Privacy Policy
When you get in touch with Found, you're trusting us with a little bit of your information. We don't take that lightly. This policy explains what we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have — in plain English, section by section.
Your Privacy Matters
When you get in touch with Found, you're trusting us with a little bit of your information. We don't take that lightly.
Whether you're asking a question, requesting a quote, or working with us on your website or marketing, we'll always do our best to look after your information with care, respect, and common sense.
The short version?
- We only collect the information we need.
- We never sell your personal information.
- We use trusted systems to help keep your data secure.
- If you'd ever like to know what information we hold about you, just ask.
What Information Do We Collect?
Depending on how you interact with us, we may collect information such as:
- Your name
- Business name
- Email address
- Phone number
- Website address
- Any information you choose to include when contacting us
Like most modern websites, we may also collect some technical information automatically, such as:
- Your IP address
- Browser type
- Device information
- Pages visited on our website
- General website usage information
This helps us understand what's working, what isn't, and how we can improve your experience.
Why Do We Collect It?
Simply put, we collect information so we can do our job.
This may include:
- Responding to your enquiries
- Providing the services you've requested
- Preparing quotes or proposals

We won't send endless emails, and if you no longer want to hear from us, you can unsubscribe at any time.
Keeping Your Information Safe
We take security seriously.
We use reputable systems and reasonable security measures to help protect the information we hold.
While no online system can ever guarantee absolute security, we're committed to following good practices to keep your information as safe as reasonably possible.
How Long Do We Keep Your Information?
We only keep personal information for as long as we need it to provide our services, meet our legal obligations, or support our business operations.
When information is no longer required, we'll securely delete or anonymise it where appropriate.

- Ask what personal information we hold about you.

Technology changes, businesses grow, and privacy laws occasionally evolve too.
If we make important changes to this Privacy Policy, we'll update this page so you always have access to the latest version.
Questions?
If anything in this Privacy Policy doesn't make sense—or you'd simply like to know how we handle your information—we'd love to hear from you.

After all, that's kind of what we're known for.
