This Privacy Policy describes how Unwritten collects, uses and discloses information associated with an identified or identifiable individual (referred to in this Privacy Policy as "Personal Data") and what choices you have around this activity. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact us.
When we refer to "Unwritten", "the Company", "We", "Us" or "Our", we mean Orderly Transition Limited, as explained in more detail in the "Identifying the Data Controller and Processor" section below.
ON THIS PAGE
This Privacy Policy applies to Unwritten's climate and nature risk intelligence platform, including any associated applications (collectively, the "Services"), unwritten.co and any other Unwritten websites (collectively, the "Websites"), and other interactions you may have with Unwritten (e.g. customer support enquiries, events, etc.). If you do not agree with this Privacy Policy, do not access or use the Services, Websites, or any other aspect of Unwritten's business. For the avoidance of doubt, this is the only privacy policy that applies to Unwritten.
A separate agreement governs delivery, access and use of the Services (the "Customer Agreement"), including the processing of portfolio company, asset, climate and nature datasets submitted through Services accounts (collectively, "Customer Data"). The organisation that entered into the Customer Agreement (the "Customer" — typically your employer) controls its instance of the Services (its "Workspace") and any associated Customer Data. If you have questions about a specific Workspace's settings or privacy practices, please contact the Customer whose Workspace you use, rather than Unwritten directly, as we act as a processor of that data on the Customer's behalf and follow the Customer's instructions.
This Privacy Policy governs "Other Information" — Personal Data that Unwritten collects and controls directly, such as data about visitors to our Websites and about individuals ("Authorised Users") who register for or use the Services. Unwritten is the controller of Other Information.
Unwritten collects and receives information through operating the Services and Websites, and through other interactions with Unwritten. This includes Customer Data (described above) and the following categories of Other Information:
We do not intentionally collect Special Category Data (e.g. data revealing health, religion, or biometric information) and ask that You do not submit it to Us unless specifically requested.
Customer Data is used by Unwritten in accordance with a Customer's instructions, the Customer Agreement, and as required by applicable law. Unwritten is a processor of Customer Data; the Customer is the controller.
Unwritten uses Other Information for the following purposes and legal bases under the UK GDPR and, where relevant, the EU GDPR:
Performance of a contract:
We process Account information and Usage information to provide, operate and maintain the Service, and to perform Our contract with You or Your employer.
Compliance with a legal obligation:
We process Other Information where necessary to comply with a legal obligation, including responding to valid requests from regulators or law enforcement.
Legitimate interests:
We rely on Our legitimate interests, or those of a third party, where they are not outweighed by Your interests or fundamental rights ("legitimate interests"). We use Account information, Usage information, Cookie information and additional information provided to Unwritten for the following legitimate interests:
In narrow, specified circumstances (such as safeguarding or crime prevention), We may also rely on the "recognised legitimate interests" basis introduced by the DUAA, which does not require a balancing test.
Consent:
We rely on Your consent to send marketing emails and other promotional communications about new features, product updates or events. You may withdraw consent and opt out of these at any time.
This section describes how Unwritten may share and disclose Other Information. Customers determine their own policies for sharing Customer Data with third parties; Unwritten does not control how a Customer chooses to share or disclose it.
We do not sell Other Information for monetary consideration.
Unwritten retains Other Information for as long as necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including to provide the Service, provide customer support, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce Our agreements.
The security of Personal Data is important to Us. We use technical and organisational measures designed to protect Other Information from loss, misuse and unauthorised access or disclosure, taking into account the sensitivity of the information and the current state of technology. Given the nature of internet-based communication, We cannot guarantee that information will be absolutely secure from intrusion by others.
The Service is intended for business professionals and is not directed at, nor knowingly used to collect Personal Data from, anyone younger than 18. If We learn We have inadvertently collected such data, We will delete it.
Unwritten may change this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect evolving laws, regulations, industry standards, or changes to Our Services or business. We will post changes to this page and update the "Effective" date above. If We make changes that materially alter Your privacy rights, We will provide additional notice, such as via email.
Your Personal Data may be transferred to countries other than the one in which You live, including the United States, where Our Service Providers are located.
If You are in the UK. Under the UK GDPR, You have the right to access, correct, or delete Your Personal Data; restrict or object to processing; request data portability; and not be subject to decisions based solely on automated processing that significantly affect You — except in specified circumstances now permitted under Articles 22A–22D of the UK GDPR (introduced by the DUAA), subject to safeguards including a right to human review. Where We rely on legitimate interests to process Your Personal Data, You can object by contacting Us as described in "Contacting Unwritten" below.
You also have a statutory right, effective from 19 June 2026, to complain directly to Us about how We handle Your Personal Data (see "Contacting Unwritten").
If You are in the EEA or elsewhere. You have equivalent rights under the EU GDPR or other applicable law requiring a legal basis for processing, and may object to processing based on Our legitimate interests, or to direct marketing, at any time.
This section provides additional detail for residents of California and other US states with comprehensive consumer privacy laws.
In addition to the information described above under "Information we collect and receive", We may collect the following categories of personal information for Our business purposes: identifiers/contact information; commercial information; internet or electronic network activity information; professional or employment-related information; and inferences drawn from the above.
Subject to certain conditions, You may have the right to request to know what personal information We hold, to delete or correct it, to opt out of any "sale" or "sharing," to limit the use of sensitive personal information, and not to be discriminated against for exercising these rights. Note that CCPA/CPRA's earlier exemptions for business-to-business and employment-related personal information expired on 1 January 2023, so professional contact details of a Customer's staff are within scope of these laws.
To make a request, contact Us at the details in "Contacting Unwritten" below. We will verify Your request using information associated with Your account and respond within the timeframe required by applicable law. You may also designate an authorised agent to act on Your behalf.
Subject to applicable law, You have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority if You believe We have not adequately addressed your concern. If You are located in the European Economic Area, You may find your appropriate authority via the European Data Protection Board. If You are a resident of the United Kingdom, You may contact the UK regulator, the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) — currently being restructured into the "Information Commission" under the DUAA.
Please contact Unwritten if You have any questions about this Privacy Policy or Our practices, or if You are seeking to exercise any of Your statutory rights. We will respond within a reasonable timeframe.
