When you submit a Tenant Passport through Letfold, you are providing personal information to the letting agent who invited you. Letfold stores your information securely and makes it available to that letting agent. We do not sell your data, share it with advertisers, or use it for any purpose other than delivering the platform to your letting agent.
The letting agent who invited you to complete a Tenant Passport is the data controller for your personal information. They decide what information to collect and how long to keep it. ONE CONNECT LONDON LTD (Letfold) is the data processor — we store and process your data only on the letting agent's instructions.
If you have questions about how the letting agent uses your data, you should contact them directly. For questions about how Letfold stores or handles your data technically, contact [email protected].

The letting agent collects this information to assess your suitability as a tenant, carry out legal Right to Rent checks, reference checks, and credit checks where applicable, prepare a tenancy agreement, and manage your tenancy. Letfold processes it only to provide the platform to the letting agent.
Your Tenant Passport data is visible to the letting agent and their authorised staff. Letfold staff access is restricted to what is needed for platform support and security. Your data is not shared with other letting agents, advertisers, or third parties except as required by the letting agent's instructions or by law.
The letting agent determines how long your data is retained. Letfold retains data for the life of the letting agent's subscription and for 90 days after cancellation. After that period all data is permanently deleted. Ask the letting agent for their own data retention policy.
Under UK data protection law you have rights including the right to access your data, correct inaccurate data, request erasure, restrict processing, and object to processing. Because the letting agent is the data controller, you should contact them directly to exercise most rights. For technical matters relating to Letfold's processing, contact [email protected]. You may also complain to the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk.
Your data is encrypted at rest and in transit. Access is controlled. Daily encrypted backups are stored off-server in Western Europe. Report any security concern to [email protected].
