3. How We Use Your Data
NJB Legal uses your personal data for the following purposes:
To respond to your legal enquiry and provide the legal services you have requested.
To communicate with you about your matter, including sending correspondence, documents and updates.
To comply with our legal and regulatory obligations, including SRA professional duties, anti-money laundering obligations and court orders.

To send you information about NJB Legal services where you have consented to receive such communications.
4. Legal Basis for Processing
We process your personal data on the following legal bases under UK GDPR:
Contract
Where we are providing legal services to you, processing is necessary for the performance of a contract between us, or to take steps at your request prior to entering a contract.
Legal obligation
Where processing is necessary to comply with a legal obligation to which NJB Legal is subject — including SRA regulatory requirements, anti-money laundering legislation and tax obligations.
Legitimate interests
Where we have a legitimate interest in processing your data that is not overridden by your rights — for example, to respond to website enquiries, maintain client records and improve our services.
Consent
Where you have given clear consent for us to process your data for a specific purpose, such as sending marketing communications. You may withdraw consent at any time by contacting us.
5. Data Retention
NJB Legal will retain your personal data only for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting or reporting requirements.
For client matter files, we typically retain records for a minimum of six years following the conclusion of a matter, in accordance with SRA guidance and limitation periods under English law. In certain cases — such as property transactions or matters involving trusts or wills — longer retention periods may apply.
Where you contact us via the website enquiry form but do not proceed to instruct NJB Legal, we will retain your enquiry data for no longer than 12 months unless a longer period is required by law.
Website analytics data is retained in anonymised form and is not linked to identifiable individuals.
6. Your Rights
Under UK GDPR, you have the following rights in relation to your personal data:
Right of access: You have the right to request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
Right to rectification: You have the right to ask us to correct inaccurate or incomplete personal data.
Right to erasure: In certain circumstances, you have the right to ask us to delete your personal data.
Right to restrict processing: You may ask us to restrict the processing of your personal data in certain circumstances.
Right to data portability: Where processing is based on consent or contract, you may request that we transfer your data to another organisation in a commonly used, machine-readable format.
Right to object: You have the right to object to processing based on legitimate interests or for direct marketing purposes.
Right to withdraw consent: Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out prior to withdrawal.
To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at info@anisrahmanchambers.co.uk. We will respond to all legitimate requests within one month. If you are not satisfied with our response, you have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) at ico.org.uk.
