Leighside Limited (company number 07957920, registered office 185b Harvist Road, London NW6 6HB) is responsible for the personal data described here.

What we collect

If you write to us, we hold your contact details and your message. If your employer is our client, we process the details needed to pay you: identity and contact details, National Insurance number, tax code, earnings, deductions, pension and bank account details. Your employer is the controller of that data and we act as its processor.

What we do with it

Contact details are used to answer you. Payroll data is used to calculate pay, issue payslips and statutory forms, report to HMRC and pension schemes, and maintain the records required by law. Nothing else.

Lawful basis

Enquiries are handled on the basis of legitimate interests. Payroll processing is carried out to perform our contract with the employer and to meet legal obligations.

Sharing

We disclose payroll data to HMRC, to the employer's pension provider and to carefully chosen providers of payroll software and secure hosting. We never sell personal data or pass it on for marketing.

Retention

Enquiry messages are deleted within a year if no engagement follows. Payroll records are retained for the period tax legislation demands, at present a minimum of three years from the end of the relevant tax year.

The website

There are no forms, advertising cookies or trackers on this site. The hosting service records routine technical logs for security purposes.

Your rights

You may request a copy of your data, ask for corrections, and in certain cases ask for erasure or restriction. Employees of our clients should normally approach their employer first. You can reach us at info@leighside.com, and you have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ico.org.uk).
