1. Who is responsible for your data
247 Plumbers Norwich (247plumbersnorwich.uk) is the data controller for the personal information collected through this website. Questions about this policy or about your data can be sent to info@247plumbersnorwich.uk.
2. What is collected and why
The enquiry form. When you send a Quick Quote request the form collects your name, phone number, email address, postcode, the service you have chosen and the message you write. This is used to call you back, arrange the visit, price the work and carry it out. The lawful basis is that the processing is necessary to take steps at your request before entering into a contract, and afterwards to perform it.
Email. If you email info@247plumbersnorwich.uk, your address and whatever you write are used to answer you and, if you go ahead, to arrange the work.
Records of work. Where work is carried out, the details of the job, the invoice and any certificates or reports produced are kept as business records and, for gas safety records, for the period the law requires.
Technical data. The website itself sets no analytics or advertising cookies on this build. The hosting provider records standard server logs (IP address, pages requested, browser type) for security and to keep the site running, and these are kept for a short period.
3. Embedded maps
Pages showing the area covered embed a map from Google Maps. When the map loads, your browser connects to Google, which may set its own cookies and collect information about your visit in accordance with Google's privacy policy. The map is loaded only when it scrolls into view.
4. Who sees your information
Your enquiry is seen by the people who handle bookings and by the engineer who attends. It is not sold or passed to third parties for marketing. It may be shared with service providers who host the website and email, who act on our instructions, and with professional advisers or authorities where the law requires it.
5. How long it is kept
Enquiries that do not lead to work are deleted within twelve months. Records of work carried out are kept for six years after the work, in line with the limitation period for contracts, and gas safety records for the period the regulations require. Server logs are kept by the hosting provider for a short period only.
6. Where it is stored
Information is stored on systems in the United Kingdom or the European Economic Area, or with providers that offer equivalent safeguards where data is transferred outside those areas.
7. Your rights
You have the right to ask what personal information is held about you, to have it corrected, to have it deleted where there is no longer a reason to keep it, to object to or restrict its processing, and to receive a copy in a portable form. To exercise any of these, email info@247plumbersnorwich.uk. If you are unhappy with how your information has been handled you can complain to the Information Commissioner's Office, the UK's data protection regulator.
