2. What Personal Data We Collect

Contact form enquiries

When you use the contact form on our website, we collect the following information that you provide voluntarily:

  • Your name
  • Your email address
  • Your phone number
  • The content of your message or enquiry

We do not collect this data unless you choose to submit the form.

Website usage — third-party font services

Our website uses the following external services to display its typography. When your browser loads our site, it makes requests to these services, which may log your IP address as part of normal server operations:

These font requests are necessary for the website to display correctly and are processed under our legitimate interests. We do not receive or store any data from these requests ourselves.

No analytics or tracking

We do not use Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, or any other tracking or analytics software on this website. We do not track your behaviour across the internet.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use the information you submit via the contact form solely to:

  • Respond to your enquiry about gardening services
  • Arrange a free garden visit and quotation if requested

We do not use your data for marketing, we do not sell it, and we do not share it with any third parties except where required by law.

4. Legal Basis for Processing

We rely on the following lawful bases under UK-GDPR:

  • Legitimate interests — responding to your enquiry about a service you have requested, and loading website fonts necessary for the site to function as designed.
  • Contract — where we are providing or agreeing to provide gardening services to you.

5. How Long We Keep Your Data

We retain contact enquiries for as long as reasonably necessary to respond and, where relevant, complete any resulting work. In practice, enquiry details are deleted or no longer used within 12 months of the enquiry being resolved.

If we enter into an ongoing service arrangement with you, we may keep relevant contact details for the duration of that arrangement plus a reasonable period thereafter for business record purposes.

6. Your Rights Under UK-GDPR

Under UK data protection law, you have the following rights:

  • Right of access — to request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
  • Right to rectification — to ask us to correct inaccurate or incomplete data.
  • Right to erasure — to ask us to delete your personal data ("right to be forgotten").
  • Right to restrict processing — to ask us to limit how we use your data.
  • Right to object — to object to our processing where we rely on legitimate interests.
  • Right to data portability — to receive your data in a portable, machine-readable format.

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at [email protected]. We will respond within one month.

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) if you believe we have not handled your data correctly. You can do this at ico.org.uk/make-a-complaint or by calling 0303 123 1113.

7. Cookies and Local Storage

This website does not set advertising or analytics cookies. We use the browser's local storage solely to remember whether you have dismissed our privacy notice, so we do not show it again on subsequent visits. This does not track you or share any data with third parties.

8. Third-Party Links

Our website contains links to external websites including our Facebook page. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites. We recommend you review the privacy policy of any third-party site you visit.

9. Data Security

This is a static informational website. We do not store form submissions on servers we control — enquiry data is sent directly to our email inbox via a secure third-party form service. The website is served over HTTPS to protect data in transit.
