Template content. This page is scaffolding for a website template, not legal advice. Passages in [square brackets] mark decisions only the operating business can make. Have the finished text reviewed by a qualified advisor before publishing.

01
Who this notice covers
This notice explains how [Registered business name], trading as Gibson Asphalt, handles personal information collected through this website. It covers the pages published at this domain and the estimate request form.
It does not cover any separate agreement you sign for paving work, nor third-party websites that this site links to. Those are governed by their own terms.
02
Information you give us directly
When you complete the estimate form or contact us by phone or email, you choose what to share. That usually includes:
Your name and the best way to reach you — phone number, email address, or both.
The address or general location of the property you want work on.
A description of the project: the service you are interested in, the surface involved, and any problems you have noticed.
Any scheduling preferences or constraints you mention.
Photographs of the surface, if you choose to send them.
03
Information collected automatically
A live deployment of this website is served by a hosting provider that records standard technical information as part of delivering pages — IP address, browser type and version, the pages requested, and the time of the request. This is ordinary server logging and is used to keep the site available and secure.
[Name your hosting provider and link to their privacy documentation here. If you enable a CDN, form backend, or email delivery service, list them too.]
04
Cookies and similar technologies
As shipped, this template does not set analytics, advertising, or profiling cookies. Our cookie information page explains what changes if you add those services later, and what consent controls you will need.
05
How we use your information
To respond to your enquiry and answer questions about a possible project.
To arrange a site visit and prepare an estimate for your property.
To plan, schedule, and carry out work you have agreed to.
To keep records of estimates, agreements, and completed projects.
To meet accounting, tax, insurance, and other legal obligations.
To handle a complaint, warranty question, or dispute if one arises.
06
What we do not do
We do not sell personal information.
We do not share your details with unrelated companies for their own marketing.
We do not add you to a marketing mailing list on the basis of an estimate enquiry alone.
We do not make automated decisions about you that produce legal or similarly significant effects.
08
How long we keep it
Enquiries that do not lead to work are kept only as long as needed to follow up, then deleted. Records connected to a project we carried out are kept for longer, because tax, insurance, and warranty obligations require it.
[State your actual retention periods here — for example, how long you keep unsuccessful enquiries, signed agreements, and project records. Your accountant and insurer can tell you the minimums that apply.]
09
Keeping information secure
We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect the information we hold, including limiting access to those who need it. No website or storage system is perfectly secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Please do not send sensitive personal information — payment card details, government identifiers, or health information — through a general project enquiry.
10
Your choices and rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to ask us for a copy of the personal information we hold about you, to correct it, to delete it, or to object to or restrict certain uses. You can also ask us to stop contacting you at any time.
To make a request, use the contact details at the end of this page. We may need to verify your identity before acting. We will not treat you differently for exercising these rights.
[Confirm which privacy laws apply to your business and customers, and describe the specific rights and response times those laws require.]
11
Children
This website is intended for property owners and managers. It is not directed at children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided information through this site, contact us and we will delete it.
12
Links to other websites
Where this site links to another organisation — a supplier, a review platform, or a social network — that organisation controls its own site and handles your information under its own policy. We are not responsible for their practices, and we encourage you to read their notices.

Changes to this notice
We may update this notice as the business, the website, or the law changes. The revision date at the top of this page shows when it was last reviewed. Material changes will be made clear on this page.
