from service providers that support the operation and security of the Website.
We do not purchase personal information from data brokers.

communicating with prospective and existing clients;
providing information about our services;
preparing quotations and commercial proposals;
taking steps at your request before entering into a contract;
entering into and performing contracts;
managing client and business relationships;
providing consulting, certification, advisory, and related services;
maintaining the functionality and security of the Website;
preventing spam, fraud, abuse, and unauthorised activity;
protecting our legal rights and business interests;
complying with applicable legal, regulatory, accounting, and tax obligations;
establishing, exercising, or defending legal claims.
We do not use contact-form information for unrelated advertising purposes without an appropriate legal basis.
5. Legal Bases for Processing
Where the GDPR, UK GDPR, or similar data protection legislation applies, we process personal information on one or more of the following legal bases:
5.1 Steps before entering into a contract
We may process your information when you ask us to provide a quotation, discuss a project, prepare a proposal, or take other steps before entering into a contract.
5.2 Performance of a contract
We may process information where it is necessary to enter into or perform a contract with you.
5.3 Legitimate interests
We may process information where it is necessary for our legitimate business interests, including:
responding to business enquiries;
managing client relationships;
operating and securing the Website;
preventing abuse and fraud;
improving business processes;
protecting our legal rights.
We consider whether these interests are overridden by your rights and freedoms before relying on this basis.
5.4 Legal obligations
We may process information where necessary to comply with accounting, taxation, regulatory, judicial, or other legal obligations.
5.5 Consent
Where required, we may ask for your consent for a specific purpose. You may withdraw your consent at any time, although withdrawal does not affect processing already carried out lawfully before the withdrawal.
Legitimate interests may be used only after identifying the interest, establishing that the processing is necessary, and balancing it against the individual’s rights.
6. Contact Forms
The Website contains a contact form through which you may provide:
your name;
email address;
telephone number;
message.
The information is used to review your enquiry, contact you, discuss your requirements, and potentially establish a business relationship.
Submitting the form does not automatically create a contractual relationship.
You are responsible for ensuring that the information you provide is accurate and that you have the authority to provide any personal information relating to another person.
7. Cookies and Similar Technologies
The Website uses only cookies and similar technologies that are necessary for:
loading and displaying Website pages;
maintaining Website functionality;
processing contact forms;
protecting forms against spam and automated submissions;
maintaining security;
managing technical preferences.
We do not currently use:
Google Analytics;
Yandex Metrica;
advertising pixels;
behavioural advertising cookies;
cross-site tracking technologies;
personalised advertising tools.
Strictly necessary cookies cannot always be disabled through the Website because they are required for core functionality. You may nevertheless control or delete cookies using your browser settings, although doing so may affect certain Website functions.
If analytics, advertising, or other non-essential cookies are introduced in the future, this Policy and the Website’s consent mechanism should be updated before those technologies are activated.
Privacy information concerning cookies should be clear, accessible, and transparent.
8. Service Providers and Recipients
We may share personal information with service providers where necessary to operate the Website and respond to enquiries.
These may include:
website hosting and website infrastructure providers;
Webflow and its subprocessors;
cloud hosting and content-delivery providers;
form-processing and anti-spam providers;
email service providers;
IT support and security providers;
professional advisers, including legal and accounting advisers;
public authorities where disclosure is required by law.
These providers are permitted to process personal information only as necessary to provide their services or comply with applicable legal requirements.
Webflow requires Website operators to maintain a privacy policy accurately explaining what information is collected and how it is used and shared with Webflow and other third parties.
9. Webflow Hosting and Form Processing
The Website is built and hosted using Webflow.
When you visit the Website or submit a form, Webflow and its authorised subprocessors may process technical data and form-submission information on our behalf.
Webflow states that customer and end-user information may be stored in the United States and processed by service providers located in the United States and other countries.
Webflow maintains a Data Processing Addendum and publishes information about its subprocessors and international transfer mechanisms.
10. International Data Transfers
Because we use international technology and communication providers, your personal information may be processed in countries other than the country in which you reside.
These countries may have data protection laws that differ from those in your jurisdiction.
Where European or UK data protection law applies, we seek to rely on appropriate safeguards for international transfers, which may include:
adequacy decisions;
Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the European Commission;
the UK International Data Transfer Addendum or other approved UK safeguards;
contractual, organisational, and technical security measures;
another lawful transfer mechanism permitted by applicable law.
You may contact us for further information about the safeguards relevant to your personal information.
11. Data Retention
We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Policy.
As a general rule:
enquiries that do not result in a contract may be retained for up to three years after the last communication;
client and contractual information may be retained for the duration of the business relationship and afterwards for the period necessary to comply with legal, accounting, tax, and limitation requirements;
technical and security logs may be retained for shorter periods appropriate to their purpose;
information connected with legal claims may be retained until the relevant claim or limitation period has expired.
We may delete or anonymise information earlier where it is no longer required.
Retention periods may be extended where necessary to comply with law, respond to a dispute, or establish, exercise, or defend legal claims.
12. Data Security
We take reasonable organisational and technical measures designed to protect personal information against:
unauthorised access;
accidental loss;
unlawful disclosure;
alteration;
destruction;
misuse.
Measures may include:
restricted access to submitted information;
password and account-access controls;
encrypted data transmission;
secure hosting infrastructure;
software updates;
anti-spam and security controls;
access monitoring;
deletion of information that is no longer required.
No method of internet transmission or electronic storage is completely secure. We therefore cannot guarantee absolute security.
13. Your Privacy Rights
Depending on your location and the applicable law, you may have the right to:
obtain confirmation that we process your personal information;
request access to your personal information;
request correction of inaccurate or incomplete information;
request deletion of your information;
request restriction of processing;
object to processing based on legitimate interests;
withdraw consent where processing is based on consent;
receive certain information in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format;
request transfer of eligible information to another controller;
lodge a complaint with a competent supervisory authority;
object to certain direct-marketing activities;
receive information about international data transfers.
These rights are not absolute. A request may be limited where an exemption applies or where continued processing is required by law.
GDPR and UK GDPR privacy notices should explain the individual’s rights, retention periods, recipients, purposes, and right to complain.
14. Exercising Your Rights
To exercise a privacy right, contact:
greenprinciples@yahoo.com
Suggested subject line:
Privacy Request
Please include:
your full name;
the email address or telephone number associated with your enquiry;
a clear description of your request;
any information reasonably required to identify the relevant records.
We may ask for additional information to verify your identity and prevent the disclosure of personal information to an unauthorised person.
We will respond within the period required by applicable law.
15. Complaints
Please contact us first if you have concerns about how your information is handled.
You may also have the right to submit a complaint to the data protection authority in the country or region where you live, work, or believe that a violation occurred.
For example:
individuals in the European Economic Area may contact the competent national data protection authority;
individuals in the United Kingdom may contact the Information Commissioner’s Office;
individuals in Switzerland may contact the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner.
16. California Residents
If you are a California resident, California privacy laws may provide additional rights, depending on whether those laws apply to our activities.
These may include the right to request:
information about the categories and specific pieces of personal information collected;
correction of inaccurate information;
deletion of eligible information;
information about categories of recipients;
an opt-out from the sale or sharing of personal information;
equal treatment when exercising privacy rights.
We do not sell personal information for monetary consideration and do not use personal information for cross-context behavioural advertising.
The California Consumer Privacy Act applies only to businesses that meet its statutory applicability criteria. If those criteria become applicable to Green Principles, this section should be expanded into a complete California notice at collection and privacy-policy disclosure. California law also requires a “Do Not Sell or Share” mechanism where an applicable business sells or shares consumer information.
17. Children’s Privacy
The Website and services are intended for business and professional audiences and are not directed to children.
We do not knowingly collect personal information from children through the Website.
If you believe that a child has submitted personal information without appropriate authorisation, please contact us so that we can review and delete it where appropriate.
18. Automated Decision-Making
We do not use information submitted through the Website to make decisions based solely on automated processing that produce legal or similarly significant effects.
We do not create behavioural profiles for advertising purposes.
19. Third-Party Links
The Website may contain links to third-party websites or services, including Telegram.
We do not control the privacy practices of third parties. When you follow an external link, the third party’s own privacy policy and terms apply.
You should review those documents before providing personal information.
20. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy when:
our services or Website change;
we begin using new service providers;
the categories or purposes of processing change;
applicable legal requirements change;
new cookies or technologies are introduced.
