What data we collect
We collect information in a few different ways: information you choose to provide, information collected automatically through cookies and similar technologies (when consent is given), and technical information necessary to keep the website secure and working.
Data you provide directly
- Full name
- Email address
- Phone number (only if you choose to provide it outside the registration form; our registration form does not request phone numbers)
- Form submission content
Data collected automatically (technical and usage)
- IP address
- Browser type and version
- Device type and operating system
- Cookies and tracking identifiers
- Usage data (pages visited, time on site, click paths)
- Conversion events (form submits, calls, purchases)
Not all items above will apply to every visitor. For example, analytics and advertising identifiers are used only when you accept the relevant cookie categories through our consent banner.
Consent requirements
Our consent banner is designed to provide clear choices and to prevent analytics or marketing cookies from activating until you opt in. The banner offers three options: “Accept All”, “Reject Non-Essential”, and “Manage Preferences”. Your choice is stored in localStorage for 12 months and can be updated at any time through the preferences panel.
By clicking 'Accept All Cookies', you consent to the storing of cookies on your device for analytics and advertising purposes, including personalized advertising delivered by Google and Meta. You may withdraw consent at any time through the cookie preferences panel without affecting the lawfulness of processing that occurred before withdrawal.
Users in the European Economic Area and the United Kingdom receive this consent notice in compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and UK GDPR. Marketing and analytics cookies are activated solely after explicit, informed, freely given consent under GDPR Article 6(1)(a). Consent is recorded with a timestamp and may be audited upon request.
You may withdraw consent at any time by clicking 'Manage cookie preferences' in the website footer, or by clearing cookies via your browser settings. Withdrawal does not affect processing that occurred while consent was valid.
Data Sharing with Advertising Partners
We share certain data with advertising partners for campaign delivery and measurement. Recipients and the data categories shared include:
- Google LLC: cookie identifiers, conversion events, anonymized behavioral data, remarketing lists. Governed by Google's Privacy Policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy
- Meta Platforms, Inc.: pixel events, conversion data, custom audiences. Governed by Meta's Data Policy: https://www.facebook.com/privacy/policy
We do not sell personal data. All transfers to Google and Meta operate under Standard Contractual Clauses where applicable. Data is processed for ad targeting and campaign measurement only, not resold to unaffiliated third parties.
Google and Meta may use this data across their own platforms in accordance with their respective policies. We encourage users to review those policies directly.
Lead Forms and Contact Requests
When you submit a contact form, request a quote, or register interest in our services, we collect the information you provide. This typically includes: full name, email address, phone number, and your message.
Legal basis: consent (GDPR Art. 6.1.a) and, where a service relationship exists, performance of a contract (GDPR Art. 6.1.b).
Retention: form submission data is retained for up to 2 years from the date of submission, unless a longer period is required by applicable law.
You may request deletion of your data at any time by contacting us at the email address in this policy.

Google Services and Advertising
This website uses the following Google services:
- Google Analytics 4: collects anonymized usage data, device info, and behavioral signals. IP anonymization is enabled. Data retention is set to 14 months. Users may opt out via the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout
- Google Ads Conversion Tracking: records when a user completes a defined action (form submission, call, purchase) after clicking one of our ads. This data is used solely for measuring ad campaign performance.
- Google Remarketing: allows us to show ads to previous visitors across Google's network. Remarketing lists are not created from sensitive data categories (health, finance, religion, sexual orientation).
- Google Tag Manager: deploys tracking tags on our behalf. No personal data is collected by GTM itself; it acts as a container for the tags listed above.
Google's advertising products are governed by: https://policies.google.com/technologies/ads
Meta Advertising Services
This website uses the Meta Pixel to measure the effectiveness of our advertising on Facebook and Instagram. The pixel may record:

- Custom audience membership for retargeting purposes
We do not use the Meta Pixel to collect sensitive personal data, nor to target users based on health status, financial situation, religion, political views, sexual orientation, or any other special-category attribute prohibited under Meta's advertising policies.
Meta acts as an independent data controller for data collected via its Pixel and processed within its own platform. Refer to Meta's Data Policy: https://www.facebook.com/privacy/policy
