SMIAB Limited, trading as Fracifind (“Fracifind”, “we”), is the data controller for the information described in this notice. We are registered in England and Wales, company number 16278701, with our registered office at Dale House, Bury, BL0 9RB. We are registered with the Information Commissioner’s Office, registration number ZC252359.
If you have any question about this notice or about how we use your information, contact us at hello@fracifind.com.
Fracifind is a confidential register that introduces experienced fractional finance professionals to businesses that need them. This notice explains what we collect from three groups of people: readers of our articles, finance professionals who join the register, and businesses that use it.
What we collect: your email address; whether you asked to receive our updates; and which page you came from.
Why: to give you the article you asked for, to send you new pieces if you asked for them, and to understand which of our articles are useful.
Our lawful basis: we rely on our legitimate interests in delivering the content you requested and in understanding, in aggregate, how our site is used. For marketing emails we rely on your consent, which you give by ticking a box that is separate from everything else and which you can withdraw at any time using the unsubscribe link in every message.
Reading an article never depends on consenting to marketing. If you unlock an article without ticking the box, we record your address so that the article stays unlocked for you, and we do not send you marketing.
How long we keep it: if you never confirm your email address, we delete the record within 30 days. Otherwise we keep it until you unsubscribe or ask us to delete it, and we review the list at least annually.
What we collect: your name and contact details; your professional history, sectors, skills and qualifications; the kind of work you want and your availability; your day rate or rate expectations; evidence of your identity and of your right to work in the UK; any professional body membership; and a record of the introductions we make for you.
Why: to assess whether the register is right for you, to match you to engagements, to make introductions only where you have agreed to them, and to meet our legal obligations as an introductions business.
Our lawful basis: performance of our contract with you; our legitimate interests in operating and improving the register; and legal obligation for identity, right-to-work and record-keeping requirements.
Nothing is revealed without your say-so. A business sees your identity only when you have agreed to that specific introduction.
How long we keep it: for as long as you are on the register, and for 6 years after you leave, to meet our record-keeping obligations and to deal with any dispute about an introduction. You can ask us to remove your profile at any time.
We never charge you, and we never pass your details to recruiters.
What we collect: your name, role and work contact details; your organisation’s details; what you are looking for and the terms you are offering; and a record of the introductions and payments made.
Why: to provide the service, to make introductions, to take payment, and to keep the records the law requires of us.
Our lawful basis: performance of our contract with you; legal obligation for record-keeping and accounting; and our legitimate interests in operating the service and preventing misuse.
How long we keep it: for the life of the relationship and for 6 years afterwards.
We use a small number of suppliers who process information on our instructions and under written agreement:
We do not sell your data. We do not pass your details to recruiters. We share a Fraci’s identity with a business only where that Fraci has consented to the specific introduction.
We may disclose information where we are required to by law.
Some of our suppliers process data outside the UK. Where they do, we rely on the safeguards permitted by UK data protection law, including the International Data Transfer Agreement or the UK Addendum. Details are available on request.
We may analyse the information we hold to produce anonymised, aggregate insight about the fractional finance market — for example typical rates by role, sector and region. Anything we publish from that analysis is aggregated so that no individual and no business can be identified.
You can ask us to give you a copy of the information we hold about you; correct it; delete it; restrict how we use it; or object to our using it. Where we rely on your consent you can withdraw it at any time, and where we rely on legitimate interests you can object.
Email hello@fracifind.com and we will respond within one month.
If you are unhappy with how we have handled your information you can complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office at ico.org.uk, or by calling 0303 123 1113. We would rather you came to us first so we can put it right.
Our site does not use advertising or tracking cookies.
We use Plausible Analytics, a privacy-focused service, to count visits to our pages and see which articles are read. It does not use cookies and does not collect personal data about you.
We use local storage on your own device to remember that you have already unlocked an article, so you are not asked twice. It never leaves your browser and we cannot read it.
We will update this notice when what we do changes. The date at the top tells you when we last did. Where a change materially affects you, we will tell you directly.
Fracifind is currently operated by SMIAB Limited. We intend to incorporate a dedicated company, Fracifind Ltd, and to transfer the operation of Fracifind — including the information described in this notice — to it.
When that happens, Fracifind Ltd will become the data controller on the same terms set out here, and we will update this notice and tell you. Nothing about how your information is used will change as a result, and you will keep every right described in section 6, including the right to ask us to delete your information at any point before or after the transfer.
