Privacy Policy
Last updated:
This Privacy Policy explains how Sigma Lithium Ltd handles personal data in relation to the website https://www.sigmalithium.com/ (the "Website").
1. Summary
We do not intentionally collect, store or otherwise process personal data via this Website. The Website is informational only: it does not provide interactive account features, user registration, or contact forms that store personal data. For clarity: if you contact us by email or phone, information you provide in that communication will be processed for the purpose of responding to your enquiry (see sections below).
2. Who we are
Data controller: Sigma Lithium Ltd
D5 Culham Science Centre, Abingdon, Oxfordshire, OX14 3DB, Great Britaininfo@sigmalithium.com · +44 1865 408330
3. What we (may) collect
As a general rule, the Website does not collect personal data. The following limited situations may involve personal data:
- Direct contact: if you send us an email, telephone call or other direct message, the contact details and the content of your communication will be processed to respond to your enquiry.
- Technical logs: standard, non‑identifying technical data may be logged by our web host, such as IP addresses in server access logs. These logs are used only for basic troubleshooting, security and site operation and are retained for short, limited periods by the host.
If you would like confirmation that no personal data about you is held by us, please contact info@sigmalithium.com.
4. How we use personal data
We do not use personal data for marketing, profiling or advertising. Where personal data is received via direct contact (email/phone), we will use it only to:
- Respond to and handle your enquiry;
- Fulfil any agreed actions arising from that communication.
If you do not want us to process the personal data you provide when contacting us, please inform us and we will delete it where legally possible.
5. Legal basis & ICO registration
Because the Website does not intentionally process personal data, we do not currently undertake systematic processing activities that would require formal registration with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO). If our processing activities change in the future, we will review our obligations and, if required, register with the ICO and update this policy.
This statement is informational and does not constitute legal advice. If you need a formal legal assessment of your data protection obligations, please consult a qualified legal adviser.
6. Retention
Where personal data is provided to us directly (for example, by email), we will retain it only as long as necessary to respond to the enquiry and for any follow‑up required by law or for reasonable business administration. Technical logs retained by our host are kept only for short operational periods.
7. Your rights
Even though we do not actively process personal data via the Website, you retain the rights available under UK data protection law in respect of any personal data we hold about you. These may include rights of access, correction, deletion, restriction, portability and the right to object. To exercise these rights, contact us at info@sigmalithium.com.
If you are unhappy with our response, you have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO): ico.org.uk.
8. Third parties & transfers
We do not share personal data with third parties for marketing or profiling. Limited sharing may occur with service providers who assist with communications or site hosting; such parties act only on our instructions and are required to keep personal data secure. If any personal data is transferred outside the UK, appropriate safeguards will be applied where necessary.
9. Security
We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect any personal data that is provided to us. However, no internet transmission is completely secure; if you have concerns about sending personal data by email, please contact us for alternative arrangements.
10. Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date. Where changes materially affect how we handle personal data, we will notify you as required by law.
Note: This policy is prepared to reflect the Website's current practice of not collecting or processing personal data. It is the responsibility of Sigma Lithium Ltd to ensure that practice remains accurate and to update this policy and any regulatory registrations if practices change.
