Legal information

SME Growth Team legal and privacy information

SME Growth Team is a commercial-intelligence and lead-routing surface for UK SMEs. The site provides decision-support information, public-data checks, qualification flows and partner-routing tools.

Regulated services boundary: SME Growth Team is not a bank, lender, insolvency practitioner, tax adviser, law firm, FCA-authorised adviser, Companies House ACSP, HMRC AML supervisor or credit reference agency. Regulated work is routed to appropriately authorised partners or remains subject to separate approval and onboarding.

Use of site information

Outputs from the site, tools, AI agents, calculators and structured data are for business decision support. They are not legal, financial, tax, insolvency, credit or investment advice. Users remain responsible for checking facts and taking professional advice before acting.

Data collection, storage and retention

We collect and process business information, contact details (name, email address, phone number), IP addresses, and Companies House identifiers provided when using our tools or APIs. All data is stored in secure, encrypted cloud environments hosted within the UK and EU. We retain customer and enquiry data only for as long as necessary to fulfill commercial requests, comply with statutory tax and accounting obligations (up to 6 years), or until a user requests deletion.

Third-party sharing and processing

We do not sell personal or business data. Data is shared with third-party service providers only to the extent necessary to operate our platform (e.g. cloud database hosting, transaction email dispatch, and payment processing) or to refer qualified enquiries to authorized professional partners with the user's explicit consent. All processors are bound by strict data processing agreements under UK GDPR.

AI and public-data limitations

AI-generated summaries and public-data checks can be incomplete, delayed or wrong. They should be treated as triage signals, not final determinations. Lender matching, compliance monitoring, R&D tax-credit eligibility and credit-readiness checks require further evidence before any formal outcome is claimed.

Your rights and contact

Under UK GDPR, you have the right to access, rectify, or request erasure of your personal data, and to restrict or object to processing. For legal, privacy, correction, or data removal requests, email [email protected] or write to ATTOH LTD (company no. 14079382), trading as SME Growth Team.
