Company
Specialist advice for carriers, operators and service providers
Wholesale voice is a business of thin margins and constant change. Rates move, routes degrade, destinations change their rules, and the details decide whether traffic makes money.
We work alongside telecom companies to review how they buy, sell and run their voice and numbering services, then help them act on what we find. Our work stays deliberately narrow, so the advice you get is specific to your routes, your suppliers and your customers.
Focused
We concentrate on three services and know them in depth, instead of covering the whole telecom stack thinly.
Practical
Recommendations come with priorities and next steps your commercial and technical teams can put to work.
Confidential
Rate sheets, supplier terms and traffic data stay between us and your team.

Privacy policy
Last updated: 5 November 2026
In short: we collect the details you send us through our contact form and the information we need to work with our clients. We use them to reply to you and to run our business, we never sell them, and you can ask us to see, correct or delete them at any time.
1. Who we are
London Telecom Consulting Ltd (“we”, “us”, “our”) is a company registered in England and Wales with company number 16870210. Our registered office and headquarters are at 30 Churchill Place, Canary Wharf, London E14 5RE, United Kingdom.
We are the controller of the personal data described in this policy. This means we decide how and why it is used, and we are responsible for looking after it under the UK General Data Protection Regulation (“UK GDPR”), the Data Protection Act 2018 and the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations 2003 (“PECR”), as amended, including by the Data (Use and Access) Act 2025.
You can contact us about this policy or your personal data:
through the contact form on our website, choosing the topic “Something else” and mentioning data protection in your message; or
by post to: Data Protection, London Telecom Consulting Ltd, 30 Churchill Place, Canary Wharf, London E14 5RE, United Kingdom.
2. Who this policy covers
This policy applies to personal data about:
visitors to our website;
people who contact us or ask us for a quote; and
individuals who work for our clients, prospective clients, suppliers and other business contacts.
Our services are provided to businesses. Our website is not intended for children and we do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 18.
3. The personal data we collect
Information you give us
Enquiry details: your name, company, work email address, phone number (optional), the topic of your enquiry and your message, plus anything else you choose to include.
Business relationship details: names, job titles, business contact details and correspondence of people we deal with at clients, prospective clients and suppliers, and records of the services we provide, quotes, contracts and invoices.
Information in materials clients share with us: when we provide consulting services, clients may share business records such as call detail records (CDRs), rate decks, routing data, supplier contracts or traffic reports. Some of these may contain personal data, such as telephone numbers. Where we handle that data only on a client’s behalf, the client is the controller and we act as its processor under our terms of business.
Information collected automatically
Technical data: when you visit our website, our hosting provider automatically records technical information in server logs, such as your IP address, browser type, the pages requested and the date and time of the request. When you submit our contact form, our form provider also receives your IP address and may use it, with your email address, to filter out spam.
Our website does not use analytics, advertising or tracking cookies. See our cookie policy.
We do not ask for, and ask you not to send us, special category data (such as information about health, ethnicity, religion or political opinions) or information about criminal convictions.
4. How we use your personal data and our lawful bases
We only use personal data where the law allows us to. The table below sets out what we use it for and the lawful basis we rely on under Article 6 of the UK GDPR.
Purpose
Lawful basis
Replying to your enquiry or quote request and following up on it
Our legitimate interests in responding to business enquiries and developing our business; or taking steps at your request before entering into a contract
Providing our consulting services and managing our relationship with clients and suppliers
Performance of a contract with you, or our legitimate interests where the contract is with the organisation you work for
Invoicing, accounting, tax and keeping company records
Compliance with our legal obligations
Keeping our website and systems secure and preventing spam, fraud and misuse
Our legitimate interests in protecting our business and website

Our legitimate interests in promoting our business, and only where PECR allows. You can opt out at any time and every message will tell you how.

Our legitimate interests in protecting our legal rights
Complying with requests from regulators, courts and law enforcement
Compliance with our legal obligations
Where we rely on legitimate interests, we have considered your rights and expectations and concluded that our interests are not overridden by them. You can ask us for more information about this balancing test.
You do not have to give us your personal data, but if you do not provide the details marked as required on our contact form, we will not be able to reply to your enquiry. We do not make decisions about you based solely on automated processing, including profiling, that produce legal or similarly significant effects.
5. Who we share your personal data with
We never sell your personal data. We share it only with:
Our contact form provider, Web3Forms (operated by Web3Creative), which receives submissions from our contact form, checks them for spam and delivers them to our inbox. It acts as our processor. Its spam checks may involve sending your IP address and email address to specialist anti-spam services.
Our IT and service providers, such as our website hosting, email and document storage providers, who process data on our behalf as processors under contracts that require them to keep it secure and use it only on our instructions.
Professional advisers, such as our accountants, lawyers, auditors and insurers, where necessary.
Authorities, such as HM Revenue & Customs, regulators, courts or the police, where we are required or permitted by law.
A buyer or successor, if we sell or transfer all or part of our business, in which case personal data may be transferred to the new owner on the same terms as this policy.
6. International transfers
Some of our service providers, including our contact form provider and its infrastructure providers, may process personal data outside the United Kingdom. Where personal data is transferred outside the UK, we make sure it is protected as UK data protection law requires: either the destination is covered by UK adequacy regulations (sometimes called a “data bridge”), or appropriate safeguards are in place, such as the International Data Transfer Agreement or the UK Addendum to the EU Standard Contractual Clauses issued under the UK GDPR. You can contact us for more information about the safeguards we use.
7. How long we keep your personal data
We keep personal data only for as long as we need it for the purposes described above, including to meet legal, accounting and reporting requirements.
Type of data
How long we keep it
Enquiries that do not lead to an engagement

Client materials processed on a client’s behalf
As set out in our contract with the client, after which they are deleted or returned

8. How we protect your personal data
We use appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against loss, misuse and unauthorised access. These include encrypted (HTTPS) connections to our website and contact form, access controls and passwords on our systems, and limiting access to people who need it. No method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, but if we become aware of a personal data breach we will act on it promptly and notify the Information Commissioner’s Office and affected individuals where the law requires us to.
9. Your rights
Under UK data protection law you have the right to:
access the personal data we hold about you and receive a copy of it;
ask us to correct personal data that is inaccurate or incomplete;
ask us to delete your personal data in certain circumstances;
ask us to restrict how we use your personal data in certain circumstances;
object to our use of your personal data where we rely on legitimate interests, and object at any time to direct marketing;
ask us to transfer personal data you have given us to you or another organisation in certain circumstances (data portability); and
withdraw consent at any time, where we rely on your consent.
To use any of these rights, contact us using the details in section 1. There is normally no charge. We may need to ask you for information to confirm your identity. We will respond within one month of receiving your request, which may be extended by up to two further months for complex requests, in which case we will tell you why. When responding to an access request, we will carry out a reasonable and proportionate search.
10. Complaints
If you are unhappy with how we have used your personal data, please tell us first so we can try to put it right. You can complain to us electronically through our contact form (choose “Something else” and mention that it is a data protection complaint) or by post to the address in section 1.
We will acknowledge your complaint within 30 days of receiving it, look into it properly, keep you updated, and tell you the outcome without undue delay.
You also have the right to complain to the UK’s data protection regulator, the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO): ico.org.uk/make-a-complaint, telephone 0303 123 1113. The ICO generally expects you to have raised your complaint with us first.

Cookie policy
Last updated: 5 November 2026
In short: our website does not use cookies for analytics, advertising or tracking, so we don’t need to ask for your consent and you won’t see a cookie banner.

tracking pixels or device fingerprinting.
Our fonts are hosted on our own website rather than loaded from a third-party font service, and our interactive globe runs entirely in your browser without storing anything on your device.

Hosting and security. Our hosting or security provider may set a cookie that is strictly necessary to keep the website secure or protect it from automated attacks. Strictly necessary cookies are exempt from consent under PECR. If such a cookie is in use, it does not track you across other websites.
External links. If you follow a link from our website to another website, that website may set its own cookies, which are governed by its own cookie policy.
4. Managing cookies

4.3 If our performance is prevented or delayed by any act or omission by you or your agents, subcontractors or employees (a “Client Default”), we will not be liable for any resulting costs, losses or delay, we may suspend the affected Services until the Client Default is remedied, and you will pay any reasonable costs we incur as a result.

6.2 You will reimburse reasonable expenses we properly incur in providing the Services, such as travel, where they are approved by you in advance.
6.3 All Fees and expenses are exclusive of VAT and any other applicable taxes, which you will pay in addition at the applicable rate.

7.2 Clause 7.1 does not apply to information that is or becomes publicly available other than through a breach of the Contract, that the receiving party already lawfully had, that it receives lawfully from a third party without a duty of confidence, or that it develops independently.
7.3 These obligations continue for 5 years after the Contract ends, or indefinitely for trade secrets.
8. Intellectual property
8.1 We and our licensors keep all Intellectual Property Rights in our methods, tools, templates, know-how and materials that existed before the Contract or are developed independently of it, and in the Deliverables.
8.2 Once you have paid the Fees for them in full, we grant you a non-exclusive, perpetual, royalty-free licence to use, copy and adapt the Deliverables for your internal business purposes. You may share Deliverables with your professional advisers and group companies on a confidential basis, but not otherwise with third parties without our written consent.
8.3 You keep all Intellectual Property Rights in the Client Materials. You grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to use the Client Materials for the term of the Contract for the purpose of providing the Services.
8.4 Nothing in the Contract prevents us from using general skills, knowledge and experience gained in providing the Services, provided we do not disclose your Confidential Information.
9. Data protection
9.1 Both parties will comply with the Data Protection Legislation. Each party is a separate controller of the business contact details of the other party’s personnel, which it will use to manage the Contract. Our privacy policy explains how we handle personal data.
9.2 Where Client Materials contain personal data (such as telephone numbers in call detail records) that we process on your behalf in providing the Services, you are the controller and we are your processor. The subject matter, nature and purpose of the processing is the performance of the Services; its duration is the term of the Contract; and the types of personal data and data subjects are those contained in the Client Materials. You will ensure you have a lawful basis for the processing and have given any notices needed to data subjects.
9.3 When acting as your processor, we will: (a) process the personal data only on your documented instructions, which are the Contract and your reasonable written instructions, unless the law requires otherwise, in which case we will tell you unless the law prohibits it; (b) ensure that people authorised to process it are bound by confidentiality; (c) take appropriate technical and organisational measures to keep it secure; (d) engage sub-processors only with your general written authorisation, which you give by entering into the Contract, telling you of any intended changes so you can object, and imposing on them data protection obligations equivalent to these; (e) not transfer it outside the UK unless the conditions for transfers under the Data Protection Legislation are met; (f) assist you, taking into account the nature of the processing, in responding to requests from data subjects and in meeting your obligations on security, breach notification, data protection impact assessments and consultation with the regulator; (g) notify you without undue delay after becoming aware of a personal data breach; (h) at your choice, delete or return the personal data at the end of the Services, unless the law requires us to keep it; and (i) make available the information reasonably needed to demonstrate our compliance with this clause and allow for and contribute to reasonable audits by you or your auditor on reasonable notice.
10. Limitation of liability
Please read this clause carefully.
10.1 Nothing in the Contract limits or excludes our liability for: (a) death or personal injury caused by our negligence; (b) fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; or (c) any other liability that cannot be limited or excluded by law.
10.2 Subject to clause 10.1, we will not be liable to you, whether in contract, tort (including negligence), breach of statutory duty or otherwise, for any: (a) loss of profits, revenue, sales or business; (b) loss of anticipated savings; (c) loss of agreements, contracts or business opportunity; (d) loss of or damage to goodwill or reputation; (e) loss or corruption of data or information; or (f) indirect or consequential loss.

10.4 Subject to clause 10.1, our total liability to you arising under or in connection with the Contract, whether in contract, tort (including negligence), breach of statutory duty or otherwise, is limited to the total Fees paid and payable under the Contract in the 12 months immediately before the event giving rise to the claim.
10.5 Except as set out in these terms, all warranties, conditions and other terms implied by statute or common law are, to the fullest extent permitted by law, excluded from the Contract.
10.6 This clause 10 continues to apply after the Contract ends.
11. Non-solicitation
11.1 During the Contract and for 12 months after it ends, you will not, without our prior written consent, directly or indirectly solicit or entice away, or employ or engage, any individual who has been employed or engaged by us in providing the Services. This does not prevent you from hiring someone who responds to a general advertisement not targeted at our personnel.
12. Term and termination
12.1 The Contract continues until the Services are completed, unless terminated earlier under this clause.
12.2 Either party may terminate the Contract by giving the other at least 30 days’ written notice, unless the Proposal states otherwise.
12.3 Either party may terminate the Contract with immediate effect by written notice if the other party: (a) commits a material breach that is irremediable, or is not remedied within 14 days of being notified of it in writing; or (b) becomes insolvent, enters administration, liquidation or any arrangement with its creditors, has a receiver appointed, or stops or threatens to stop carrying on business.
12.4 We may terminate the Contract with immediate effect by written notice if you fail to pay any amount due within 14 days of a written reminder.
12.5 On termination for any reason, you will pay all unpaid invoices and, for Services provided but not yet invoiced, we will submit an invoice that you will pay immediately on receipt. Clauses that are intended to continue after termination, including clauses 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 14 and 15, will continue in force. Termination does not affect rights and remedies that have accrued by that time.
13. Events outside our control
13.1 Neither party is in breach of the Contract or liable for any delay or failure in performing its obligations (other than payment obligations) caused by events beyond its reasonable control, including acts of God, flood, fire, pandemic, war, terrorism, civil unrest, government action, failure of public utilities or telecommunications networks, or cyber attack. The affected party will notify the other promptly and use reasonable efforts to limit the effects. If such an event continues for more than 60 days, either party may terminate the Contract by written notice.
14. General
14.1Assignment and subcontracting. You may not assign or transfer any of your rights or obligations under the Contract without our prior written consent. We may subcontract any part of the Services, but we remain responsible for the work of our subcontractors.
14.2Notices. Notices under the Contract must be in writing and sent by email or post to the addresses set out in the Proposal or as otherwise notified. A notice sent by email is treated as received at 9.00 am on the next Business Day after sending; a notice sent by first-class post is treated as received on the second Business Day after posting.
14.3Entire agreement. The Contract is the entire agreement between the parties about its subject matter and replaces all previous agreements, promises, assurances and understandings. Each party agrees that it has not relied on any statement, representation or warranty not set out in the Contract. Nothing in this clause limits liability for fraud.
14.4Variation. No variation of the Contract is effective unless it is in writing and agreed by both parties.
14.5Waiver. A failure or delay in exercising any right or remedy does not waive it, and a single or partial exercise does not prevent its further exercise.
14.6Severance. If any provision of the Contract is found to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, it will be treated as modified to the minimum extent needed to make it valid, or, if that is not possible, deleted, without affecting the rest of the Contract.
14.7Independent contractors. Nothing in the Contract creates a partnership, joint venture or relationship of employer and employee or principal and agent between the parties.
14.8Third party rights. No one other than a party to the Contract has any right to enforce any of its terms under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999.
14.9Anti-bribery. Each party will comply with the Bribery Act 2010 in connection with the Contract.
14.10Changes to these terms. We may update these terms from time to time. The version in force when the Contract is formed applies to that Contract unless both parties agree otherwise in writing.
15. Disputes, governing law and jurisdiction
15.1 If a dispute arises, the parties will first try to resolve it by referring it to a senior representative of each party, who will meet (in person or remotely) within 15 Business Days to try to settle it in good faith. This does not prevent either party from seeking urgent injunctive or other interim relief.
15.2 The Contract, and any dispute or claim (including non-contractual disputes or claims) arising out of or in connection with it or its subject matter or formation, is governed by and construed in accordance with the law of England and Wales.
15.3 Each party irrevocably agrees that the courts of England and Wales have exclusive jurisdiction to settle any dispute or claim (including non-contractual disputes or claims) arising out of or in connection with the Contract or its subject matter or formation.
