Last Updated: 3 June 2025.
ULN Group's Privacy Policy outlines how ULN Group processes personal data.

legal
obligations in the Data
Protection Act
2018.
1. Our Privacy Statement
The following privacy policy covers how ULN Group (“we”, “us”, “our”) collect, use, disclose and safeguard your personal data when you:

Please read this policy carefully. By using our services or website, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.
We firmly believe that everybody has a right to privacy and that all data which can identify you (even partly), regardless of where or how it was obtained, should be treated as “personal data”. We take the privacy of all our users seriously, which is why we go beyond what law requires us to protect.
We are not responsible for how third-parties linked on our site handle your data, but we do require authorised third parties to handle your data in accordance with our values. We strongly recommend reading the privacy policies of any third parties you interact with.
