Privacy Policy

Last updated: 4 November 2026

1. Who we are

This website, globalstratltd.com, is operated by GlobalStrat Ltd ("we", "us", "our"), a company registered in England and Wales (company number 09410408), with its registered office at 110 Nottage Crescent, Braintree, CM7 2TX. GlobalStrat provides geopolitical risk, business intelligence and security advisory services, and is led by Managing Director Olivier Guitta. If you have any questions about this policy or how we handle your data, please contact us at info@globalstratltd.com.

2. What data we collect

We collect personal data only when you choose to send it to us through the enquiry form on this website or by email. This may include:

  • Your name
  • Your organisation and role
  • Your email address and phone number
  • The type of enquiry (advisory, media or other)
  • Anything else you include in your message

We do not collect payment information through this website, and we do not knowingly collect data from children.

3. How we use your data

We use the information you send us only to respond to your enquiry. That means:

  • Advisory enquiries: to discuss your requirements and how we may be able to help
  • Media enquiries: to respond to interview, comment and appearance requests
  • Other enquiries: to reply to your message

We do not use your data for marketing, profiling or automated decision-making, and we do not run a mailing list.

4. Legal basis for processing

We process your personal data on the basis of legitimate interests (Article 6(1)(f) of the UK GDPR), namely responding to an enquiry you have chosen to make. Where an enquiry leads to an engagement, we process the data needed to take steps towards and carry out that engagement (Article 6(1)(b)).

5. Who we share your data with

We do not sell your personal data or share it with third parties for their own purposes. Your data may be processed by:

  • Squarespace, Inc., our website and form hosting provider, acting as a data processor on our behalf
  • Google, which provides the reCAPTCHA spam check on our enquiry form
  • Our team, limited to the people directly involved in responding to your enquiry

We will not share your data with anyone else unless the law requires us to.

6. Cookies and embedded content

This website is hosted on Squarespace, which sets cookies needed for the site to work and cookies for its built-in visitor analytics, which show us how the site is used. Our enquiry form uses Google reCAPTCHA to block spam, which may set cookies and collect information about your device. Some pages include videos embedded from YouTube, which may set cookies when you play them.

You can manage or block cookies through your browser settings. Blocking some cookies may affect how the site works.

7. How long we keep your data

We keep enquiry data for as long as we need it to respond to you, and for a reasonable period afterwards in case of follow-up. Where an enquiry leads to an advisory or intelligence engagement, we keep the relevant data for the length of that engagement and a reasonable period afterwards. Otherwise, we do not keep personal data for more than one year unless there is a legal reason to.

8. Your rights

Under the UK GDPR, you have the right to:

  • Access the personal data we hold about you
  • Ask us to correct inaccurate data
  • Ask us to erase your data, where there is no overriding reason to keep it
  • Object to processing based on legitimate interests
  • Ask us to restrict processing
  • Complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) at ico.org.uk

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at info@globalstratltd.com. We will respond within one month.

9. International transfers

Squarespace and Google process data in the United States. Both are certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework and its UK Extension, and maintain safeguards for international transfers.

10. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The date at the top of this page shows when it was last changed.
