CYTELUK, as a Controller, is committed to protecting our customers’ Personal Data in full compliance with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the UK Data Protection Act 2018, as amended by the Data Protection and Digital Information Act 2024.
CYTELUK and its commercial partners — including Digital Wholesale Solutions, Cerberus, Voicehost, Elavon, Bottom Line Technologies, IM Primus, Net Lynk and P&J (acting as Processors) — maintain records of residential customers’ personal data for the purposes of providing, operating and maintaining electronic communication services and/or products offered to them by CYTELUK.

CYTELUK may also process certain personal data based on legitimate interests (for example, fraud prevention, service security, or quality assurance) where those interests are balanced with the rights and freedoms of the customer.
