- Business contacts and administration: to communicate with people acting for customers, manage service queries and maintain useful records. We rely on our legitimate interests in running our business and providing customer support.
- Security and disputes: to protect accounts, investigate misuse and establish or defend claims. We rely on our legitimate interests in protecting our business and customers.
- Accounting and legal requirements: to retain the records needed to meet applicable tax, accounting and other legal obligations.
- Optional activities requiring permission: where we ask for consent, such as for certain cookies, we use the information for the purpose explained when requesting that consent.
We need enough information to identify the property, assess the work and contact you. Without it, we may be unable to provide a quotation or service.

If we send promotional messages, we do so only where permitted by applicable rules, obtaining consent where required. You can ask us to stop promotional messages at any time by contacting us or using an unsubscribe option provided in the message.
5. Who we share your information with
We use specialist service providers to help manage our business, deliver our services, operate our website and process payments. Depending on your interaction with us, these include:

- Google Analytics: to help us understand how visitors use our website and identify improvements, subject to the website’s analytics settings and your applicable privacy choices.
The information involved depends on the service being used. It may include your name, contact details, service address, booking information, invoice and payment information, or technical information about your website visit.
Providers processing personal information on our behalf are subject to appropriate data-processing terms. Payment providers may also use information as independent data controllers for purposes such as fraud prevention, regulatory compliance and meeting legal obligations. Their own privacy notices explain this processing.
We may also share relevant information with professional advisers, insurers or public authorities where necessary for a legitimate business purpose or to meet a legal obligation.
6. Where your information is processed
Our website is hosted using Vultr infrastructure, with its main server located in the United Kingdom.
Some of our service providers and their supporting suppliers may process personal information outside the United Kingdom. This may include processing associated with backups, technical support, payments and website analytics.
Where personal information is transferred outside the United Kingdom, the transfer must be covered by an applicable adequacy arrangement or appropriate safeguards under UK data protection law.
For further information about where your personal information is processed and the safeguards that apply, contact us at info@cleanitcambridge.com .
7. How long we keep information
Retention depends on the purpose of the record:
- Enquiries and unsuccessful quotes: while needed to respond and deal with reasonable follow-up questions.
- Customer and service records: for the customer relationship and afterwards where needed for outstanding payments, complaints or claims.
- Financial records: for the period required by the tax and accounting rules applicable to our business.
- Photographs and access details: while relevant to assessing, carrying out or documenting work, or resolving a related issue.
When deciding whether records are still needed, we consider outstanding work, legal duties, disputes and the sensitivity of the information. Information should not be retained indefinitely simply because it may be useful.
