Who we are
Accountants for GPs is a trading style of Buzz Accounting Ltd, registered in England and Wales, company number 15182358, VAT registration number GB481 882 554. You can reach us at hello@accountantsforgps.co.uk.
What we collect, and why
If you send the contact form we receive your name, email address, the practice you work in and whatever you write. If you become a client we hold what we need to do the work and to meet our own obligations — accounting records, identity documents for anti-money-laundering checks, partner personal tax data, and payroll data where we run your payroll.
We do not ask for, receive or process patient identifiable information. Superannuation certificates, contract statements and practice accounts are financial records about the practice and its partners, not about patients. Please do not send us anything containing patient data; if it reaches us by accident we will tell you and delete it.
Our lawful bases
- Contract — doing the work you engaged us to do.
- Legal obligation — anti-money-laundering checks, and the records HMRC and Companies House require.
- Legitimate interests — replying to an enquiry you sent us.
Who else sees it
Our software providers, as processors. HMRC and Companies House where we file for you. NHSBSA where we submit a superannuation certificate on your behalf and you have asked us to. Nobody else, and we do not sell data.
