Rules and practice
Considerations that shape UK software projects
| Consideration | Why it matters | What it means for the build |
|---|---|---|
| UK data protection | Personal data is governed by UK data protection law, which is based on the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), together with the Data Protection Act 2018. The regulator is the Information Commissioner's Office. | We build for lawful handling, access requests, limited retention, and clear records of what is held and why. |
| Moving data between the UK and elsewhere | Transfers of personal data out of the UK carry conditions, and so do transfers from the European Economic Area into it. | We record where data is stored and processed, and choose hosting regions to match. |
| Digital tax records | Many businesses must keep and submit certain tax records digitally, for example for value added tax. | We connect sales and invoicing systems to accounting software so records flow without re-typing. |
| Accessibility | Public bodies must meet accessibility standards, and private organizations are expected to serve all users. | We build to the web accessibility guidelines and test with assistive technology. |
Treat these as prompts for a conversation with your adviser, not as legal advice.
The market
What UK buyers tend to ask for
UK organizations range from startups in the technology sector to long-established firms in finance, professional services, retail, and the public and charitable sectors. Requests we see most often are portals and internal tools, connections between systems, automation of repetitive work, and modernizing older systems.
Buyers value clear scope and plain pricing, and often want a first stage they can judge before committing further. We work that way: a defined first piece, reviewed with you, then extended.
Because the UK sits in a single time zone with long overlap with Europe, communication is usually straightforward. For teams in other time zones we agree meeting times at the start.
Systems in use
Payments, banking, and accounting in the UK
Cards and bank payments
Cards are the usual online route, with bank transfers through the UK's faster payment and bulk payment systems for invoices and payroll-style payments.
Open banking
The UK has an established open banking framework that lets, with consent, an application read account data or start a payment. It suits payment, reconciliation, and affordability tools.
Accounting software
Small and mid-sized businesses commonly use cloud accounting packages. We connect orders, invoices, and payments to the one you use.
Customer and marketing systems
HubSpot and Salesforce are widely used. See connecting customer systems.
Cloud hosting
AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud all offer UK regions, which matters for data location.
Online stores
Shopify and WooCommerce stores connected to UK shipping and tax.

Common questions
Questions from UK organizations
Do you have a UK office?
No. DECHY is a global company that works remotely with clients worldwide. We arrange calls at times that suit your team.
Will our data stay in the UK?
It can. We choose hosting regions to match your requirements and write down where data is stored and processed.
Can you work with public-sector buyers?
Public bodies have their own procurement rules and often buy through frameworks. Tell us about the project and we will say whether and how we can take part.
Are your systems accessible?
Accessibility is part of how we build and test every screen, not a later add-on.
Have a different question?
