Onshore Partners ("we", "us", "our") is committed to protecting your privacy. This policy explains what personal data we collect, how we use it, and your rights under the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018.
Onshore Partners is a UK payroll and finance practice providing payroll, Self Assessment and related services. For data-protection purposes, we act as a data controller for the information we hold about enquirers and clients, and as a data processor when we process payroll data on behalf of employer clients.

We only share personal data where it is necessary to deliver our services or to meet a legal obligation. In practice that means:
These are data processors acting on our instructions under written terms. We do not sell your data, and we never share it for advertising. We never sell your personal data.
We store data in the UK and the European Economic Area wherever we can. Some of the providers above are based outside the UK, or route traffic through servers outside the UK, so your data may be transferred internationally. Where that happens we rely on the UK's adequacy regulations, or on the International Data Transfer Agreement or UK Addendum to the EU Standard Contractual Clauses, together with appropriate technical safeguards such as encryption. You can ask us for details of the safeguards that apply to any particular transfer.
We collect and exchange information through secure channels, never insecure email. When you need to send us documents or personal data, we give you a private, password-protected, end-to-end-encrypted upload link, so your information is never exchanged over ordinary email. Data is held in a secure, access-controlled, encrypted system, kept in the UK/EU, and we apply appropriate technical and organisational measures to keep it safe and confidential.
We keep personal data only as long as necessary for the purpose it was collected and to meet legal and regulatory requirements (for example, tax and AML record-keeping periods), after which it is securely deleted.
Under UK GDPR you have the right to access, correct, erase, restrict or object to our processing of your personal data, and to data portability. To exercise any of these, email us at hello@onshorepartners.co.uk. You also have the right to complain to the ICO at ico.org.uk.
This site sets no cookies of its own, and we do not use advertising or third-party tracking cookies. We do not track you across other websites and we do not build a profile of you.
We do measure how the site is used. We use Cloudflare Web Analytics, which counts page views and reports things like which pages are visited, roughly where in the world visitors are, and how quickly pages load. It is designed to be privacy-first: it stores nothing on your device, sets no cookies, uses no fingerprinting, and does not follow you to other sites. Because it stores nothing on your device, it does not require a cookie banner. We rely on our legitimate interest in understanding whether our website is useful, and you can object to this at any time using the contact details above.
Our hosting provider also processes standard technical data such as IP addresses to keep the site secure and available, and our forms use Cloudflare Turnstile to prevent automated abuse.
We may update this policy from time to time. The "last updated" date above shows when it was last revised.
