Privacy notice
Effective 17 August 2026
Who we are
SME44 is a trading name of Rajoka Limited, registered in England & Wales, company number 12069067. Registered office: 64b Yardley Green Road, Birmingham, B9 5QE, United Kingdom. Rajoka Limited is the data controller for the processing described here. For anything in this notice, contact [email protected].
Data we hold about you, if you create an account
An account is an email address. There is no password: we sign you in by emailing a single-use link, which Supabase, our authentication provider, sends and verifies on our behalf. We use this data to operate your account and to gate the parts of the service that require sign-in. The lawful basis is the contract between us (UK GDPR Article 6(1)(b)).
We do not send marketing emails. If that ever changes, we will ask for your consent first rather than assuming it.
Cookies and local storage
This site sets no analytics, tracking or advertising cookies, and loads no third-party scripts. When you sign in, your session token is kept in your browser's local storage so you stay signed in between visits; this is strictly necessary for the service to work and is removed when you sign out. That is the complete list.
Data about other people: what the registers publish
The substance of SME44 is data from public registers: Companies House, HM Land Registry's Commercial and Corporate Ownership Data, and the licence registers of the Traffic Commissioners, the Environment Agency, the Care Quality Commission, Ofsted, the Food Standards Agency and the Home Office. Some of this is personal data, most notably the names, month and year of birth, nationality and country of residence of people with significant control, and the names of registered proprietors at HM Land Registry, all as filed with those registers.
We obtain this data from the registers, not from the individuals concerned, so this section is our notice to those individuals under UK GDPR Article 14. The lawful basis for displaying it is legitimate interests (Article 6(1)(f)): providing factual, source-attributed research information that is already published on statutory public registers, to people researching business ownership and succession. We display it as the registers state it, refresh it daily against the sources, and show when each fact was last checked. We add no commentary about any individual, and we do not enrich register data with information from anywhere else: no phone numbers, no personal email addresses, no social media.
If you appear in this data and object to our displaying it, email [email protected]. We will respond within one month. If the register itself is wrong, the correction needs to happen at Companies House or HM Land Registry, because we reflect what they publish. We will help you understand which source a fact came from.
Who processes data for us
Supabase provides authentication, Railway hosts the database and data pipeline, and Vercel hosts the website. Each acts as a processor under its standard data-protection terms. Processing may take place outside the UK under the safeguards in those terms.
How long we keep things
Account data is kept until you ask us to delete your account, which you can do by emailing [email protected] from your registered address. Register data is kept while it remains published by the source registers and relevant to the service.
Your rights
You have the rights UK GDPR gives you: access, rectification, erasure, restriction, objection and portability. Exercise any of them by emailing [email protected]. If you are unhappy with our answer, you can complain to the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk.
Changes
If this notice changes, the new version appears here with a new effective date. We do not change it retroactively.
