We only hold these details for this purpose and you can request to stop receiving communications from Attain at any time. For example, for people who subscribe to our digital services, we need to hold their name and email address, plus role and organisation.

We do store statistics from our digital services, as part of the service offered by our email newsletter provider, such as the number of emails delivered, if they are opened and any clicks, using internet technologies such as pixels and web beacons.
