Who I am

What personal data I collect and why I collect it
I collect the personal information you give me when you complete my online contact form. This includes name, email address, phone number & your query. I collect this information so that I can contact you to respond to your query. The lawful basis for processing this data is ‘consent’: You have given me clear consent to process your personal data for the specific purpose of submitting a query or booking via my website form.
Should you contact me by phone, letter or other contact method, with an enquiry or booking, the same lawful basis of ‘consent’ applies. You have given me clear consent to process your personal data for the specific purpose of responding to your query or providing you with a service.
I also use the lawful basis of ‘legitimate interest’. I collect your data in order to supply you with the information or service you have requested.
What technical data I collect and why I collect it
In order to keep my website well optimised for users, I collect technical data. This may include third party plugins collecting technical data in order to keep their services running optimally. I use Google Analytics in order to optimise user experience on my website. This can include data such as the pages you visit, time spend on each page, your general location, browser, etc. Google has its own GDPR information which you can view on Google’s website. I store Google Analytics data (on Google Analytics) indefinitely. You can choose not to be tracked by changing your browser settings, for example, going ‘incognito’ or ‘private’, or amending your Cookie settings. Please see the Cookies section below for information about Cookies.
What payment data is collected
Payment is by BACs, therefore no payment data is taken or stored.
How I store your data & how long I retain your data
Your data is held in my email accounts. The data that is kept is used to enable me to provide you with the information, help or service you requested. Data is deleted once your query has been dealt with, unless it is likely that further information or relevant services will be given in the future, or if it is needed for accounts purposes.
Technical data and website analytical data is kept on Google Analytics and is kept indefinitely.
