Privacy Policy - Carpetcleaning Tw1

This Privacy Policy explains how Carpetcleaning Tw1 collects, uses, stores, and protects personal data relating to customers and prospective customers in the TW1 area. It applies to all Carpetcleaning Tw1 customers in area, including anyone who requests a quote, books a service, communicates with us, or receives cleaning services from us. We are committed to handling personal data in a lawful, fair, transparent, and secure way in line with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018.

1. Who this policy applies to

This policy applies to individuals in the TW1 area who use our carpet cleaning services, request information, obtain a quotation, make an enquiry, or otherwise engage with our business. It also applies to any person whose personal data we may receive in connection with a booking, such as tenants, landlords, property managers, or authorised representatives.

We only process personal data where there is a valid legal reason to do so, and we keep that processing limited to what is necessary.

2. Personal data we collect

We may collect the following categories of personal data:

  • Identity data: name and, where needed, title.
  • Contact data: address, phone number, and email address.
  • Booking and service data: details of the service requested, appointment times, property access notes, and any special instructions.
  • Payment data: payment confirmation, transaction records, and billing information. We do not intentionally store full card details if payments are processed by a third party.
  • Communication data: messages, emails, call notes, complaints, and service feedback.
  • Technical data: limited device or usage information if you interact with us through digital channels, such as IP address or browser type, where applicable.
  • Property-related information: carpet condition, room size, stain or damage descriptions, and cleaning requirements relevant to the service.

We do not seek to collect special category data unless it is voluntarily provided and necessary for a specific service request. If such data is provided, it will be handled with extra care and only where legally permitted.

3. How we use personal data

We use personal data to:

  • respond to enquiries and provide quotes;
  • manage bookings and carry out carpet cleaning services;
  • confirm appointments and service details;
  • process payments and maintain business records;
  • communicate about changes, issues, or service follow-up;
  • handle complaints, disputes, or refund requests;
  • maintain quality, safety, and internal administration;
  • comply with legal, tax, accounting, and regulatory obligations;
  • prevent fraud, misuse, and unauthorised access.

We do not use personal data for unrelated purposes without first ensuring that the use is lawful and compatible with the original purpose.

4. Lawful basis for processing

Under UK GDPR, we rely on one or more of the following lawful bases:

Contract

We process personal data when it is necessary to enter into or perform a contract with you. This includes providing quotes at your request, confirming bookings, delivering services, and processing related payments.

Legal obligation

We may process certain information to meet legal obligations, including accounting, tax records, business compliance, and record-keeping requirements.

Legitimate interests

We may process data where it is necessary for our legitimate business interests, provided those interests are not overridden by your rights and freedoms. Examples include managing customer enquiries, improving service quality, maintaining internal records, and protecting our business against fraud or misuse.

Consent

In limited situations, we may rely on your consent, for example where it is required for a specific communication or optional marketing activity. Where consent is used, you may withdraw it at any time.

5. Data sharing and processors

We may share personal data with trusted third-party service providers who act as processors on our behalf. These processors only handle data according to our instructions and are required to protect it appropriately. Examples may include:

  • payment service providers;
  • booking or scheduling systems;
  • IT, cloud storage, and email providers;
  • accounting and bookkeeping services;
  • customer support or communication tools.

We may also disclose information where required by law, by court order, or to protect our legal rights, customers, staff, or property. Where a processor is used, we take reasonable steps to ensure appropriate data protection terms are in place.

We do not sell personal data.

6. International transfers

Where personal data is transferred outside the UK, we will ensure appropriate safeguards are in place, such as an adequacy decision, the UK International Data Transfer Agreement, or other legally approved mechanisms. We aim to keep data within secure systems and only with providers that offer suitable protection.

7. Data retention

We keep personal data only for as long as necessary for the purpose it was collected, including to satisfy legal, accounting, and operational requirements. Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information and the reason for holding it.

  • Booking and service records: retained for a reasonable period to support service history, queries, and administration.
  • Financial and tax records: retained for the period required by law.
  • Correspondence and complaints: retained as needed to resolve matters and defend legal claims.
  • Consent-based records: retained until consent is withdrawn or the data is no longer needed.

When data is no longer required, we will delete it or anonymise it securely.

8. Data security

We use reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against loss, misuse, unauthorised access, alteration, or disclosure. These measures may include restricted access, secure storage, password protection, and access controls. While no system can be guaranteed completely secure, we work to reduce risks and maintain a high standard of protection.

9. Your rights

As a data subject under UK GDPR, you have the following rights, subject to certain legal limits:

  • Right of access: request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
  • Right to rectification: ask us to correct inaccurate or incomplete data.
  • Right to erasure: request deletion of your data in certain circumstances.
  • Right to restrict processing: ask us to limit how we use your data in certain cases.
  • Right to object: object to processing based on legitimate interests or direct marketing.
  • Right to data portability: request transfer of data you provided in a structured format, where applicable.
  • Right to withdraw consent: withdraw consent where processing is based on consent.

If you wish to exercise any of these rights, we may need to verify your identity before responding.

10. Children’s data

Our services are intended for adults and property-related customers. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children unless it is incidentally provided in the context of a service booking or household communication, and only where necessary. If we become aware that children’s data has been collected incorrectly, we will take appropriate steps to remove it where required.

11. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the law, our services, or how we process personal data. Any updated version will apply from the date it is published or otherwise made available. We encourage customers in the TW1 area to review this policy periodically.

12. Complaints

If you have concerns about how your personal data is handled, you may raise them with us so we can review and address the issue. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the UK Information Commissioner’s Office if you believe your data protection rights have been infringed.

13. Summary of our approach

We only collect personal data that is relevant to providing carpet cleaning services, managing customer relationships, and meeting legal obligations. We rely on lawful bases such as contract, legal obligation, legitimate interests, and consent where appropriate. We retain data only as long as necessary, share it only with trusted processors or where legally required, and respect your rights under data protection law.
