Privacy Policy — ExEx Vision Website

The Expertise Exchange Limited (ExEx)

Last updated: 12/08/2026

1. Our Approach to Privacy

The Expertise Exchange ("ExEx", "we", "us" or "our") respects your privacy and is committed to protecting the personal information you provide to us.

ExEx is currently in its development and validation stage. This website has been created to explain the ExEx vision, demonstrate how the proposed service could operate and enable interested individuals and organisations to register their interest in its future development.

This Privacy Policy explains what information we may collect through the ExEx Vision website, why we collect it, how we use it and the rights you have in relation to your personal information.

2. Who We Are

The Expertise Exchange is being developed as a marketplace designed to connect expertise with opportunity.

The organisation responsible for personal information collected through this website is:

The Expertise Exchange Limited - Trading as: ExEx

Registered office: 70 Seabourne Road, Bournemouth, Dorset, United Kingdom, BH5 2HT

Company number: 17357722
Email: Privacy@theexpertiseexchange.com

For UK data protection purposes, The Expertise Exchange Limited is the data controller for personal information collected through this website.

3. Information We May Collect

The information we collect will depend upon how you use the website.

If you register your interest in ExEx, we may ask you to provide information including:

Your name.

Email address.

Telephone number.

General location.

Current or previous occupation or profession.

Business or organisation name.

Areas of expertise and experience.

Your potential interest in becoming a Founder Member.

Your potential interest in ExEx as an Expertise Partner, Corporate Partner, Community Partner, investor or other participant.

Any comments or information you voluntarily provide.

We may also collect limited technical information relating to your use of the website, such as your IP address, browser type, device type and pages visited, where this is necessary for security, website operation or analytics.

We will not intentionally request information that is unnecessary for the purpose for which it is being collected.

4. How We Use Your Information

We may use your personal information to:

Respond to enquiries.

Record registrations of interest.

Communicate with prospective Founder Members.

Provide information about the development of ExEx.

Understand the backgrounds and interests of people attracted to the ExEx proposition.

Help validate and develop the ExEx concept.

Improve the Vision website and future ExEx services.

Maintain appropriate records of our communications.

Protect the security and integrity of our website.

Meet legal and regulatory obligations.

Registering an interest does not create any obligation to become a Founder Member, invest in ExEx or purchase any future service.

5. Our Legal Basis for Processing

We will only process personal information where we have a lawful basis for doing so.

Depending upon the circumstances, this may include:

Consent – where you have specifically agreed that we may use your information for a particular purpose.

Legitimate interests – where processing is reasonably necessary to develop, operate and protect ExEx and those interests do not override your privacy rights.

Contract – where processing becomes necessary to take steps at your request before entering into an agreement or to perform an agreement with you.

Legal obligation – where we are required to process information to comply with the law.

Where we rely upon consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time.

6. Founder 100 Registrations

Information provided by people expressing an interest in becoming one of the ExEx Founder 100 will initially be used to assess interest in the proposition and communicate developments relating to ExEx.

Registration of interest is not an application for shares, an investment commitment or a binding agreement.

Before any Founder Member is asked to make a financial commitment, further information will be provided explaining the proposed legal, financial and governance arrangements and any additional personal information that may be required.

7. Sharing Your Information

We will not sell your personal information.

We may share information with carefully selected organisations that provide services necessary for the development or operation of ExEx, such as:

Website hosting providers.

Software and technology providers.

Email and communications providers.

Professional advisers.

Accountants and legal advisers.

Data security and verification providers.

Where appropriate, such organisations will be required to handle personal information securely and only for the purposes for which it has been provided.

We may also disclose information where required by law or where reasonably necessary to protect ExEx, its users or others.

8. International Transfers

Some technology providers may process information outside the United Kingdom.

Where personal information is transferred internationally, we will take appropriate steps to ensure that it receives the level of protection required by UK data protection law.

9. How Long We Keep Information

We will retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected.

Information relating to registrations of interest may be retained throughout the ExEx validation and development period so that we can keep interested parties informed of material developments.

You may ask us to delete your information at any time, subject to any legal requirement for us to retain it.

10. Keeping Your Information Secure

We will take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal information against loss, misuse, unauthorised access, alteration or disclosure.

As ExEx develops, its information security arrangements will evolve alongside the platform and the nature and volume of information being processed.

No internet-based system can guarantee absolute security, but protecting member and user information will remain a fundamental principle of ExEx.

11. Cookies and Website Analytics

The ExEx website may use cookies and similar technologies necessary for the website to operate effectively.

Where optional cookies or analytics technologies are used, appropriate information and choices will be provided to visitors in accordance with applicable law.

Further details may be provided in a separate Cookie Policy.

12. Marketing and ExEx Updates

If you ask to receive information about ExEx, we may contact you with relevant news and development updates.

You can ask us to stop sending these communications at any time by using the unsubscribe facility provided or by contacting us directly.

We will not sell mailing lists or personal contact information to third parties.

13. Your Rights

Under UK data protection law, you may have the right to:

Ask what personal information we hold about you.

Request a copy of your personal information.

Ask us to correct inaccurate or incomplete information.

Ask us to delete personal information in certain circumstances.

Restrict the way we process your information.

Object to certain types of processing.

Withdraw consent where processing is based upon consent.

Request transfer of certain information where applicable.

To exercise any of these rights, please contact:

Privacy@theexpertiseexchange.com

We may need to verify your identity before responding to a request.

14. Complaints

If you have concerns about how we handle your personal information, we would welcome the opportunity to address them directly.

You also have the right to raise a concern with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO), the UK's independent data protection regulator.

15. Future Development of ExEx

The services offered by ExEx are expected to evolve considerably.

The future operational ExEx platform may process additional information required for services such as professional verification, opportunity matching, contractual engagements, payments and other member services.

This Privacy Policy will therefore evolve alongside ExEx.

Where new services materially change the way personal information is collected or used, this Policy will be updated and, where required, users will be informed.

16. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes to ExEx, the website, technology or applicable law.

The latest version will always be published on the ExEx website together with the date on which it was last updated.
