Lawful and proportionate
Compliance is part of the instruction
Tracing involves personal data. We require a legitimate purpose and enough information to conduct a proportionate search under UK data-protection law.
Appropriate purposes may include debt recovery, civil proceedings, tenancy or property matters, and service of legal documents. We may decline or pause a search where the purpose, lawful basis or proportionality cannot be established.
What we need to begin
- Subject’s full name
- Last known UK address, if available
- Date of birth or approximate age, if known
- Useful identifiers such as phone, email or move dates
- The lawful purpose for the trace
Personal, partner or family-law searches should normally be instructed through a solicitor or authorised legal representative.
Before you instruct
Debtor trace questions
Is a successful result guaranteed?
No. Data availability varies and people may move. We apply reasonable skill and care, explain material limitations and report the best supported result available at the time of search.
How quickly will I receive the report?
Our normal target is within seven working days after a complete instruction is accepted. Complex or data-sensitive cases may require longer, and we will explain this where relevant.
Can the result be used for process serving?
A verified address can help you progress service, but the correct method and address for service depend on the document and applicable procedural rules. We can also arrange professional process serving.
Can you provide telephone or email details?
Relevant contact indicators may be included where lawfully available, proportionate and within the agreed search level. They are not guaranteed.
What happens if you cannot confirm an address?
The report will explain the outcome and any limitations. Fees cover the investigation undertaken and are not dependent on a positive trace unless expressly agreed otherwise.
