Ascend CRM

Privacy and cookies

This covers the Ascend CRM website (crm.ascend-digital.co.uk), signing up, and paying for Ascend CRM. Ascend Digital is responsible for it.

What we collect

  • When you sign up: your name, email address, business name and workspace address, so we can create and run your workspace.
  • When you subscribe: payments are taken by Stripe. We keep your subscription and invoices; we never see or store card numbers.
  • Where you came from: if you arrive from one of our campaigns, we note the campaign tags in the link (such as utm_source and utm_campaign) and the page you landed on, and keep them with your workspace so we know which campaigns work. Advertising click ids (gclid, fbclid) are kept only if you accept advertising cookies.
  • Inside your workspace: the customer data you put into Ascend CRM is yours. We process it only to provide the service, and none of the analytics or advertising tags below ever run inside workspaces or on your customer portal.

Cookies

Essential cookies are always on. Analytics and advertising cookies are off unless you accept them, and you can change your mind at any time. Your choice is remembered for 6 months.

We use Google's Consent Mode: until you accept, Google's and Meta's tags aren't loaded at all. With your consent, Google and Meta receive the page you visited and events such as a sign-up or a purchase (with its value and order reference), and process them under their own privacy policies.

How long we keep it, and your rights

We keep account and billing records while you have a workspace and as long as the law requires afterwards. You can ask for a copy of your personal data, ask us to correct or delete it, or object to how we use it. You can also complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ico.org.uk).
