Information We Collect

Personal Information You Provide

Information We Collect Automatically

When you visit our website, we automatically collect certain technical information to improve your experience. This includes your IP address, browser type, device information, and pages you visit. We use cookies and similar technologies to remember your preferences and analyze how our platform is used.

How We Use Your Information

We process your personal data for several specific purposes, each with a lawful basis under UK GDPR. Your financial data is only used to provide the budget analysis services you've requested — we never use it for marketing or share it with third parties for their commercial purposes.

Your Privacy Rights

Under UK data protection law, you have several important rights regarding your personal information. You can exercise these rights at any time by contacting us using the details below.

To exercise any of these rights, simply email us at info@melioraevos.com with your request. We'll respond within one month and won't charge you unless your request is clearly unfounded or excessive. If you're not satisfied with how we handle your request, you have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office.

Data Security and Storage

We take data security seriously and use industry-standard measures to protect your information. All data is encrypted in transit and at rest, and we regularly review our security practices. Our systems are hosted in secure UK data centres that comply with relevant standards.

Security Measures

We retain your personal data only for as long as necessary to provide our services or as required by law. When data is no longer needed, it's securely deleted using industry-standard methods. Financial data is typically retained for seven years in accordance with accounting and tax requirements.

Sharing Your Information

We don't sell or rent your personal information to anyone. However, there are limited circumstances where we may share your data with trusted third parties who help us provide our services.

When We May Share Data

All third-party service providers we work with are carefully vetted and must meet our strict data protection standards. They're only allowed to process your data for the specific purposes we've outlined and cannot use it for their own purposes.
