PRIVACY NOTICE
Your information,
handled with care.
This notice explains how Irish Prospect Research handles personal data in enquiries, customer work and B2B research. Effective date: 12 November 2026.
Irish Prospect Research is an unincorporated trading name operated by an individual in Ireland. The operator is the data controller for the processing described here. Contact: irishprospectresearch@gmail.com. No registered office address is published here; contact us by email for privacy requests.
Information we may handle
- Enquiries and customers: name, business contact details, the content of your enquiry, agreed brief and communications.
- Business prospect research: limited professional information about people acting in a business capacity where relevant to an agreed B2B brief, such as a public business role or business contact detail, together with source and research date.
- Payment administration: payment status or transaction references made available by the payment provider. Payment card and account credentials are handled by PayPal, not collected by this site.
- Website operations: the site is a static set of pages and does not intentionally use analytics, advertising trackers, cookies or a contact form. The hosting provider may process technical request data such as IP address in its server logs under its own terms.
Why and on what basis
We use enquiry and project information to respond to requests, agree and deliver services, maintain business records and handle support. This is generally necessary for steps requested before a contract or for performing a contract, and for legitimate interests in running and improving the service, subject to people's rights.
Where professional information about identifiable people is researched, we aim to limit it to what is relevant to the business brief and use publicly accessible sources. The basis may be legitimate interests in providing B2B research, assessed against the person's rights and expectations. We do not treat an individual's public details as permission for unsolicited email marketing. Electronic marketing is only sent where permitted by applicable law; an objection or opt-out is respected.
Sources, recipients and processors
Research may use company websites, public business directories, public registers and other relevant sources. Customer deliverables are shared with the customer who commissioned the research. Operational providers may process data to support email, file delivery, payment and website hosting, under their own service arrangements. This package itself adds no analytics or form provider. PayPal processes payments under its own privacy terms.
We do not sell personal data. We do not intentionally transfer research data outside the EEA as a separate service; some providers may process data internationally under their own arrangements. The hosting account and final provider settings must be confirmed when the site is published.
Retention and security
We keep enquiry and transaction records only as long as reasonably needed for the enquiry, service delivery, dispute handling and applicable record-keeping duties. Delivered research is retained only as needed to complete the service and maintain a reasonable record of work. Opt-out information may be kept in a minimal suppression record so that the preference is not accidentally overridden. Retention periods should be set for the actual operating workflow before launch.
Reasonable safeguards are used for the small-scale service, but no online transmission or storage method can be guaranteed completely secure.
Your rights and contact
Depending on the circumstances, you may ask to access, correct, erase or restrict personal data, object to processing, or request portability. Where processing relies on consent, you can withdraw it. You can object at any time to the use of your personal data for direct marketing. To make a request, email irishprospectresearch@gmail.com. We may need enough information to identify the relevant data and will respond within the period required by law.
You can also raise a concern with the Irish Data Protection Commission at dataprotection.ie.
Changes
This notice may be updated as the service, hosting or tools change. The current version will be posted on this website with a revised effective date.
