This notice explains what happens to the information you give us when you ask for a briefing through this site. It is written to be read, not to be survived.
Version 1.0 · 15 September 2026
Ronald Dunnett, Limited, trading as The Suffrage Group, is the data controller for the information described in this notice. That means we decide what is collected and what happens to it.

We have not appointed a Data Protection Officer. We are not required to have one, and the contact address above reaches the people who make these decisions.
We do not store your IP address. Our hosting provider derives the country and city from it in transit, and we keep only that coarse location — not the address itself.
The briefing form carries a check from Cloudflare Turnstile that distinguishes a person from an automated script. To do that, Cloudflare receives your IP address, your browser's user-agent string, its TLS fingerprint, and the identifier of our form. Cloudflare states that these signals are used only to detect bots, and not for advertising or to track you across websites.
We do not receive your IP address ourselves and we cannot see it. Without this check the form would be used to send mail to people who never asked for it, which is why it is here. The other third party that sees your IP address is Google, because of the typefaces — that is described in section 5.
One item, in your browser's local storage: whether you chose the light or dark version of this site. It never leaves your browser, we cannot read it, and clearing your browser data removes it.
The anti-bot check may place its own short-lived item in your browser while it runs. We set no cookies of our own, run no analytics, and use no tracking or advertising technology of any kind.
This matters more here than on most websites, so it gets its own section.
If you tell us which office you are seeking, which campaign you represent, or what your campaign needs, you are almost certainly revealing your political opinions. Under the UK GDPR that is special category data — a protected class that also covers health, religion and ethnicity — and it cannot be processed simply because it would be useful to us.
Registered political parties have a condition available to them for this. We are not a political party, we are a company that sells campaign services, so that route is not open to us. The condition we rely on instead is your explicit consent under Article 9(2)(a).
That is why the briefing form asks you to tick a box confirming you are content for us to process information revealing your political opinions in order to prepare and arrange your briefing. It is a real consent, not a formality.
You can withdraw it at any time by emailing [email protected]. If you do, we will delete what you sent us. Withdrawing does not affect anything we did lawfully before you withdrew.
| What we do | Lawful basis |
|---|---|
| Reply to your enquiry and arrange a briefing | Article 6(1)(b) — steps taken at your request before entering into a contract |
| Process what you tell us about your campaign and politics | Article 9(2)(a) — your explicit consent (see section 3) |
| Keep a record of enquiries and protect the form from abuse | Article 6(1)(f) — our legitimate interest in running the business and keeping the form working |
| Run the anti-bot check when you submit the form | Article 6(1)(f) — our legitimate interest in preventing our form being used to send mail to people who did not ask for it |
We do not use your information to make any automated decision about you, and we do not profile you. A person reads every enquiry.
We will not send you marketing unless you ask us to. Replying to your enquiry is not marketing.
We use these companies to run the form and deliver the mail. They act on our instructions and may not use your information for their own purposes.
| Who | What they do | Where |
|---|---|---|
| Cloudflare | Hosts this site and processes the form submission | Global network, US company |
| Cloudflare Turnstile | Checks that the form is being submitted by a person; receives your IP address and browser details | Global network, US company |
| Brevo | Delivers the enquiry to us by email | EU (French company) |
| IONOS | Runs the suffrage.ai email address and forwards it to us | United States |
| Google, Apple | The mailboxes we actually read your enquiry in | United States |
Your enquiry is never stored in a database. It exists as an email and nowhere else. There is no CRM, no marketing list, and no copy kept by the form itself.
This site loads its typefaces from Google Fonts. That means your browser makes a request to Google when the page loads, and Google receives your IP address as part of it. We get nothing from this and it is not tracking, but it is a third party receiving data about you, and you are entitled to know. We are working to serve the fonts ourselves so that this stops.
We do not sell your information, we do not share it with any political party, and we do not pass it to the supplier of the platform behind our service. If you become a client, we will tell you separately and in writing what is shared and with whom before anything moves.
Some of the companies above are in the United States. Where your information goes outside the UK, we rely on the UK International Data Transfer Addendum, the UK Extension to the EU-US Data Privacy Framework, or the UK's adequacy regulations, depending on the provider. You can ask us which applies to a particular provider and we will tell you.
Twelve months from our last contact with you, if you do not become a client. That covers a full election cycle and any follow-up conversation, and then it goes.
If you do become a client, your information is kept under the terms of our engagement letter, which will set out its own retention period.
You do not have to wait twelve months. Ask us to delete it sooner and we will.
Under the UK GDPR you have the right to:
Email [email protected] and say what you want. We will not ask you why. There is no charge, and we will respond within one month.
If you are unhappy with how we have handled your information, tell us first — email [email protected] with "Data protection complaint" in the subject line.
We will acknowledge your complaint within 30 days and respond in full without undue delay. That commitment is a requirement of the Data (Use and Access) Act 2025, and we are stating it here so you can hold us to it.
You can also complain directly to the Information Commissioner's Office at any time, whether or not you have come to us first:
Information Commissioner's Office
Wycliffe House, Water Lane, Wilmslow, Cheshire SK9 5AF
Helpline: 0303 123 1113 · ico.org.uk/make-a-complaint
If we change how we handle your information we will update this page and change the version and date at the top. Where a change materially affects people who have already contacted us, we will email them rather than rely on them noticing.
