We collect personal data in the following ways:
Directly from you: When you request a quote, book a removal, contact us for information, leave feedback, or otherwise communicate with us.
From third parties: In some cases, we may receive personal data from referral partners, comparison platforms, landlords or letting agents, or business partners when you have requested or indicated an interest in our services.
Automatically: Through our website and digital channels, using cookies and similar technologies to collect technical and usage data, where allowed by applicable law.
We only process personal data where we have a lawful basis under data protection law. Depending on the context, we may rely on the following bases:
Performance of a contract: We process personal data where it is necessary to provide our services, including providing quotes, managing bookings, carrying out removals, communicating about arrangements, billing, and providing customer support.
Compliance with legal obligations: We may process personal data to comply with legal and regulatory requirements, such as record-keeping, tax, and accounting obligations.
Legitimate interests: We may process personal data where it is necessary for our legitimate business interests and where your interests and fundamental rights do not override those interests. This may include managing our business operations, improving our services, handling enquiries, ensuring the security of our systems, and preventing fraud or misuse.
Consent: In limited circumstances, we may rely on your consent, for example for certain types of marketing communications where consent is required. Where we rely on consent, you can withdraw it at any time by contacting us or using any applicable unsubscribe mechanisms.
We may use your personal data for the following purposes:
To provide and manage removal and related services, including preparing and issuing quotes, confirming bookings, planning and executing moves, and arranging additional services.
To communicate with you about your enquiries, bookings, changes to our terms or policies, and to respond to any questions or complaints.
To manage payments, invoicing, and accounting, including processing and reconciling payments and maintaining financial records.
To improve our services and operations, including monitoring service quality, analysing usage of our website, and developing our business.
To send you information about services that may be of interest, where permitted by law and subject to your marketing preferences.
To protect our rights, property, and safety, and that of our customers and third parties, including preventing and detecting fraud or misuse of our services.
We may share personal data with carefully selected third parties where necessary and lawful. These third parties may act as data processors on our behalf or as separate controllers.
Service providers and subcontractors: We may share data with removal teams, storage facilities, vehicle hire providers, packaging suppliers, IT and software providers, payment processors, and other service providers that support our operations. These parties act as processors and are contractually required to process personal data only on our instructions and to protect it appropriately.
Professional advisers: We may share information with our accountants, legal advisers, and other professional consultants where needed for business management, legal advice, or dispute resolution.
Authorities and regulators: We may disclose personal data where required by law, regulation, or court order, or to protect our legal rights or those of others.
We do not sell personal data to third parties. Where we engage processors, we ensure that appropriate contractual and security measures are in place to safeguard your data.
Our primary operations are based in the United Kingdom. If personal data is transferred outside the UK or European Economic Area by our service providers, we will ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place, such as adequacy regulations, standard contractual clauses, or other legally recognised mechanisms to protect your data.
We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, including meeting any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.
In general, we keep customer and contract records for a period aligned with limitation periods for legal claims and applicable statutory requirements. Enquiry records may be kept for a shorter period if no contract is formed. Technical and usage data is retained for as long as needed for security, analysis, or functional purposes, subject to applicable laws.
When personal data is no longer required, we will either delete it securely or anonymise it so that it can no longer be associated with an identifiable individual.
We take appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against unauthorised access, accidental loss, alteration, or disclosure. These measures may include restricted access controls, secure storage, encryption or pseudonymisation where appropriate, staff training, and regular review of our security arrangements.
While we take reasonable steps to protect your data, no system can be guaranteed to be fully secure. You are responsible for taking reasonable steps to protect your own information when communicating with us or using our services.
Under data protection law, you have a number of rights in relation to your personal data. These rights may be subject to certain conditions and legal exceptions. Your rights include:
Right of access: You can request a copy of the personal data we hold about you and information about how we use it.
Right to rectification: You can ask us to correct or complete any inaccurate or incomplete personal data.
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 or where you have withdrawn consent and there is no other lawful basis.
Right to restriction: You can ask us to restrict the processing of your personal data in certain situations, such as while a challenge to the accuracy of the data or the lawfulness of processing is being considered.
Right to object: You can object to our processing of your personal data where we rely on legitimate interests, including for direct marketing. We will stop processing unless we have compelling legitimate grounds or the processing is for legal claims.
Right to data portability: In certain cases, you can request that we provide your personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format or transmit it directly to another controller where technically feasible.
Right to withdraw consent: Where we rely on your consent to process your personal data, you can withdraw that consent at any time. This will not affect the lawfulness of processing before consent was withdrawn.
If you wish to exercise any of these rights, you can contact us using the contact details provided in our standard communications or on our website.
If you have concerns about how we handle your personal data, you should contact us in the first instance so we can try to resolve the issue. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the UK supervisory authority for data protection. Details of how to do this are available from the Information Commissioner's Office.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, legal requirements, or for other operational reasons. Any updates will take effect when the revised policy is made available. We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically to stay informed about how we protect your personal data.
