This policy explains what personal data Edge7 Networks collects, why we collect it, how we look after it, and the rights you have over it. We keep our data handling to what is necessary to run our business and respond to you. We do not sell your data or build advertising profiles.
Before publishing: the bracketed items below still need confirming. The company registration number(s), the country of registration, and whether the company is registered with the Data Protection Commission or the ICO. This draft is not legal advice and should be reviewed by a qualified adviser or the CSSO before it goes live.
Edge7 Networks provides managed networking, security, and consulting services to organisations across Ireland and the United Kingdom. When we decide how and why your personal data is processed, we are the data controller.
Our registered details are:
Because we serve people and organisations in both the EU and the UK, this policy is written to meet the EU General Data Protection Regulation (Regulation (EU) 2016/679) and the UK GDPR as retained in UK law alongside the Data Protection Act 2018.
When you contact us through the website, email us, book a call, sign up for the podcast or our updates, or engage us for a service, you may share:
When you visit the website, our hosting provider and infrastructure collect limited technical information for security and reliability. This can include your IP address, browser type, the pages you view, and the date and time of your visit.
With your consent, we also use analytics and visitor-identification tools. Analytics helps us understand how the site is used. Our visitor-identification tool, Leadfeeder (Dealfront), uses network information such as your IP address to identify the organisation you are visiting from, so our team can follow up in a relevant way. This identifies organisations, not you as a named individual. None of these tools run until you allow them, and how they use cookies is explained in our Cookie Policy.
We do not ask for special category data (such as health, religion, or political views) and we ask that you do not include it in your enquiries. We do not knowingly collect data about children through this website.
Under the GDPR and UK GDPR we must have a lawful basis for each way we use your data. The table below sets out what we do and the basis we rely on.
| What we do | Why | Lawful basis |
|---|---|---|
| Respond to enquiries and requests | To answer your question and, where relevant, understand whether we are a fit for your organisation | Legitimate interests, or steps taken at your request before entering a contract |
| Provide and support our services | To deliver, manage, and support the services you have engaged us for | Performance of a contract |
| Send occasional updates, insights, or podcast notifications | To keep you informed where you have asked us to, or where you are an existing client and the content is relevant | Consent, or legitimate interests |
| Measure site usage and identify visiting organisations | To understand how the website is used and which organisations are interested, so we can improve the site and follow up | Consent |
| Keep the website secure and working | To protect the site against misuse and to diagnose problems | Legitimate interests |
| Meet legal, tax, and accounting obligations | To comply with the law that applies to our business | Legal obligation |
Where we rely on legitimate interests, we have considered whether those interests are overridden by your rights, and we have concluded they are not. You can object to this processing at any time. Where we rely on consent, you can withdraw it at any time without affecting anything we did before you withdrew it.
Our default position is to process and store personal data within Ireland and the European Economic Area. Some of the providers above may, however, process data outside the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom. For example, Google may process analytics data in the United States. Where that happens, we make sure an appropriate safeguard is in place, such as an adequacy decision by the European Commission or the UK Government, including the EU-US and UK-US Data Privacy Framework, or Standard Contractual Clauses together with the UK Addendum or the UK International Data Transfer Agreement. You can ask us for more detail on the safeguards that apply.
We keep personal data only for as long as we need it for the purpose we collected it, or for as long as the law requires. As a general guide:
When we no longer need your data, we delete it securely or anonymise it.
Under the GDPR and UK GDPR you have the right to:
We do not use your data for automated decision making that produces legal or similarly significant effects. To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details below. We will respond within one month, and there is normally no charge.
Security is central to what we do, and we apply the same discipline to our own data. We maintain technical and organisational measures appropriate to the risk, including access controls, encryption in transit, and supplier due diligence. Our operations are certified to recognised standards, including ISO 27001:2022, ISO 9001:2015, and Cyber Essentials. No system can be guaranteed completely secure, but we work to protect your data and to respond promptly if something goes wrong.
This website uses a small number of cookies and similar technologies. How they work and how you can manage them is explained in our Cookie Policy.
Our services are aimed at organisations, not individuals in a personal capacity, and this website is not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect data relating to children.
The website contains links to other sites, such as our LinkedIn page or partner sites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites, and we encourage you to read their policies.
We may update this policy from time to time to reflect changes in how we work or in the law. When we do, we will change the date at the top of the page. Where the change is significant, we will take reasonable steps to let you know.
Data protection at Edge7 Networks is overseen by our Chief Security Services Officer (CSSO). If you have a question about this policy or want to exercise your rights, please get in touch.

If you are not satisfied with how we have handled your data, you have the right to complain to a supervisory authority. In the Republic of Ireland this is the Data Protection Commission (dataprotection.ie). In the United Kingdom this is the Information Commissioner's Office (ico.org.uk). We would welcome the chance to address your concern first, so please do contact us before you do.
