Privacy Policy

Last updated: September 2026

FP and Associates Ltd (“we”, “us”, “our”) is committed to protecting your privacy. This policy explains what personal information we collect, how we use it, and your rights. It applies to our website and our dealings with clients, candidates and contacts.

Who we are

Foundation Partners is operated by FP and Associates Ltd, company number 16159139, registered office 25 Newman Street, London W1T 1PN (UK operations), and Foundation Partners USA Inc, 350 1st Avenue, New York, NY, 10010 (US operations). We are the data controller for the information we hold about you. For any privacy questions, contact us at dpo@foundationpartners.co.uk

Information we collect

We may collect: your name, email address, company and job title; any information you provide through our contact or application forms; and technical information such as your IP address and browsing activity collected through cookies and analytics.

How we use it

We use your information to respond to enquiries, deliver our services, consider job applications, send you material you’ve asked for, improve our website, and meet our legal obligations.

Legal basis (UK and EU users)

We process your personal data where we have your consent, where it's necessary to perform a contract or take steps to enter one, where we have a legitimate interest in running our business, or where we're required to by law.

How we use your information and why (US users)

We collect and use your personal information only for the reasons described in this policy — to respond to your enquiries, deliver our services, consider job applications, send you information you've asked for, and improve our website. We don't use it for unrelated purposes, and we don't sell it. If you have questions about how we're using your information, contact us at dpo@foundationpartners.co.uk

Sharing your information

We may share it with trusted service providers who help us operate (for example, email, hosting and analytics providers), with others in the Amplified Group where relevant to your enquiry, and, where you are a candidate, with prospective employers or clients to whom we are considering putting you forward (we will tell you before doing so), always under appropriate safeguards.

International transfers

As we operate in both the UK and US, your data may be transferred and stored outside the UK. Where it is, we rely on the UK International Data Transfer Agreement (IDTA) or equivalent approved safeguards, such as the UK Addendum to the EU Standard Contractual Clauses, to protect it, including where applicable the UK-US Data Bridge or standard contractual clauses. You can request a copy of the relevant safeguard from dpo@foundationpartners.co.uk

How long we keep it

We keep personal data only as long as necessary for the purposes set out above, or as required by law. We typically retain client records for up to 6 years and candidate records for up to 2 years.

Your rights

You have the right to access, correct, or delete your personal data, to object to or restrict its processing, to receive a copy of it in a portable format, and to withdraw consent. To exercise any of these, contact us at dpo@foundationpartners.co.uk. If you are in the UK, you also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) at ico.org.uk. If you are in California, you may also contact the California Privacy Protection Agency (CPPA) at cppa.ca.gov. California residents also have the right to know whether their personal information is sold or shared, and to opt out of such sale or sharing. We do not sell your personal information. If you are in New York or another US state, you may contact the New York Attorney General's Office at ag.ny.gov.
