5. Our lawful basis for processing your information
Depending on the circumstances, we may process your personal information because:
It is necessary to perform a contract
For example, where we need your contact details, address and information about your heating or mechanical systems in order to provide a quotation or carry out agreed work.
It is necessary for our legitimate interests
For example, to manage our business, maintain customer records, communicate with customers and improve our services, provided that these interests do not override your privacy rights.
We have a legal obligation
For example, where we need to retain financial and accounting records to comply with legal or tax requirements.
You have given consent
Where consent is required for a particular use of your information, we will ask for it. You can withdraw your consent at any time.
6. Sharing your information
We do not sell, rent or otherwise trade your personal information.
We may share relevant information with trusted third parties where this is necessary to provide our services or operate our business.
Third-party contractors
We may use suitably qualified third-party contractors to carry out specific work on our behalf or as part of a project.
Where necessary, we may provide contractors with relevant customer information, such as your name, address, contact details and information about the work required.
We only provide information that is reasonably necessary for the contractor to carry out the work.
Where we use contractors to process personal information on our behalf, we expect them to handle that information securely and in accordance with applicable data protection legislation.
Accounting services
We use a third-party accounting system to manage our accounts and financial records. This system may contain customer names, contact information, addresses, details of work and other information required for accounting and invoicing purposes.
We select third-party service providers carefully and expect them to maintain appropriate security measures to protect personal information.
We may also disclose information where required to do so by law, regulation, court order or other legal process.
7. How long we keep your information
We only keep personal information for as long as it is reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected.
Some information, particularly financial and accounting records, may need to be retained for longer periods to comply with legal and tax requirements.
When personal information is no longer required, we will securely delete it or otherwise dispose of it appropriately.
8. Keeping your information secure
We take reasonable and appropriate steps to protect your personal information against loss, misuse, unauthorised access, alteration or disclosure.
Access to personal information is limited to those who need it for legitimate business purposes.
However, no method of transmitting or storing information electronically can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
9. Your rights
Under UK data protection law, you may have the right to:
-
Ask us for a copy of the personal information we hold about you

Ask us to correct inaccurate or incomplete information

Ask us to delete your personal information in certain circumstances
-

-
Object to certain types of processing

These rights are subject to certain legal conditions and exemptions.
If you would like to exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the details provided above.
10. Complaints
If you have concerns about how we have handled your personal information, we would encourage you to contact us first so that we can try to resolve the issue.
