Introduction

This document refers to personal data, which is defined as information concerning any living person (a natural person who hereafter will be called the “Data Subject”) who is not already in the public domain.

The Data Protection Act (DPA), Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR) and The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), which is EU-wide and far more extensive, seek to protect and enhance the rights of data subjects. These rights cover the safeguarding of personal data, protection against the unlawful processing of personal data and the unrestricted movement of personal data within the EU. It should be noted that GDPR does not apply to information already in the public domain such as Companies House data.

Homeworks Roofing is pleased to provide the following GDPR information:

Homeworks Roofing uses the information collected from you to provide services and marketing information that Homeworks Roofing believes may be of interest to you and your business. In having made your initial contact with Homeworks Roofing, you consent to Homeworks Roofing maintaining a marketing dialogue with you until either you opt out (which you can do at any stage) or we decide to discontinue promoting our services. Homeworks Roofing also acts on behalf of its clients in the capacity of data processor. When working exclusively as a data processor, Homeworks Roofing will be acting on the instruction of its client and will aim to ensure that the client is fully GDPR compliant.

Some personal data may be collected about you from forms and surveys that you complete; from records of our correspondence and phone calls; and from details of your visits to our website, including but not limited to personally identifying information such as Internet Protocol (IP) addresses. Homeworks Roofing may from time to time use such information to identify its visitors. Homeworks Roofing may also collect statistics about the behaviour of visitors to its website along with transaction information collected in the process of performing its business.

Homeworks Roofing‘s website uses cookies, which are strings of information that a website stores on a visitor’s computer, and that the visitor’s browser provides to the website each time the visitor returns.

Any information Homeworks Roofing holds about you and your business encompasses all the details we hold about you and any sales transactions, including any third-party information, we have obtained about you from public sources and our own suppliers, such as credit referencing agencies.

Homeworks Roofing will only collect the information needed so that it can provide you with its services.

Data storage

Data is held on multiple servers within the United Kingdom. Homeworks Roofing does not store personal data outside the EEA.

Data transfers

Although Homeworks Roofing does not store personal data outside of the EEA, in certain circumstances we may need to transfer personal data outside of the EEA in order to provide our services (e.g. when processing transactions for international numbers). In such cases, Homeworks Roofing is committed to ensuring that third party data processors, who may themselves store personal data outside of the EEA, adhere to the highest possible level of data privacy, and, wherever practically possible, will endeavour to impose legally binding obligations on said third parties. This may include, but is not limited to, relying on EU adequacy decisions and/or PCI compliance regulations, and/or enforcing standard contractual provisions.
