Lawful Bases for Processing
We process your personal data only when we have a valid lawful basis under data protection law. Depending on the circumstances, we may rely on the following lawful bases:
Contractual necessity: We use your personal data to provide our oven cleaning services, including arranging and confirming bookings, attending your property, managing payments and communicating with you about your appointment. This processing is necessary to enter into and perform a contract with you.
Legitimate interests: We may process your personal data where it is necessary for our legitimate business interests and where your rights and freedoms are not overridden. This can include keeping basic records of past services, improving our services, responding to enquiries, and protecting our business from fraud or misuse.
Legal obligations: We may process certain personal data to comply with legal and regulatory requirements, such as tax and accounting rules, health and safety obligations, or responding to lawful requests from authorities.
Consent: In some cases, we may ask for your consent to use your personal data for specific purposes, such as sending certain types of marketing communications or using non-essential cookies. When we rely on consent, you can withdraw it at any time.
How We Use Your Personal Data
We use the personal data we collect for purposes including:
Providing you with oven cleaning services at your property and completing bookings.
Communicating with you about enquiries, quotes, bookings, changes to appointments and follow-up after a service.
Maintaining internal records, including customer history, service history and payment records.
Managing our business operations, including accounting, invoicing, reporting and auditing.
Improving our services, developing our business, and understanding how customers use our services.
Handling complaints, resolving disputes and responding to your requests or rights under data protection law.
Complying with legal obligations and cooperating with regulatory or law enforcement authorities where required.
Sharing Your Personal Data and Processors
We do not sell your personal data. We may share your personal data with trusted third parties who act as data processors or independent controllers, including:
Service providers who help us operate our business, such as payment processors, accounting or bookkeeping services, IT or hosting providers, and tools used for booking or managing appointments.
Professional advisers such as accountants, legal advisers or insurers, where necessary for advice, claims or compliance.
Authorities or regulators where we are required by law to share personal data, or where it is necessary to protect our rights or the rights of others.
We ensure that any third-party processors who handle personal data on our behalf are subject to appropriate contractual obligations to protect your personal data and process it only in accordance with our instructions and applicable law.
International Transfers
Where any of our service providers are located outside the United Kingdom or the European Economic Area, we will take steps to ensure appropriate safeguards are in place for any international transfers of personal data, such as using standard contractual clauses or relying on adequacy regulations where available.
Data Retention
We keep your personal data only for as long as is reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected and to meet legal, accounting or reporting requirements.
Customer and booking records are generally retained for a period aligned with applicable limitation periods for legal claims and tax and accounting rules. This allows us to answer questions about past services and fulfil our legal obligations.
Where personal data is no longer needed, we will securely delete it or anonymise it so that it can no longer be linked to you.
Security of Your Personal Data
We take appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against unauthorised access, accidental loss, destruction or damage. These measures include restricting access to personal data to those who need it for legitimate business purposes and using secure methods to store and transmit information where possible.
Your Data Protection Rights
If you are a customer or potential customer of Oven Cleaning Shepherd's Bush in the Shepherd's Bush area, you have certain rights under data protection law in relation to your personal data. Subject to certain conditions and legal exceptions, these rights include:
Right of access: You can request confirmation of whether we process your personal data and ask for a copy of that data, along with information about how we use it.
Right to rectification: You can ask us to correct inaccurate personal data about you and to complete incomplete information.
Right to erasure: You can request that we delete your personal data in certain circumstances, for example where it is no longer needed for the purposes for which it was collected and we have no legal obligation to keep it.
Right to restriction: You can ask us to restrict the processing of your personal data in certain situations, such as while we check the accuracy of data you believe is incorrect.
Right to object: You can object to our processing of your personal data where we are relying on legitimate interests, including any direct marketing activities. We will stop processing unless we have compelling legitimate grounds that override your interests and rights or we need the data for legal claims.
Right to data portability: Where our processing is based on your consent or on a contract and is carried out by automated means, you may request to receive the personal data you provided to us in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format, and ask us to transfer it to another controller where technically feasible.
Right to withdraw consent: Where we rely on your consent to process personal data, you can withdraw that consent at any time. This will not affect the lawfulness of processing before consent was withdrawn.
You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the relevant data protection authority if you are unhappy with how we handle your personal data. We would encourage you to contact us first so we can try to resolve your concerns.
