Business Contacts Privacy Notice
Version 1.0 · Published 9 November 2026
This notice is for people whose work contact details we hold because their business might be interested in WagePerks. If we have emailed you about WagePerks and you never gave us your details, this explains where we got them and what you can do about it. It sits alongside our main Privacy Policy.
Want us to stop? Reply "no thanks" to any email from us, or email privacy@wageperks.com. We will stop, and we won't contact you again. You don't have to give a reason.
Who we are
Wageperks Ltd ("WagePerks", "we"), a company registered in Scotland (company number SC824820). Registered office: 8 Fairways Business Park, Deer Park Avenue, Livingston, EH54 8AF.
We are the controller of the personal data described here. Questions or requests go to privacy@wageperks.com. We are a small company and have not appointed a Data Protection Officer; that address reaches the person responsible for data protection.
What we hold
Most of what we hold is about businesses, not people: company name, registered number, address, industry and website. Where it identifies a person, it is limited to:
- your name and job title, where your business publishes them
- your work email address and work phone number, where published
- the business you work for
- a record of any contact we have had with you, and whether you have asked us to stop
We do not hold home addresses, personal phone numbers, or any sensitive information about you.
Where we got it
We did not get it from you. It comes from publicly available sources:
- Companies House, the public register of UK companies
- Open business listings published by the Overture Maps Foundation
- Your business's own website, where it publishes a contact address
- Published business directories
We do not buy mailing lists, and we do not take data from behind a login or from any source whose terms forbid it.
Why we use it, and our lawful basis
We use it to work out whether a business is likely to want WagePerks, and to contact that business about it, usually once or twice by email.
Our lawful basis is legitimate interests (UK GDPR Article 6(1)(f)). We have an interest in telling businesses about a product that is relevant to them. We have weighed that interest against yours and keep the impact low:
- we only use work details your business has made public
- we contact a business a small number of times
- every message tells you how to stop
- we stop as soon as you ask
Our written assessment of this balance is available on request.
We follow the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations. We email only corporate subscribers (limited companies, LLPs and similar), and never sole traders, or partnerships outside Scotland, without their consent. Every message carries a way to opt out.
We do not make decisions about you by automated means that have a legal or similarly significant effect. We use simple rules, such as the type and size of a business, only to decide which businesses might be interested.
Who we share it with
We do not sell or rent your details, or share them with anyone for their own marketing.
The following can see your details, only as needed:
- our service providers, who host our systems and deliver our email on our behalf, under contract
- our professional advisers, if we need them
- authorities, if the law requires it
Where it is held
Our prospect database is held on our own servers in the United Kingdom. Email is sent through providers in the UK, the European Economic Area or Switzerland, which the UK recognises as giving adequate protection. If we ever use a provider elsewhere, we will put appropriate safeguards in place first, such as the UK International Data Transfer Agreement.
How long we keep it
We keep business contact details for 24 months from when we obtained them or from our last contact with the business, whichever is later. After that we delete them.
If you ask us to stop, we keep the minimum needed to make sure you are not contacted again: your email address, the business and the date. If you ask us to delete your details instead, we keep only a one-way code (a "hash") of your email address. That is enough to stop us collecting it again, and not enough to contact you.
Your rights
You have an absolute right to object to direct marketing. If you tell us to stop, we must stop: there is no balancing test and no exception. We will stop contacting you and, unless you tell us otherwise, anyone else at your business, so a colleague isn't contacted instead.
You also have the right to:
- ask us for a copy of the details we hold about you
- have inaccurate details corrected
- have your details deleted
- ask us to restrict how we use them
- object to our use of them for any other purpose
Email privacy@wageperks.com. We will respond within one month.
If you are unhappy with how we have handled your details, please tell us first. You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk or on 0303 123 1113.
Changes to this notice
If we change how we use business contact details, we will update this notice and its version number. Previous versions are available on request.
