What data we need

The personal data we collect from you includes:

• questions, queries or feedback you leave, including your email address if you contact PDL Scaffolding
• your email address and subscription preferences when you sign up to our email list

Why we need it

We use Google Analytics software to collect information about how you use pdlscaffolding.co.uk. We do this to help make sure the site is meeting the needs of its users and to help us make improvements.

Google Analytics stores information about:

• the pages you visit on pdlscaffolding.co.uk
• how long you spend on each pdlscaffolding.co.uk page
• how you got to the site
• what you click on while you’re visiting the site

We do not collect or store your personal information (for example your name or address) so this information cannot be used to identify who you are.

We also collect data in order to:

• improve the site by monitoring how you use it
• gather feedback to improve our services, for example our email alerts
• respond to any feedback you send us, if you’ve asked us to
• send email alerts to users who request them

What we do with your data

We will not:

• sell or rent your data to third parties
• share your data with third parties for marketing purposes

We will share your data if we are required to do so by law – for example, by court order, or to prevent fraud or other crime.

How long we keep your data

We will only retain your personal data for as long as:

• it is needed for the purposes set out in this document
• the law requires us to

Children’s privacy protection

Our services are not designed for, or intentionally targeted at, children 13 years of age or younger. We do not intentionally collect or maintain data about anyone under the age of 13.

How we protect your data and keep it secure

We are committed to doing all that we can to keep your data secure. We have set up systems and processes to prevent unauthorised access or disclosure of your data – for example, we protect your data using varying levels of encryption.

Your rights

You have the right to request:

• information about how your personal data is processed
