6. Our lawful bases for using your information
Under UK data protection law, we need a lawful basis for processing personal information.
Depending on the circumstances, we may rely on:
Contract: Where processing your information is necessary to arrange or provide driving lessons or otherwise fulfil an agreement with you.
Legitimate interests: Where processing is necessary for the legitimate operation and administration of Anticip8 Driving School, provided that those interests are not overridden by your rights and interests.
Legal obligation: Where we are required to keep or provide information to comply with a legal or regulatory obligation.
Consent: Where the law requires us to obtain your consent, including certain types of website cookies, tracking technologies and online advertising.
Where we rely on consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time.
7. Website analytics, advertising and cookies
Our website uses Google Analytics to help us understand how visitors use our website and to improve its performance and content.
We also use Google Ads and Facebook/Meta advertising and tracking technologies to help advertise Anticip8 Driving School and, where applicable, measure the effectiveness of our advertising.
Some of these technologies may involve cookies or similar technologies that are not strictly necessary for the operation of the website.
Where consent is legally required, these technologies will only be used after you have been given an appropriate opportunity to provide consent.
You should therefore ensure that the website's cookie/consent system is configured correctly so that non-essential Google and Meta tracking does not operate before the necessary consent has been obtained.
You can change or withdraw your cookie preferences where the website provides a cookie preference mechanism.

We do not sell your personal information.
9. How long we keep your information
We keep personal information only for as long as we reasonably need it for the purposes described in this privacy notice, including providing driving tuition, maintaining business records, dealing with enquiries and complying with legal or financial obligations.
The exact retention period may depend on the type of information and the reason we hold it.
When personal information is no longer required, we will take reasonable steps to securely delete or dispose of it.
10. Keeping your information secure
We take reasonable steps to protect the personal information we hold from unauthorised access, loss, misuse, alteration or disclosure.
However, no method of transmitting or storing information electronically can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
You should also take reasonable precautions when communicating personal information through email, WhatsApp, Facebook or other online services.

Depending on the circumstances, you may have rights under UK data protection law, including rights to:
