Privacy Policy

Your privacy is our priority. Learn how we protect and handle your personal information.

Last updated: 25 October 2026

1. Overview

What This Policy Covers

This Privacy Policy explains how UK Prenup ("we," "our," or "us") collects, uses, protects, and shares your personal information when you use our prenuptial agreement services. We are committed to protecting your privacy and complying with all applicable UK data protection laws, including the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018.

About UK Prenup

UK Prenup provides a prenuptial agreement service in England & Wales. We help couples document how their assets and debts will be divided before they marry, through our secure online platform: we prepare the agreement from your answers and arrange independent legal advice from solicitors at independent law firms on our panel. UK Prenup is not a law firm and does not give legal advice itself; the advice comes from the solicitor acting for each of you.

Two logins, one agreement

  • Each partner has their own login. Both logins link to one shared agreement. There is no joint login.
  • The partner who buys the service and starts the agreement (Party 1) confirms their partner's email address and sends the invitation, after verifying their own email address.
  • The invitation lets the invited partner (Party 2) do one thing: prove they own that email address by entering a 6-digit code we send to it. They then answer "Is this you?", read their own short terms and the notice for invited partners, and set up their own login. No password is needed. The invitation link then stops working for good, and it never opens the agreement itself.
  • After that, each of you signs in separately. Neither of you can sign in as the other, and Party 1 cannot resend, redirect or change Party 2's login or email address.
  • Some steps matter in law, and each of you takes them yourself, from your own login, after a fresh sign-in check if you haven't signed in recently: accepting terms, confirming the agreement, recording advice or a decision not to take it, inviting your partner and recording a signing. We record each step against the person who took it.
  • Some things are shared between you: the agreement and its versions, the finances it records, the changes asked for and the answers, a neutral progress line and the signing status. Everything else is private to the person it belongs to, including your legal advice, your login details, your sign-in history, and the IP address and device details recorded with each step. Our server decides what each person can see.
  • Each of you can download your own information, and close your own account, from Settings. Closing one partner's account never deletes the other partner's copy or the shared record (section 9).

Questions, requests and complaints

You can make a complaint, or a data protection request, using our complaints and requests form, which works without signing in, or by emailing contact@ukprenup.com. We reply within one month.

2. Information We Collect

We collect the following information to prepare prenuptial agreement documents, provide our services, and comply with legal requirements:

Personal Information

  • Full name of each partner
  • Date of birth
  • Email address (to send documents and service communications)
  • Home address (for document preparation and delivery, if selected)
  • Phone number (optional, for contact if needed)
  • The dates you record for signing your agreement, and the version you signed (you sign the printed agreement yourselves; we do not collect your signatures or hold a copy of your signed agreement)

Both Partners' & Financial Data

  • Each partner's full name, date of birth, and address
  • Financial disclosure details, including assets, debts, and income, that each partner chooses to include
  • Witness details (if required) – you must ensure the witness has consented to their data being shared with us
  • Details of any intended date of marriage or other supporting information, where applicable

Payment Information

  • Billing address
  • Transaction records
  • Payment method type (e.g. credit/debit card, PayPal)
  • Invoice information
Note: All card payments are processed securely by our payment provider (Stripe). We do not store card details on our servers.

Technical Information

  • IP address and general location
  • Browser type, device, and operating system
  • Website usage and session data (e.g. pages visited, time spent)
  • Cookies and user preferences (see our Cookies section for more detail)

3. Financial Disclosure Data

We take special care when handling the financial disclosure information that each partner shares as part of a prenuptial agreement. This section explains how we collect, use, and protect this data when providing our prenuptial agreement service.

What Data We Collect

  • Each Partner's Information: Full name, date of birth, and address
  • Financial Details: Assets, debts, income, and property each partner chooses to disclose
  • Signing records: The signing dates each partner records, and the version of the agreement they record signing. We do not hold a copy of your signed agreement.
  • Supporting Records: Documentation each partner provides to support their disclosure
  • Witness Information: Details of witnesses (when required). You must ensure your chosen witness has consented to their details being provided to us.

Who Provides the Data

  • Each partner provides their own information and the disclosure they choose to make.
  • Both partners confirm and sign the agreement before marriage.
  • Witnesses provide their own details when acting in that role.
  • The solicitor advising a partner records their advice session with us (when it was held, and whether they certified the agreement), and may give that partner an advice letter through us.
  • In some cases, information may also come via an independent legal adviser instructed by a partner.

Information You Provide About Your Partner

The person who starts the agreement (Party 1) gives us only three things about their partner (Party 2): their name, the email address their invitation goes to, and their date of birth, which we ask Party 2 for again when they set up their login, to check the invitation reached the right person. Party 1 does not give us Party 2's address, occupation, income, assets or debts: Party 2 adds those themselves, from their own login. Where you provide information about your partner:

  • We process it to create the prenuptial agreement you have both decided to enter into, and to invite your partner (performance of a contract and our legitimate interest in providing the service).
  • By submitting it, you confirm that your partner is aware you are creating the agreement and agrees to you giving us their name, email address and date of birth.
  • The completed agreement contains both partners' details and is made available to both of you, each in your own account, so each partner has a copy to review and sign. Your partner is told what you gave us about them, and can check and correct it. The independent solicitor firms advising you and your partner receive it too (see section 6).
  • Your partner is a data subject in their own right and may contact us at any time to access, correct, or request erasure of their information, or to object to its processing.

The Record of Each Step

Each of you takes the important steps from your own login: your partner sets up their login from their invitation and accepts their own terms, and either of you may confirm the agreement, ask for changes, record your own legal advice or a decision not to take it, invite your partner or record a signing. For each step we keep a record of:

  • the date and time, and how recently that login signed in;
  • the login that took it, and the email address it had then;
  • the IP address and the browser (user-agent) details of the device used;
  • the version of the agreement and the wording shown; and
  • what was given at that step, such as the confirmations ticked or the terms version accepted.

Legal Basis for Processing

  • Performance of a Contract – to provide the prenuptial agreement service you request
  • Legal Obligation – to comply with applicable record-keeping laws
  • Consent – clear consent from each partner to process their financial disclosure information

How We Use Financial Disclosure Data

  • To prepare prenuptial agreement documents for both partners
  • To reflect each partner's disclosure accurately in the agreement
  • To confirm each partner's identity and eligibility
  • To communicate with both partners about the service
  • To maintain legal and administrative records

Safeguards

  • Financial disclosure data is encrypted in transit and at rest
  • Access is restricted to designated staff only
  • Data is not used for marketing or profiling purposes
  • Financial disclosure data is securely deleted once no longer required

6. Information Sharing

Our Privacy Commitment

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties for marketing purposes. We share it only with the people who need it to make your agreement: your partner, the independent solicitor firms advising each of you, and the service providers below, and always with appropriate safeguards in place.

Independent Solicitor Firms on Our Panel

Who They Are and What They Receive

Independent legal advice on our packages is given by independent, regulated family-law solicitors on the UK Prenup panel. On the £750 package a panel solicitor advises Party 1; on the £1,300 package a solicitor at a different firm also advises Party 2.

  • Each solicitor receives the agreement in each version, both partners' financial disclosure, and both partners' details as the agreement sets them out (names, dates of birth, addresses, occupations and incomes).
  • Each solicitor receives their own client's email address and phone number, to arrange the advice session. Party 2's solicitor receives Party 2's only once Party 2 has confirmed their own details.
  • A solicitor never receives the other partner's email address or phone number, and never sees the other partner's advice.

Why, and on What Basis

So the solicitor can advise their client on what the agreement means and whether it is in their interests, check their client's identity, and sign the certificate of independent legal advice. Our legal basis is the contract for the service (UK GDPR Article 6(1)(b)) and the legitimate interests of both partners and of UK Prenup in an agreement made with independent advice (Article 6(1)(f)).

Each Firm Is Responsible for What It Receives

Each firm is a separate controller of the information it receives. It must keep its client's affairs confidential under the SRA's rules, uses the information under its own privacy notice and client-care terms, and keeps its own file for as long as its own rules require.

Each partner's advice is private to them and their own solicitor: their bookings, sessions, which solicitor advises them and the outcome. The other partner, and the other partner's solicitor, see at most whether that partner's advice step is complete. The final agreement includes each solicitor's signed certificate, so it shows who advised each of you.

A firm's access to a matter on our adviser site ends 90 days after both partners have recorded signing the agreement, unless it is changed after that.

The firms on our panel

We name each firm here before it advises anyone. The firm advising you is also named in your account, and in the email that tells you about it, once it is allocated to you.

Which firm advises each partner is private to that partner until the final agreement, which both of you sign, includes each solicitor's signed certificate page.

7. Data Security

We implement comprehensive security measures to protect your personal information from unlawful access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.

Technical Safeguards

  • TLS 1.3 encryption for data transmission
  • AES-256 encryption for data at rest
  • Each partner has their own login, with sign-in by a one-time code sent to their email address; there is no shared login
  • A fresh sign-in check before the important steps, if you haven't signed in recently
  • Two-step sign-in (an authenticator app) required for the panel solicitors' site
  • No email contains a link that opens your agreement without signing in, and every view and download is logged
  • Regular security updates and patches
  • Intrusion detection and monitoring
  • Automated backup systems in secure locations

Access Controls

  • Role-based access and principle of least privilege
  • Regular access reviews
  • Employee security training
  • Secure development practices and data breach response procedures

Compliance & Auditing

  • Periodic security assessments, penetration testing, and vulnerability scanning
  • Security incident logging and monitoring
  • Compliance monitoring and third-party security audits where applicable

Data Protection

  • Secure cloud infrastructure with geographically distributed backups
  • Data loss prevention and secure data disposal procedures
  • Privacy by design and data minimisation principles

Financial Disclosure Data

Financial disclosure data shared by each partner is subject to the same technical and organisational safeguards as all other personal data.

Security Breach Notification

In the unlikely event of a data breach that poses a risk to your rights and freedoms, we will notify affected users without undue delay, and in any case within 72 hours where required by UK GDPR. We will also notify the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) as legally required.

8. Data Retention

We retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this privacy policy and to comply with legal obligations.

Data Type Retention Period Reason for Retention
Prenuptial Agreement Records Not deleted automatically: our lawyer is setting the period Either of you may need to show what was agreed, what each of you disclosed and that each of you acted freely. This covers the final agreement, every version issued (with the version code and status printed on it), the finances it relied on, and the changes asked for and made. We do not hold your signed original. Before we delete an agreement, we tell both partners and email each of you a final copy, 30 days before.
Partner Confirmation Record As long as the agreement Kept with the agreement records (the record of each step, section 3) as evidence of how and when each of you took each step. It is deleted only with the agreement itself, never on its own, and never because one partner closes their account
Unpaid Agreement Drafts 28 days after you started So you can come back and complete payment without entering your answers again. A draft is kept a little longer only while a payment for it may still be on its way, so that we never take a payment for an agreement we have deleted.
Matters That End Before Signing Reduced 90 days after the matter closes If an agreement is declined, withdrawn, cancelled or abandoned before you both sign it, we remove Party 2's phone number (and Party 2's email address if they never joined). The rest is kept as an agreement record, above, for refunds, complaints and possible disputes
Advice Session Records As long as the agreement Kept with the agreement records as evidence that each partner was advised (when, by which panel solicitor, on which version), and to pay the firms. Each panel firm keeps its own file under its own rules, and its access on our adviser site ends 90 days after both partners have recorded signing. If you close your account, our copies of your own advice letters are deleted; the record that advice was given stays
Payment Records 7 years HMRC requirements for tax and accounting purposes. If an agreement is deleted, we keep only the payment facts (date, amount, package and payment reference)
Account Information Until you close your account; an account that holds no agreement is deleted 3 years after you last sign in To keep your access to your agreement and provide support. Closing your account deletes your login straight away; the record of each step keeps the email address your login had at the time
Website Analytics 26 months Standard Google Analytics retention for service improvement
Support Communications 3 years Quality assurance and training purposes. The IP address and browser details sent with a contact-form message are cleared after 12 months
Complaints and Data Protection Requests 3 years after we close them To show how we handled them
Marketing Choices Until you close your account To honour your communication preferences, with the date and time of each choice

Deleting your data

We delete or reduce personal data when it is no longer needed for the purposes described in this policy and the retention periods above have passed. Before we delete a paid prenuptial agreement, we will tell both partners and email each of you a final copy of the agreement at the verified address on your account. Before we close an account that holds one, we email that partner a final copy. If you placed your order before 21 October 2026, we will not delete your agreement without first giving you notice and emailing you a final copy. If either of you, a solicitor or a court tells us of a dispute or proceedings, we keep the matter until that is resolved. You can also ask us to delete information earlier, subject to any legal, accounting or regulatory obligations that require us to keep certain records for longer.

Each panel firm keeps its own file for as long as its own rules require.

9. Your Rights

Under UK GDPR, you have several important rights regarding your personal data. You can exercise these rights at any time by contacting us.

Right of Access

Request a copy of all personal data we hold about you, including how we use it and who we share it with.

  • Free of charge
  • Response within 1 month
  • Secure delivery method (identity verification may be required)

Right of Rectification

Ask us to correct any inaccurate or incomplete personal information.

  • Immediate correction of records
  • Notification to third parties where relevant

Right to Erasure

Request deletion of your personal data in certain circumstances.

  • Subject to legal obligations (some data may be retained for legal, tax, or fraud prevention purposes)
  • Secure data destruction
  • Confirmation of deletion

Right to Restrict Processing

Request limitation on how we use your personal data in specific situations, such as verifying accuracy.

  • Limited processing only
  • Storage continues
  • Notification to you when restriction lifted

Right to Data Portability

Receive your data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format.

  • Transfer to another service provider
  • No charge applied

Right to Object

Object to processing based on legitimate interests (e.g., analytics) or direct marketing.

  • Marketing communications will stop immediately upon objection
  • Processing review performed if based on legitimate interests

Both Partners' Rights: How a Shared Agreement Affects Them

The agreement, its versions, the finances each of you submitted and the record of each step are about both of you, and each of you may rely on them. So:

  • Copies. "Download my information" gives you the shared records and your own private records. It leaves out your partner's private records, such as their advice, login details, IP addresses and private messages, unless they agree or the law requires it.
  • Corrections. You can correct your own details. After Party 2 joins, only Party 2 can correct Party 2's details. Changes to the terms go through the change process, because both of you must confirm each version.
  • Deletion. We keep the final agreement, the finances it relied on and the record of each step for the period in section 8, even if one partner asks us to delete them, because either of you may need them to establish, exercise or defend legal claims (UK GDPR Article 17(3)(e)). Closing your account deletes your login, your marketing choices, your phone number and email address on the order, and our copies of your own advice letters. One partner closing their account never deletes the other partner's copy or access.
  • Objections. If Party 2 objects to our use of what Party 1 entered about them, they can correct or replace it, or tell us using the form below.

How to Exercise Your Rights

  • In your account: go to Settings to download your information ("Download my information"), close your account, and choose whether you get our reminders.
  • Without signing in: use our complaints and requests form, or email contact@ukprenup.com. This includes an invited partner who has not set up a login.

We do not charge. We may need to confirm who you are, for example by sending a code to the email address we hold. We reply within one month; if a request is complex we may take up to two more months, and we will tell you why within the first month.

Right to Complain

If you are unhappy with how we have handled your information, please tell us first using our complaints form, which works without signing in, or by emailing contact@ukprenup.com. We will acknowledge your complaint within 30 days and tell you the outcome without undue delay. If your complaint is about how a panel firm handled your information, please contact the firm, which is responsible for it.

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the UK's data protection authority at any time:

Information Commissioner's Office (ICO)

  • Website: ico.org.uk
  • Phone: 0303 123 1113
  • Post: Wycliffe House, Water Lane, Wilmslow, Cheshire SK9 5AF
