Privacy policy

I, Dan Beardshaw, am a registered sole trader, trading as Dan Beardshaw Editorial. I offer editorial services to businesses, organisations and individuals.

In compliance with EU General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR), this privacy policy defines what data I need to collect and store in the proceeds of providing my services and running my business.

When you first contact me, I will request the following data:
  • Your name
  • Your email address
Any details you wish to provide regarding your service requirements or project details are optional for you at this stage. 

If we agree a contract for services, I will request the following additional data:
  • Your postal address (this is required for compliance with UK invoicing regulations)
  • Your project details and files, as are necessary for me to carry out the services offered

My methods of storage of this data are as follows:
  • Email addresses and associated correspondence are stored in my password-protected online email account, and in the email client and address book on my secured notebook and desktop computers.
  • Project files are stored on the hard drive of my secured notebook and desktop computers, and backed up to password-protected cloud accounts (I use both Dropbox and Google Drive File Stream).

Duration of data storage:
  • I will store your name and address for a minimum of six years, as required for compliance with UK business regulations. 
  • Unless you request otherwise, I will keep your project files for the same duration. You can request that your project files be deleted at any point prior to this. 

Data sharing:
  • Unless audited by the UK tax authorities (HMRC), I do not share your data with anyone.
  • If you agree to provide a testimonial including your name or other data, I may publish it on this website and in my business directory listings. 
  • I do not discuss your project details with any third parties unless there is a valid reason to do so and only then with your express permission.


If you have any questions about your data that I have collected and stored, or wish any data to be removed from my systems, please contact me.
