Our lawful basis for using your information

UK data protection law requires us to have a lawful basis for processing personal information.

Depending on the circumstances, we may process your information because:

Contract – it is necessary to provide a quotation, service or installation you have requested, or to take steps before entering into a contract with you.

Legitimate interests – it is reasonably necessary for running and improving SmartLeak UK, communicating with customers, managing enquiries and protecting our business, provided those interests do not override your rights.

Legal obligation – we need to process or retain certain information to comply with legal, accounting, tax or regulatory requirements.

Consent – where consent is required, for example for certain marketing or non-essential cookies, we will ask for it. You can withdraw your consent at any time.

The ICO requires organisations to determine the appropriate lawful basis before processing personal information. ICO

Who we may share information with

We may need to share limited personal information with trusted organisations that help us provide our services, such as:

  • Product manufacturers and suppliers

  • Delivery and logistics providers

  • Installation or specialist service partners where applicable

  • Payment providers

  • Accountants and professional advisers

  • Website, email, IT and cloud-service providers

  • Regulatory, government or law-enforcement bodies where legally required

  • We only share information where there is a legitimate reason to do so and only the information reasonably necessary for that purpose.

Some technology providers may process information outside the UK. Where this happens, we take appropriate steps to ensure personal information receives the protections required by applicable data protection law.

How long we keep your information

We keep personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including providing ongoing customer support and meeting legal, tax, accounting, warranty and regulatory requirements.

Retention periods may therefore vary depending on the type of information and our relationship with you.

When information is no longer required, we will delete it or securely dispose of it where appropriate.

How we protect your information

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

Access to personal information is limited to people and service providers who have a legitimate business need to access it.

Cookies and website analytics

Our website may use cookies and similar technologies to operate correctly, understand how visitors use the website and improve their experience.

Some cookies are essential for the website to function. Where required, we will ask for your permission before using non-essential cookies.

More information is available in our Cookie Policy.

The ICO states that website visitors should be told about cookies and that consent is generally required for cookies that aren't strictly necessary. ICO

Marketing

We may occasionally contact customers or people who have expressed an interest in SmartLeak UK about relevant products or services where we are permitted to do so.

Where consent is required, we will obtain it first.

You can ask us to stop sending marketing communications at any time by using the unsubscribe option provided or contacting hello@smartleak.co.uk.
