Any data you provide via this website is transmitted using SSL encryption. We then receive the enquiry via secure email which is stored on a secure, UK based server.
Emails are viewed either via an office PC, or via our smartphones, both of which use a secure connection to the email server and are regularly scanned for malicious software and viruses.
Do We Share Your Personal Data?
We do not share your data with any third parties unless they are working as subcontractors to our company and need to contact you regarding work being carried out.
Only directors and employees of our company have access to contact data which you provide. This data is only supplied as and when necessary to contact you.
