Privacy Notice

How EngTree handles your personal data — what we collect, why we collect it, how it's stored, and your rights under UK GDPR.

Status — drafting in progress

This document is being authored by our legal advisor.

EngTree is pre-launch ahead of our Pre-Seed raise. Formal legal documentation — drafted by a qualified UK solicitor, reviewed for UK GDPR + ICO compliance and engineering-sector-specific liability — is being authored in parallel and will be published here before public launch.

If you have a specific question that can't wait, contact us directly and we'll route you to the right person.
