Privacy Policy

1. Data Controller Information

H2O Restore ("we", "us", or "our") is the data controller responsible for your personal data. We are committed to protecting your privacy and processing your personal data in accordance with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018.

2. Personal Data We Collect

We may collect, use, store, and transfer different kinds of personal data about you, including:

  • Identity Data: First name, last name, title.
  • Contact Data: Billing address, service address, email address, and telephone numbers.
  • Financial Data: Payment details (processed securely via third-party payment gateways; we do not store full card details).
  • Transaction Data: Details about payments to and from you and other details of services you have purchased from us.
  • Technical & Usage Data: IP address, browser type, time zone setting, and information about how you use our website.

3. Lawful Bases for Processing

We will only use your personal data when the law allows us to. Most commonly, we will use your personal data in the following circumstances:

  • Performance of a Contract: Where we need to perform the contract we are about to enter into or have entered into with you (e.g., providing a quote or carrying out cleaning services).
  • Legitimate Interests: Where it is necessary for our legitimate interests (or those of a third party) and your interests and fundamental rights do not override those interests.
  • Legal Obligation: Where we need to comply with a legal or regulatory obligation.
  • Consent: Where you have provided explicit consent (e.g., for marketing communications).

4. How We Use Your Data

We use your data primarily to provide and manage our exterior cleaning services, process payments, communicate with you regarding appointments or inquiries, and improve our website and customer service. We may also use your data to send you relevant service updates or seasonal maintenance reminders, provided you have not opted out of such communications.

5. Data Sharing and Disclosure

We do not sell your personal data to third parties. We may share your data with trusted third-party service providers who assist us in operating our business, such as payment processors, IT support, and accounting software providers. These third parties are contractually bound to keep your data secure and use it only for the purposes specified by us.

6. Data Retention

We will only retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. By law, we have to keep basic information about our customers (including Contact, Identity, Financial, and Transaction Data) for six years after they cease being customers for tax purposes.

7. Your Legal Rights

Under certain circumstances, you have rights under data protection laws in relation to your personal data, including the right to:

  • Request access to your personal data (Subject Access Request).
  • Request correction of the personal data that we hold about you.
  • Request erasure of your personal data.
  • Object to processing of your personal data.
  • Request restriction of processing your personal data.
  • Request transfer of your personal data.
  • Right to withdraw consent at any time.

8. Cookies and Tracking

Our website uses cookies to distinguish you from other users, providing a better experience and allowing us to improve our site. You can set your browser to refuse all or some browser cookies, or to alert you when websites set or access cookies. If you disable or refuse cookies, please note that some parts of this website may become inaccessible or not function properly.

9. Data Security

We have put in place appropriate security measures to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used, or accessed in an unauthorised way, altered, or disclosed. In addition, we limit access to your personal data to those employees, agents, contractors, and other third parties who have a business need to know.

10. International Transfers

We generally do not transfer your personal data outside the UK. However, if any of our third-party service providers are based outside the UK, we ensure a similar degree of protection is afforded to it by ensuring appropriate safeguards are implemented, such as standard contractual clauses approved for use in the UK.

11. Complaints

You have the right to make a complaint at any time to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO), the UK supervisory authority for data protection issues (www.ico.org.uk). We would, however, appreciate the chance to deal with your concerns before you approach the ICO, so please contact us in the first instance.
