Privacy Policy
How we collect, use and protect personal data when you visit this site or engage us to prepare financial statements.
Last updated 10 JAN 2026
Overview
This policy explains how LQ Services collects, uses and protects personal data when you visit this website or engage us to prepare financial statements.
Information we collect
Contact details you submit through our forms — your name, company, email address and anything you write in a message. Engagement data you send us, which may include accounting records containing personal data. Basic technical data about your visit, such as the pages viewed and an approximate location.
How we use it
To respond to enquiries and quote for work. To carry out the engagements you instruct us on. To meet our legal, accounting and record-keeping obligations. To keep our systems secure.
Legal bases for processing
We process data to perform a contract with you, to meet legal obligations, and on the basis of our legitimate interest in operating and securing our business. Where we rely on your consent, you may withdraw it at any time.
Sharing and disclosure
We do not sell personal data. We share it only with the service providers who help us operate — such as secure file transfer and hosting — and where disclosure is required by law or by a regulator.
International transfers
We are based in the United States and work with clients across several jurisdictions, so data may move between countries. Where it does, we put appropriate safeguards in place for that transfer.
Security
Data reaches us through encrypted transfer rather than email attachments, and access is restricted to the people assigned to your engagement rather than open to the whole team.
How long we keep it
Engagement records are kept for as long as needed to deliver the work and to satisfy legal and professional retention requirements, after which they are deleted or anonymised.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, delete or restrict the use of your personal data, to object to processing, and to request a portable copy. Contact us and we will respond within the period the law allows.
Cookies and analytics
We use a small number of cookies to make the site work and to understand which pages are used. You can block cookies in your browser, though parts of the site may then behave differently.
Changes to this policy
If this policy changes we will update the date shown above, and material changes will be called out on this page.
