Our lawful bases for processing
Under UK data protection law, we must have a lawful basis for processing personal data.
Depending on the circumstances, we rely on:
Legitimate interests – where processing is reasonably necessary for our business activities, including responding to enquiries, managing professional relationships, developing our business and identifying relevant commercial opportunities, provided those interests are not overridden by your rights and interests.
Contract – where processing is necessary to enter into or perform a contract with you.
Legal obligation – where we need to process information to comply with a legal or regulatory requirement.
Consent – where you have specifically consented to particular processing, including the use of non-essential analytics cookies where consent is required. You may withdraw consent at any time.
Business development
As a B2B sports partnerships agency, we may identify and contact individuals in relevant professional roles regarding opportunities that we reasonably believe may be relevant to their organisation or professional responsibilities.
We may obtain professional contact information directly from individuals, through introductions, from their employer or organisation, or from publicly available professional sources.
Where we rely on legitimate interests for this activity, we consider the nature of the information, the individual’s professional role, their reasonable expectations and the potential impact of our use of their information.
You may ask us at any time not to use your personal data for business development purposes by contacting matt.gamby@playmaker-sports.com.
Google Analytics and cookies
We use Google Analytics to help us understand how visitors interact with our website.
Google Analytics may collect information about your device, browser, approximate location and how you use our website.
Where required, Google Analytics will only be activated after you have provided consent through our cookie controls.
You can change or withdraw your cookie preferences at any time through Cookie Settings on our website.

Sharing your information
We do not sell your personal data.
We may share personal data where necessary with trusted service providers that support our business, such as:
- website hosting and infrastructure providers;
- website and technology service providers;
- email and communications providers;
- analytics providers;
- professional advisers, including accountants, lawyers and insurers; and
- other suppliers acting on our behalf.
We may also disclose personal data where required by law, regulation, court order or a competent authority, or where necessary to protect our legal rights.
Where another organisation acts as a processor on our behalf, we require it to handle personal data appropriately and in accordance with applicable data protection law.
International transfers
Some of the technology and service providers we use may process personal data outside the United Kingdom.
Where personal data is transferred internationally, we take appropriate steps to ensure that the transfer complies with applicable UK data protection law. This may include relying on UK adequacy regulations or approved contractual safeguards.
How long we keep your information
We keep personal data only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including satisfying legal, accounting and reporting requirements.
The appropriate retention period depends on the nature of the information and our relationship with you.
For example, enquiries that do not result in a business relationship will generally be retained only for as long as reasonably necessary to manage the enquiry and any relevant follow-up. Information relating to clients, contracts and transactions may be retained for longer where necessary for contractual, tax, accounting or legal purposes.
We periodically review the personal data we hold and delete or anonymise information that is no longer required.

Depending on the circumstances, UK data protection law gives you rights in relation to your personal data, including the right to:
- request access to the personal data we hold about you;
- ask us to correct inaccurate or incomplete information;
- request deletion of your personal data in certain circumstances;
- request restriction of processing;
- object to certain processing, including processing based on legitimate interests;
- request transfer of certain personal data;
- withdraw consent where we rely on consent; and
- complain about how we process your personal data.
You have the right to object at any time to the use of your personal data for direct marketing purposes.
To exercise your rights, contact matt.gamby@playmaker-sports.com.
You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO), the UK’s data protection regulator.
Security
We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against unauthorised access, loss, misuse, alteration or disclosure.
However, no internet-based service or method of electronic storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
