How we use your data and our lawful basis
We use your data to: respond to enquiries and provide quotes; arrange and carry out the work; issue paperwork and compliance documentation; take payment and chase outstanding invoices; meet our legal and accreditation obligations; keep service and warranty records; and improve our website and service.
Our lawful bases under UK GDPR are: performance of a contract (or steps to enter one); our legitimate interests in running the business safely and well; compliance with legal obligations; and consent where required, for example for non-essential cookies and any future marketing.
Sharing your data
We do not sell your personal data. We share it only where necessary with:
- Our employed staff.
- Equipment manufacturers where needed to register a product warranty.
- Our payment processor, accountant and IT/hosting/analytics suppliers acting on our instructions.
- Cloudflare, who provide the hosting and CDN for this website and process limited technical traffic data on our behalf under their privacy policy.

We may also disclose data where the law requires it.
How long we keep it
We keep job, certificate and warranty records for at least the length of the relevant compliance cycle. Invoice and tax records are kept for at least 6 years to satisfy HMRC. Enquiry data that does not lead to work is kept for 12 months and then deleted or anonymised.
A copy of contact-form submissions is held in our shared form-handler service at forms.resultsyoucanmeasure.com and routed to our team. The same retention and access controls apply there as to the originals.
