3. Scope of This Policy

This policy covers personal data processed through the Lead Intelligence Platform, including data supplied by clients or received via connected systems, integrations, or advertising platforms (for example, Facebook Lead Ads, Google Ads, or similar).
It also includes data processed through the delivery of on-site messages, overlays, pop-ups and consent banners configured by clients through the Platform.

In these cases, the client (Agency or Trade End User) remains the data controller, while Lead Intelligence acts as their data processor, ensuring that all such data is handled securely and in accordance with this policy.

6. Purposes of Processing

Purpose

Description

Campaign management and optimisation

To deliver, measure and optimise campaign performance across multiple channels.

Data validation, enrichment and routing

To verify, enhance and assess the quality of data generated through the Platform — including leads and other marketing events such as impressions, clicks, conversions, downloads, app installs and sales. This may involve checking contact and technical data for accuracy, identifying duplicates or potential fraud, enriching records with additional information, and applying rule-based or compliance filters to determine suitability and route data to the appropriate campaign, client or destination system.

On-site messaging and user engagement

To deliver, personalise and record interactions with on-site messages (such as sliders, pop-ups, overlays, or cookie banners) served through the Platform. This includes ensuring messages display correctly, respecting user preferences (e.g. hide or consent choices), preventing repetition, and measuring engagement for reporting and optimisation.

Fraud detection and prevention

To prevent duplicate, invalid or fraudulent submissions and protect clients’ campaigns from abuse.

Reporting and analytics

To provide aggregated performance reporting and insights to clients, agencies and trade end users.

Security and platform integrity

To authenticate users, prevent abuse, maintain service reliability and protect data confidentiality.

Compliance and audit

To maintain records and logs required for contractual, regulatory or legal obligations.

Where on-site messages or campaign elements involve cookies or similar technologies, LI supports client-managed consent mechanisms in line with applicable privacy and electronic communications laws. Clients remain responsible for obtaining any required consents under the UK Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR) or EU ePrivacy Directive.

7. Legal Bases for Processing

  • Performance of contract: to deliver services defined in the client agreement.
  • Legitimate interests: to support fraud prevention, network security, service improvement or operational analytics without overriding individual rights.

  • Regular penetration testing and vulnerability assessments

13. Incident Response and Notifications

In the event of a personal-data breach affecting the Platform, LI will investigate and, where required, notify affected clients and authorities within 48–72 hours of becoming aware. All incidents are managed under LI’s formal Incident Response Procedure.

14. Data Protection by Design and Default

LI embeds data-protection principles throughout the Platform lifecycle, including:

  • Default anonymisation and deletion options for expired lead data
  • Rule-based compliance filters for campaign data-handling
  • Role-based permissions and audit logging
  • Privacy and security reviews for new features prior to release
  • Secure transport protocols (HTTPS, SFTP, FTPS) for all data exchanges
  • Built-in consent tools supporting clients’ compliance with PECR and ePrivacy rules
  • Configurable retention and deletion settings enabling clients to define how long data, including CRM records, are retained

Lead Intelligence operates under the broader Magnetise Group Data Protection Policy, ensuring data-protection principles and accountability are embedded by design and by default across all group operations.

15. Business Continuity and Back-ups

Data is backed up daily within AWS and replicated to Amazon S3, accessible only to authorised administrators. These back-ups are encrypted and maintained to ensure operational resilience and disaster recovery.

16. Children’s Data

The LI Platform is not designed or intended for use in campaigns targeting or collecting data from children under 16. Clients must ensure their campaigns comply with all age and consent requirements.
