Who we are
BusinessInterruptionExpert.com is operated as a referral and information service connecting attorneys and insurers with independent expert witnesses. The data controller for website analytics and enquiry forms is the site operator identified on your engagement correspondence.
Data we collect
When you submit a contact form, we process the fields you provide (typically name, email, organisation, telephone, and your case summary) to assess suitability for introduction to experts. Technical logs (IP address, user agent, timestamps) may be processed by our hosting and security providers for fraud prevention.
Lawful bases (UK GDPR)
We rely on legitimate interests to respond to professional enquiries and arrange introductions where appropriate. Non-essential cookies and advertising tags load only after you make a choice in our Cookie Policy banner; you can reopen preferences anytime via Cookie settings in the site footer.
Cookies and similar technologies
We use cookies and local storage to remember your privacy choices, protect the site, and - if you consent - measure traffic or run professional marketing pixels. See the full breakdown, retention, and third-party list in our Cookie Policy.
Retention
Enquiry records are retained only as long as needed to manage introductions, conflicts checks, and regulatory obligations, then deleted or anonymised in line with internal policy unless a longer period is required by law.
International transfers
If form delivery or hosting involves processors outside the UK/EEA, we use appropriate safeguards such as UK International Data Transfer Agreements / EU Standard Contractual Clauses as applicable.
Your rights
You may request access, rectification, erasure, restriction, objection, or data portability where applicable by contacting us at info@businessinterruptionexpert.com. You may also complain to the ICO (UK) if you believe processing infringes the UK GDPR.
