We do not use personal information for unrelated marketing without an appropriate lawful basis. We do not sell personal information.

5. Website forms and service providers

Our website enquiry form uses FormSubmit to process form submissions and deliver them to our business email address. Information entered into that form is therefore transmitted through FormSubmit before it reaches us.

Our website and related services may also be supported by website hosting, email, security, file-storage and accounting providers. These providers may process limited personal information when providing services to us.

We only use service providers where reasonably necessary to operate the website and business. Providers are expected to handle personal information securely and for the relevant service purposes.

6. Sharing personal information

We may share relevant information with organisations or individuals where reasonably necessary, including:

  • Website, email and form-processing providers
  • Accountants, bookkeepers and professional advisers
  • Subcontractors or suppliers involved in delivering agreed work
  • Insurers, legal advisers or authorities where necessary
  • Government departments or regulators where required by law

We will not sell or rent your personal information to third parties. Where information is shared to deliver engineering work, only information reasonably necessary for that purpose will be provided.

7. International processing

Some website, email, hosting or form-processing providers may process information outside the United Kingdom.

Where this happens, we will rely on the provider’s appropriate safeguards or another legally recognised mechanism for protecting personal information.

8. How long we retain information

Personal information is retained only for as long as reasonably necessary for the reason it was collected and to meet applicable legal, accounting, insurance and contractual requirements.

Our usual approach is:

  • General enquiries that do not become customer work may be retained for up to 24 months.
  • Customer, quotation, contract, service and invoice records may be retained for up to six years after the relevant transaction or business relationship ends.
  • Information may be retained longer where required for an ongoing dispute, insurance matter, legal claim or statutory obligation.

Information that is no longer required will be securely deleted or anonymised where reasonably practical.

9. How we protect your information

We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal information against unauthorised access, loss, misuse, alteration or disclosure.

However, no internet transmission or electronic storage system can be guaranteed as completely secure. Please avoid sending passwords, payment-card details or other unnecessary sensitive information through the website enquiry form.
