Privacy Policy
1. Introduction
We are committed to safeguarding the privacy and accuracy of the personal data of our website visitors, service users, and email recipients.
This policy applies where we act as a Data Controller, meaning we determine the purpose and means of processing personal data.
In this policy, “We”, “Us” and “Our” refer to OpenSource (OpenSource Group Limited). “You” refers to the Data Subject, a natural person whose data is processed.
2. How We Use Your Personal Data

- Usage Data

We only process your data if legally permitted, either through consent, contract, legal obligation, or legitimate interest.
3. Sharing Your Personal Data
We may share your data with:
- Subsidiaries or affiliated companies
- Insurers and professional advisers
- Legal authorities when required
- Third parties under lawful basis
We never sell your data or use it for purposes beyond what’s stated here.
4. International Transfers
We rely on a small number of trusted service providers to run this website and handle enquiries, and some of them process data outside the UK and EEA (in the United States):
- Vercel (website hosting and privacy-friendly, cookieless analytics)
- Resend (delivery of the emails generated when you submit a form)
Where personal data is transferred outside the UK and EEA, we rely on appropriate safeguards, such as the relevant standard contractual clauses and the data-processing agreements we hold with these providers.
Note: If you submit data publicly, we cannot control its global visibility or misuse by others.
5. Data Retention & Deletion
We keep your personal data only as long as necessary. Data may be retained for legal or contractual reasons, or if vital interests apply.
6. Cookies
This website uses privacy-friendly, cookieless analytics (Vercel Analytics) to understand aggregate traffic. It does not set advertising or tracking cookies, and uses no non-essential cookies, so there is nothing for you to consent to or opt out of. If this ever changes, we will update this policy and add a cookie notice.
