Effective date: [insert date]. This policy explains, in full, how Cabling Gods Limited collects, uses, shares, stores and protects personal data, in line with the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018.
Cabling Gods Limited ("we", "us", "our") is a cabling and security systems installation contractor registered in England & Wales, Company No. [add company number], with a registered office at [add registered office address]. We are the data controller for the personal data described in this policy — meaning we decide how and why it's used, and we're responsible for looking after it properly. Contact us at info@cgsecurityinstallers.com or +44 7483 228028 with any privacy questions.
We collect personal data you give us directly, including:
We do not deliberately collect any "special category" data (such as health information) about you as a website visitor or customer. If a job requires us to be told about something like a medical condition (for example, safe-access instructions for a vulnerable occupant), we only use that information for the specific safety purpose it was given for.
Most of the data we hold is given to us directly by you — through our contact form, the quote builder, WhatsApp, email or a phone call. We also collect a small amount of technical data automatically when you browse this website, limited to standard web server logs (such as page requests and general error logs) kept for security and troubleshooting purposes, and the anonymous visit counter described in Section 6.
We use your personal data to:
We do not sell your personal data to third parties, and we do not use it for marketing emails or calls unless you've specifically asked us to keep you updated.
We process your data under the following lawful bases: performance of a contract (quoting and carrying out work you've requested, or taking payment for it); legitimate interests (responding to enquiries, improving our service, keeping site safety records); and legal obligation (accounting, health and safety, and DBS-related record keeping where applicable).
This website does not use marketing, advertising or tracking cookies. The only automated data collection on this site is a simple visit counter shown on the homepage, which increases by one each time the homepage loads. It stores nothing except a running total number — no IP addresses, no cookies, no device information, and nothing that identifies you individually. If we ever add analytics or marketing cookies in future, this policy will be updated first and, where required by law, a cookie consent banner will be shown before anything is set.
We share data with a limited number of third parties who help us run the business, each only for the specific purpose below:
Any third party handling data on our behalf is required to protect it to an equivalent standard, under a written agreement where required by law.
Some of the third parties listed in Section 7 (such as WhatsApp/Meta and Stripe) may process data outside the UK. Where this happens, we rely on their own compliance with UK GDPR transfer safeguards, such as adequacy decisions or Standard Contractual Clauses. We do not otherwise transfer your data outside the UK.
We keep enquiry and customer data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes described in Section 4, including statutory retention periods for accounting and health and safety records (typically up to 6 years), after which it is securely deleted or anonymised. If you make an enquiry that doesn't turn into a job, we'll keep it for a reasonable period in case you get back in touch, then delete it.
We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect the personal data we hold against unauthorised access, loss or misuse — including restricting who has access to customer records, using a reputable hosting provider, and using a trusted third-party payment processor (Stripe) rather than handling or storing card details ourselves. No method of transmission or storage is ever 100% secure, but we work to keep risk as low as reasonably possible.
We do not use automated decision-making or profiling that produces legal or similarly significant effects on you. Our online quote builder helps you put together a job description and hardware list, but every quote is reviewed by a person before it's confirmed.
Under UK GDPR, you have the right to:
To exercise any of these rights, contact us at info@cgsecurityinstallers.com. We'll respond within one month, as required by law. We may need to verify your identity before acting on a request, to make sure we're not handing data to the wrong person.
Our services are aimed at businesses, property owners and adults arranging work on a site. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children, and this website is not directed at them.
We may update this policy from time to time, for example if we add a new service, a new payment or booking feature, or change a supplier. The "effective date" at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision. If a change is significant, we'll make that clear on this page.
If you're unhappy with how we've handled your data, please contact us first at info@cgsecurityinstallers.com so we can try to put it right. You also have the right to complain directly to the UK's data protection regulator, the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO), at ico.org.uk or on 0303 123 1113.
