Privacy Policy

Draft for review. This policy must be finalised and approved by Buildcare, and by its legal adviser where required, before the website is published.

1. Information we collect

When you submit the enquiry form we collect the details you provide, such as your name, phone number, property location, the service you are interested in and a description of the problem. If you contact us by phone, email or WhatsApp we also keep a record of that conversation.

2. How we use it

Enquiry details are used to review your requirement, arrange an inspection, prepare a scope and quotation, and to follow up on the work we have agreed to carry out. We do not sell or rent personal information to third parties.

3. Website data

The website may collect standard technical information such as browser type, pages visited and referring pages in order to understand how the site is used. Any analytics tooling used must be configured with consent and documented in this policy before launch.

4. Storage and retention

Enquiry records are retained for as long as needed to deal with the enquiry, provide the agreed services and meet statutory record-keeping requirements. Retention periods are to be confirmed and documented here before publication.

5. Sharing

Information is shared only with service providers who need it to deliver the work, such as a lead-management system or an email provider, and only under appropriate agreements. Nothing is shared with third parties for marketing purposes.

6. Your rights

You may ask to access, correct or delete the information we hold about you, or to withdraw consent for future contact. Requests are to be handled through the contact details listed on the contact page.

7. Cookies

Any cookies used for analytics or advertising will be described here, including their purpose and duration, and will only be set after the appropriate consent is obtained.

Before publication: complete the retention periods, name the lead-management provider, list the contact route for privacy requests and confirm which cookies are used.
