracking pixels or marketing cookies.


3. How we use your information

We use the information you submit to:

  • Respond to your enquiry
  • Review submitted opportunities
  • Understand your business, project or proposal
  • Decide whether there may be a suitable commercial relationship
  • Arrange calls or follow-up conversations
  • Manage potential client, partner or opportunity relationships
  • Keep internal records relating to enquiries and submissions
  • Comply with legal, accounting or administrative obligations

We do not sell your personal information.


4. Our lawful basis for using your information

Under UK data protection law, we must have a lawful basis for using your personal data.

Depending on the situation, we may rely on:

Legitimate interests

This applies where we use your information to respond to enquiries, assess opportunities, manage business relationships and operate Exchange Ventures in a commercially reasonable way.

Contract or steps before entering into a contract

This applies where you contact us about working together, becoming a client, partner or supplier, or entering into a commercial engagement.

Legal obligation

This applies where we need to keep records for legal, tax, accounting or compliance purposes.

Consent

This applies where we specifically ask for your consent, for example for certain forms of marketing communication in the future.


5. Who we may share your information with

We may share your information where reasonably necessary with:

  • Members of the Exchange Ventures leadership team
  • Project-based operators, contractors or partners working with Exchange Ventures
  • Professional advisers, including accountants, solicitors or consultants
  • Technology providers used to operate the website, email systems, forms, documents or internal business tools
  • Potential investors, lenders, strategic partners or service providers, but only where relevant to the opportunity or enquiry you have submitted
  • Regulators, authorities or legal parties where required by law

Where we share information with third parties, we will only do so where there is a legitimate business reason, legal requirement or relevant connection to your enquiry or opportunity.


6. Opportunity submissions

If you submit an opportunity, business proposal, company information, funding request or commercial enquiry through the website, you acknowledge that Exchange Ventures may review that information internally to assess whether there is a potential fit.

Submitting information through the website does not create a client relationship, advisory relationship, investment relationship, partnership or obligation for Exchange Ventures to act.

Any formal engagement with Exchange Ventures will be subject to separate written terms.


7. How long we keep your information

We will only keep your information for as long as reasonably necessary.

In most cases, enquiry and opportunity submission data may be kept for internal business records, relationship management, follow-up and legitimate commercial purposes.

If we enter into a formal engagement with you, we may keep relevant records for longer to comply with legal, tax, accounting and contractual obligations.

You can ask us to delete your personal information by contacting contact@exchangeventures.co.uk.

There may be situations where we need to retain certain information for legal, accounting or legitimate business reasons.


8. International sharing

Exchange Ventures may work with partners, operators, contractors, software providers or service providers based outside the United Kingdom.

Where personal data is transferred internationally, we will take reasonable steps to ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place.


9. Cookies and analytics

At this stage, our website does not use analytics cookies, tracking pixels or marketing cookies.

If we introduce analytics, retargeting, marketing pixels or non-essential cookies in the future, we will update this Privacy Policy and, where required, introduce a cookie notice or consent mechanism.


10. Your rights

Under UK data protection law, you may have the right to:

  • Access the personal data we hold about you
  • Ask us to correct inaccurate information
  • Ask us to delete your information
  • Object to certain uses of your information
  • Ask us to restrict how we use your information
  • Withdraw consent where we rely on consent
  • Complain to the Information Commissioner's Office

The ICO is the UK regulator responsible for data protection and information rights.

To exercise your rights, contact: contact@exchangeventures.co.uk


11. Security

We take reasonable steps to protect personal information submitted through the website.

However, no website, email system or online transmission is completely secure. You should avoid submitting highly sensitive information unless necessary.


12. Changes to this Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time as Exchange Ventures develops, our website changes, or our legal obligations evolve.

The latest version will always be available on this page.
