What information we collect
We collect information you give us directly, and information collected automatically when you use this site.
- Information you provide: name, phone number, email address, property address, and details of the job you're enquiring about, when you fill in our enquiry form, call, email, or message us via WhatsApp.
- Information collected automatically: we use Google Analytics (GA4) and Google Tag Manager to understand how visitors use this site — pages viewed, time on site, general location (town/region level), and device type. We also use Google Ads conversion tracking, including call tracking, which can temporarily assign a unique forwarding phone number to visitors who arrive from a paid ad, so we can measure which ads lead to phone calls.
- Postcode checker: when you use the coverage checker on this site, the postcode you enter is sent to a third-party service (postcodes.io) to look up the general location. We do not store the postcodes you check.
How we use your information
- To respond to your enquiry and provide a quote or arrange a job
- To contact you about work in progress, scheduling, or aftercare
- To meet our legal, accounting, and tax obligations as a business
- To understand how our website is used, so we can improve it
- To measure the effectiveness of our advertising
Legal basis for processing
We process your personal information because it's necessary to take steps at your request before entering into a contract with you (responding to a quote request), to perform a contract with you (carrying out agreed work), to comply with our legal obligations, or because we have a legitimate business interest in understanding and improving how our site and advertising perform.
Who we share your information with
We don't sell your personal information. We may share it with:
- Trusted subcontractors, where their involvement is needed to carry out a job you've asked us to do
- Our accountant, for bookkeeping and tax purposes
- Service providers who help us run this website and our marketing, including Google (Analytics, Ads, Tag Manager), Formspree (our enquiry form processor), and postcodes.io (postcode lookups)
- Where we're legally required to, such as HMRC or a court order
How long we keep your information
We keep enquiry and customer information for as long as needed to carry out the work, provide any guarantee period that applies, and meet our legal and tax record-keeping obligations (typically up to 7 years for financial records). Website analytics data is retained according to Google's default retention settings.
Your rights
Under UK data protection law, you have the right to:
- Ask what personal information we hold about you
- Ask us to correct inaccurate information
- Ask us to delete your information, where we're not required to keep it
- Object to or restrict certain processing
- Ask for your information in a portable format
To exercise any of these rights, contact us at info@besabuilding.co.uk. If you're not satisfied with how we've handled your information, you can complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) at ico.org.uk.
