Privacy Policy
Last updated: 23 March 2026
At Advercado.co.uk, we believe trust is everything. Whether you’re listing advertising space, offering services, or launching a campaign, your data — and your relationships — are protected.
This Privacy Policy explains how Advercado Ltd (“Advercado”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) collects, uses, and safeguards your information when you use our platform and services (“Services”).
If you have any questions, contact us at: info@advercado.co.uk
1. Our Commitment to You
Advercado is built to support independent media owners, service providers, and businesses — not compete with them.
We want to be clear:
- We do not sell your data to third parties
- We do not use your data to compete with you
- We do not poach or approach your customers or clients
- We do not remarket your customers outside of the Advercado platform
Your listings, enquiries, and customer relationships remain yours.
Our role is simple: to provide the tools and marketplace to help you generate opportunities — not take them away.

We may also share data in the event of a business restructure, sale, or merger.
We do not sell or rent your personal data — ever.
5. Protecting Vendors & Customer Relationships
Advercado is designed as a true marketplace, not a middleman that takes ownership of your clients.
To protect our vendors and partners:
- Customer enquiries are shared only for the purpose of fulfilling bookings
- We do not extract or reuse your customer data for independent marketing
- We do not bypass vendors to sell directly to their customers

This ensures you can grow your business with confidence on our platform.

7. Social Media Logins
If you register using a third-party platform (e.g. Google or Facebook), we may receive basic profile data such as:
- Name
- Email address
- Profile image
This is only used to create and manage your account.
8. International Data Transfers

Where this happens, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your information in line with UK GDPR.

We only retain your data for as long as necessary to:
