Interruptions And Omissions In This Service

Whilst we take every care to ensure that the standard of this web site remains high and to maintain the continuity of it, the Internet is not always a stable medium, and errors, omissions, interruptions of service and delays may occur at any time.

Data Protection

Harrison & Hardie takes the security and privacy of those of its contacts about which it holds personal information extremely seriously.

Personal Data is held on our database either because of work we have undertaken or are currently engaged in, or because our clients have indicated that they would be interested in receiving material from us about our business and services. To that end we hold client contact details and the history of our client relationship. This allows us to manage our client relationships effectively and target items of interest so that clients do not receive unwanted material through the post.

In accordance with their rights under the Act, clients may request the amendment of the personal information held or to cease receiving direct marketing materials.
