We use two methods for sending marketing, newsletters and status / product updates…

MailChimp – We use MailChimp to contact customers regarding status updates, product announcements or general marketing. Our mailing list is generated on the basis that you have registered to our site, via https://client.brixly.uk. Upon registering, you automatically become enrolled in our Marketing List via MailChimp. Of course, you can choose to remove yourself from our listing by clicking ‘unsubscribe’ within the email received. Once unsubscribed, we will no longer contact you via our MailChimp marketing.

WHMCS / Client Portal – We may from time to time contact you via our client area – by using our service, you agree to be contacted via this method however you will not be sent anything for ‘general marketing’ – as such, we retain the right to contact you for the purposes of status updates etc.

 

Formal Data Request:

With this legislation comes the ability for a customer/client to request this data. Requesting your data is a very simple process that only takes a few seconds, just click the button below;
