Privacy Policy

1. Who We Are

OAKMARK TRADING LIMITED (Company No. 17073095), having its registered office in England and Wales, trades as AfterYield (“we, “us”). This policy explains how we collect, use, store, and protect personal data when you visit afteryield.com or contact us for commercial trade services.

2. Information We Collect

We collect only the data you choose to provide, or that is necessary to respond to a trade enquiry:

• Contact details — name, company, email, and phone number when you email trade@afteryield.com or submit an enquiry.
• Enquiry content — the substance of your message, including any commercial details or commodity requirements you choose to share.
• Technical data — a public IP address and browser/device type, processed in aggregate for site security and performance.

We do not collect payment card data, bank account details, or other financial information through this website.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect only to:

• Respond to your enquiries and requests for trade services.
• Prepare and send you quotes, allocations, or trade updates you have asked for.
• Maintain the security and operation of this website.
• Comply with legal and regulatory obligations in the jurisdictions where we operate.

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to third parties, and we do not use it for advertising.

4. Legal Basis for Processing

Where we process personal data under the UK GDPR, we rely on the following lawful bases:

• Consent — where you contact us or submit an enquiry of your own accord.
• Legitimate interests — operating this website and responding to trade enquiries.
• Legal obligation — where required by law or regulation.

5. Retention

We keep personal data only for as long as needed for the purpose for which it was collected (typically up to 24 months from your last enquiry), after which it is securely deleted. Trade records completed into a contracted transaction may be retained for longer where required by commercial or regulatory record-keeping duties.

6. Who We Share Data With

We work with service providers essential to operating the site and carrying out trade coordination, for example email and analytics providers, and inspection or logistics partners you instruct us to involve. We share only the minimum data needed and require all providers to protect it to the same standard described here.

7. Cookies & Tracking

This website does not use advertising or cross-site tracking cookies. We may use lightweight, privacy-respecting analytics in aggregate to understand site usage and performance. You do not need to accept any cookies to use this site.

8. Your Rights

If you are in the UK or the EU, you have the right to:

• Request access to personal data we hold about you.
• Ask us to correct inaccurate data.
• Request deletion of your data where appropriate.
• Object to processing based on legitimate interests.

To exercise any of these rights, email us at privacy@afteryield.com. We will respond within one month of receipt as required by UK and EU data protection law.

9. Data Security

We secure the website with industry-standard technical and organisational measurers — including encryption in transit, access controls, and attentive data handling — to protect personal data from loss, misuse, or unauthorised access.
