  1. Our Lawful Bases for Processing

Under UK data protection law, we must have a lawful basis for processing personal information.

Depending on the circumstances, we may rely on:

Contract – where processing is necessary to enter into or perform a contract with you.

Legal obligation – where we need to process information to comply with a legal or regulatory requirement.

Legitimate interests – where processing is necessary for our legitimate business interests and those interests are not overridden by your rights and interests. This may include operating and improving our business, responding to business enquiries, maintaining client relationships, protecting our business and carrying out proportionate business-to-business marketing.

Consent – where we have specifically asked you for consent. Where we rely on consent, you may withdraw it at any time.

  1. Business-to-Business Marketing

From time to time, we may contact businesses and business representatives who we reasonably believe may be interested in our commercial cleaning services.

We may obtain business contact information from publicly available sources, including company websites, business directories and professional networking platforms.

Where we process an individual’s business contact information for direct marketing, we will do so only where there is an appropriate lawful basis under UK data protection law.

Where permitted, we may rely on our legitimate interests in promoting and developing our commercial cleaning business.

We do not sell personal information to third parties.

You have the right to object to the use of your personal information for direct marketing at any time.

Every marketing email we send will provide a straightforward way to opt out of further marketing communications. You may also request removal from our marketing list by contacting:

info@smscleaningservices.co.uk

Once an objection or opt-out request has been received, we may retain limited information on a suppression list to ensure that we respect your request and do not contact you again for marketing purposes.

  1. Sharing Your Personal Information

We do not sell or rent personal information.

We may share personal information where reasonably necessary with trusted third parties that assist us in operating our business, including:

  • website hosting and IT service providers;
  • email and communication providers;
  • accounting and bookkeeping providers;
  • payment and banking providers;
  • website analytics providers;
  • professional advisers such as accountants, insurers or legal advisers; and
  • government authorities, regulators or law-enforcement bodies where required by law.

Where third parties process personal information on our behalf, we expect them to protect the information appropriately and use it only for the authorised purpose.

We may also disclose information where necessary to establish, exercise or defend legal rights or where required by law.

  1. International Transfers

Some technology and service providers we use may process or store personal information outside the United Kingdom.

Where personal information is transferred internationally, we take appropriate steps to ensure that the transfer complies with applicable UK data protection law and that appropriate safeguards are in place where required.

  1. How Long We Keep Personal Information

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including satisfying legal, accounting, contractual and regulatory requirements.

The period for which information is retained will depend on factors such as:

  • the nature of the information;
  • our relationship with you or your organisation;
  • applicable legal and accounting requirements;
  • whether the information is required to establish or defend legal claims; and
  • whether you have requested that we stop using your information for a particular purpose.

When personal information is no longer required, we will delete it securely or anonymise it where appropriate.

  1. How We Protect Your Information

We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal information against unauthorised access, accidental loss, alteration, disclosure or destruction.

Access to personal information is restricted to employees, service providers and other authorised persons who have a legitimate business need to access it.

However, no internet-based system can be guaranteed to be completely secure, and we cannot guarantee the absolute security of information transmitted electronically.
