Privacy notice
How Rees Clayton Solicitors handles information provided through Aldermark Defence.
Who is responsible?
Aldermark Defence is a campaign website operated for Rees Clayton Solicitors Ltd. Rees Clayton Solicitors Ltd is responsible for personal information submitted through this website. Its registered office is The Ace Enterprise Centre, Cross Street, Nelson, Lancashire, BB9 7NN.
Online enquiries
When the page identifies the form as a secure online enquiry, the details you submit are sent to Rees Clayton Solicitors’ customer relationship management system so the firm can review and respond. This may include contact details, the type and stage of a criminal matter, hearing or interview information, funding preference and a brief summary.
Do not upload documents or provide information the form does not request. The form confirms when an enquiry has been received. If submission fails, use the telephone or email shown on this website.
Why information is used
The firm uses enquiry information to take steps at your request before deciding whether it can act, to communicate with you, to protect the website from misuse and to meet legal and regulatory responsibilities. Criminal allegation information is handled only where necessary for those purposes and subject to appropriate safeguards. Submitting an enquiry does not create a solicitor-client relationship, arrange representation or confirm legal aid eligibility.
Technical information
The website is hosted by Vercel. Hosting infrastructure may process request data such as an IP address, browser details, requested page and request time to deliver and secure the website. The enquiry record may include the source page, campaign attribution and device category. The site does not describe analytics, advertising pixels or third-party font requests as enabled.
Retention and sharing
The firm keeps enquiry information only for as long as needed for the enquiry and its legal, regulatory and record-keeping responsibilities. Access is limited to authorised staff and service providers supporting the website and CRM. Information may be disclosed where required by law or regulation.
Your rights and contact
Depending on the circumstances, you may have rights to access, correct, erase or restrict use of personal information, object to processing and request portability. For a privacy enquiry, use the verified contact details on Rees Clayton’s website. You may also raise a concern with the Information Commissioner’s Office.
