What Personal Data We Collect and Why

Enquiry and Contact Information

When you contact us by telephone, email or through our website contact form, we collect the information you provide: your name, telephone number, email address, property address and details of the roofing work you are enquiring about. We use this information solely to respond to your enquiry, provide a quote, arrange a site visit and carry out any work you commission from us.

The legal basis for processing this data is our legitimate interest in responding to customer enquiries and fulfilling contracts for roofing services.

Call Recording

Telephone calls to our number may be recorded for training and quality assurance purposes. Calls are retained for a maximum of 90 days and then deleted. You will be informed at the start of any call if recording is in use.

Website Analytics

Our website may collect anonymised data about how visitors use the site, including pages visited, time on site and general geographic location (country/region level only). This data contains no personally identifiable information and is used solely to improve the website. No individual user is tracked or profiled.

Cookies

Our website uses only functional cookies necessary for the site to operate correctly. We do not use advertising cookies, tracking cookies or third-party marketing cookies. You can disable cookies in your browser settings without affecting your ability to use this website.

How Long We Keep Your Data

Enquiry records where no work was commissioned are retained for 12 months and then deleted.

Records relating to completed work are retained for 7 years from the date of completion to comply with HMRC requirements and to honour our 10-year workmanship guarantee. After 7 years, financial records are deleted and only the guarantee record (property address, scope of work, guarantee expiry date) is retained for the remaining guarantee period.

You may request deletion of your personal data at any time, subject to our legal obligation to retain financial records as described above.

These suppliers are provided only with the minimum information necessary (delivery address, contact name and telephone number) and are not permitted to use your data for any other purpose.

We may be required to disclose personal data to regulatory authorities, courts or law enforcement agencies where legally required to do so.
