This policy should be reviewed against LSS's actual systems, suppliers, retention schedule and ICO registration details.
1 Who we are
Language Services and Solutions provides interpreting, translation and related language services. For privacy enquiries, contact info@thelss.com.
2 Information we may collect
We may process requester and organisation contact details, assignment information, language and accessibility requirements, correspondence, source documents, service records, invoices and feedback. Some assignments may involve special-category or sensitive information supplied by the client.
3 Why we use information
We use information to respond to enquiries, prepare quotations, arrange and deliver services, manage linguists and suppliers, communicate about bookings, meet legal and financial duties, protect people and systems, and improve service quality. The applicable lawful basis depends on the context and may include contract, legitimate interests, legal obligation, consent or substantial public interest conditions.
4 Sharing
Information is shared only where reasonably necessary with appropriately selected linguists, reviewers, service providers, professional advisers or authorities. Clients should avoid sending information that is not needed for the assignment.
5 Retention and security
Records are kept only for as long as required for service, legal, safeguarding, insurance and financial purposes. LSS applies proportionate organisational and technical safeguards and expects confidentiality from those delivering services.

Depending on the circumstances, individuals may have rights of access, correction, erasure, restriction, objection, portability and complaint. Requests can be sent to the contact address above. You may also complain to the UK Information Commissioner's Office.
