We may collect: • identification and contact details (name, role, organisation, email, phone, country/region); • professional profile data (sector, key expertise, languages, partnership interests, website, LinkedIn, London Hub status); • application and nomination data (membership, award, partnership, event participation, notes and attachments); • technical data (IP address, browser, device, pages viewed, time of access, cookies and similar technologies).

We may verify professional information from public business sources (company websites, LinkedIn, directories) where relevant to membership, award or partnership review.

3. How We Use Personal Data

We use personal data to: • respond to enquiries; • review and process membership, award and partnership applications; • assess professional profile and relevance to the London Hub community; • administer participation in events, forums and ceremonies; • create and maintain member and leader profiles, where agreed; • share information about London Hub activities and opportunities, where permitted or consented to; • operate, secure and improve our website and services; • meet legal and regulatory obligations.

4. Legal Bases

Depending on the context, we rely on: • Consent – for informational materials, certain communications and non-essential cookies; • Legitimate interests – to operate London Hub, review applications, manage relationships and develop our network, where your rights are not overridden; • Contract / pre-contract steps – where you request participation, membership, partnership or award consideration; • Legal obligation – where we must retain or disclose data under applicable law.

5. Directory Profiles and Visibility

If you submit or approve a profile for the London Hub directory (Business and Trust Leaders, members, laureates, ambassadors), we may display business information such as your name, title, organisation, countries of presence, expertise, partnership interests, website, LinkedIn profile, London Hub status and business contact details.

Please provide only information you are authorised to share and that you are comfortable being visible within the London Hub environment.

6. Award, Membership and Partnership Review

For award nominations, membership applications and partnership proposals, we may review your information to evaluate eligibility, leadership profile, reputation, international relevance and alignment with London Hub.

Please do not submit unnecessary sensitive personal data unless specifically requested and clearly appropriate.

7. Informational Materials

With your consent, we may send informational materials about London Hub (updates, invitations, membership and partnership news). You can withdraw consent or unsubscribe at any time via the link in our messages or by contacting us.

8. Cookies

We may use cookies and similar technologies to ensure functionality, improve performance and understand website usage. Where required, we will ask for your consent before using non-essential cookies (such as analytics).

More details are provided in our Cookie Policy.

9. Sharing and International Transfers

We do not sell personal data.

We may share data with trusted service providers (hosting, IT, security, analytics, communications, event support), professional advisers and, where required, regulators or authorities, only as needed and subject to appropriate safeguards.

Because London Hub operates internationally, data may be transferred to or accessed from countries outside your country of residence. Where required, we use suitable legal mechanisms to protect such transfers.

10. Data Retention

We keep personal data only as long as necessary for the purposes described in this Policy, including administration, communication, record-keeping, compliance and management of London Hub activities. Retention periods vary by data type and context, but information is not held longer than needed.

11. Security

We apply reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against unauthorised access, loss, misuse or disclosure. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and absolute security cannot be guaranteed.

12. Your Rights

Subject to applicable law, you may have the right to: • access your personal data; • request correction of inaccurate data; • request erasure or restriction of processing; • object to processing based on legitimate interests; • request data portability, where applicable; • withdraw consent, where processing is based on consent; • lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority.

To exercise these rights, please contact us at hello@londonhub.org. If UK data protection law applies and you are not satisfied with our response, you may contact the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) via ico.org.uk.

13. Third-Party Links

Our website may contain links to third-party websites (for example, LinkedIn, member or partner sites). We are not responsible for their content or privacy practices and encourage you to review their own privacy notices.
