LEGAL, REGULATION & COMPLIANCE

  • Rare Property & Design Ltd is a limited company registered in England under company number 15806360.

    Our business and the way we deliver our services complies with all legislative, statutory and regulatory standards and requirements, and we are committed to running an ethical and legally sound business.

    While we are not regulated in the same way as registered housing providers, local authorities, and charities, through our extensive experience in the sector we have a strong understanding of their regulatory requirements. As a business committed to high ethical standards, and in recognition of the valued work we do with registered housing providers, local authorities, and charities, we voluntarily align ourselves with their principles when working with them and their customers. 

  • We take cybersecurity seriously, and take proactive steps to keep our systems and databases safe, and protect our clients’ data. We use antivirus and security software, firewall security, smart technology, controlled system access, encrypted wi-fi networks, authentication services, and other methods to maintain a strong line of defence against any cybersecurity threats.

  • We are fully insured with reputable insurance companies, and with the right coverage in place to protect us as a business and our clients as consumers. We hold Professional Indemnity Insurance, Public Liability Insurance, and Employers Liability Insurance.

  • Under the General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016 (GDPR), we have a legal duty to protect any information we collect from you. We take this duty seriously, and are committed to keeping your information safe and staying compliant with the law. To learn more about how we collect, keep, and process your private information, please view our privacy policy. This policy is up to date for 2024 and will be reviewed again in 2025.

  • Our business does not currently meet the threshold for the reporting obligations under the Modern Slavery Act (MSA) 2015, and we are not required to publish a modern slavery and human trafficking statement. However, in our commitment to preventing slavery and human trafficking - and as we work with businesses and organisations who do have legal obligations, we voluntarily align ourselves with the principles of the MSA and ensure our suppliers and partners also comply with these values.  

    Our small team of industry experts are all UK based, with the legal right to work in the UK. As a responsible employer, we pay fairly, limit working hours for a healthy work life balance, and provide a safe and thriving work environment.

    Our policies, pledges and voluntary commitments make a firm stance on our high ethical standards. Our commitment to ethical practices, commitment to equity, equality and social justice, and our protecting people and staying safe policies help ensure that our clients, the team, suppliers and partners are safe, and that the team, suppliers and partners are also contributing to the safety of others. There is simply no hiding place within Rare for people who aren’t aligned to these standards.

    As an SME we have a relatively small supply chain as much of our delivery is completed in-house. When working with suppliers and partners, who are all UK based, we have a robust process in place to ensure that our values are shared, and that we are aligned on our commitment to legal and ethical standards as well as quality and performance. The advantage of a relatively small supply chain is that we have strong oversight at every step of the relationship, and our due diligence at the start of the relationship and ongoing risk assessments, close monitoring, and regular reviews, considerably reduces the risk of unlawful or immoral activity happening in our supply chain. We won’t work with any suppliers or partners who don’t comply with our values or the law, and we would terminate any relationship that breached this on any level.
