This Privacy Policy explains how BITSLEGAL LTD ("BITS LEGAL", "we", "us") handles personal information in connection with the website bits.legal and any correspondence you send to us.
It is intended to be clear and transparent, in line with the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018. We may update this policy from time to time; the "Last updated" date will show the latest version.
Last updated: 3 February 2026
1. Who we are
BITSLEGAL LTD (Company No. 16805682) operates the website bits.legal. For the purposes of this Privacy Policy, we are the "controller" of the personal information described here.
Registered office: 128 City Road, London, EC1V 2NX, United Kingdom

2. The site does not collect personal data
bits.legal is a static informational website. It is designed not to collect personal information about visitors. In particular:
- We do not use analytics services (such as Google Analytics).
- We do not use cookies, tracking pixels, or similar technologies.
- We do not operate contact forms, newsletter sign-ups, or account areas.
- We do not embed third-party trackers, social media widgets, or advertising scripts.
You can browse the site without providing any information about yourself.
3. Server logs
Like virtually all websites, bits.legal is served by a hosting provider that maintains standard server logs for security, abuse prevention, and operational reliability. These logs may include limited technical information such as IP address, the page requested, timestamps, and user-agent (browser/device) strings.
We do not use server logs to profile visitors or analyse browsing behaviour. Logs are retained by the hosting provider for a short period in line with its standard practices.
Legal basis: our legitimate interests in keeping the site secure and operational (UK GDPR, Article 6(1)(f)).
4. If you email us
If you contact us by email (for example, via the address linked on the Contact page), we will receive the information you choose to send — typically your name, email address, and the content of your message.
We use this information solely to read and respond to your message. We do not add email addresses to marketing lists, and we do not share them with third parties for marketing purposes.
Email correspondence is handled through standard business email services. Please do not send confidential or sensitive information by email unless and until terms of engagement have been agreed in writing.
Legal basis: our legitimate interests in handling enquiries and correspondence (UK GDPR, Article 6(1)(f)); and, where applicable, taking steps at your request prior to entering into a contract (Article 6(1)(b)).
5. Retention
Email correspondence is kept only for as long as is reasonably necessary to handle the matter you have raised and to comply with any legal or professional obligations that apply to it. Routine enquiries that do not lead to engagement are deleted in due course.
6. Sharing
We do not sell personal information and we do not share it for marketing.
We may disclose information where required by law, by a competent authority, or by a professional regulator; or where necessary to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims.
7. International transfers
Hosting and email infrastructure may be operated by providers based outside the United Kingdom. Where any transfer of personal information outside the UK takes place, we rely on the safeguards provided by those providers (for example, UK adequacy regulations or the International Data Transfer Addendum to the EU Standard Contractual Clauses), as applicable.
8. Your rights
Subject to applicable law, you have the right to:
- request access to personal information we hold about you;
- request correction of inaccurate or incomplete information;
- request erasure in certain circumstances;
- request restriction of processing in certain circumstances;
- object to processing carried out on the basis of legitimate interests; and
- lodge a complaint with the UK Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) at ico.org.uk.
To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the details below. We may need to verify your identity before responding.
