It is not stored with your message or emailed to us - Our web host records standard server logs (such as IP address, pages requested and browser type) to run and secure the site ### Do you have to give us this information? No. Giving us your details is voluntary, but we need a way to contact you to reply to an enquiry, and we need to know about your licences to consider a job application. Without them we may not be able to help. ## 4. How we use it, and our lawful basis - **Answering enquiries, quotes and audit requests**, and sending the security checklist you ask for: to take steps at your request before a contract, and our legitimate interest in responding to people who contact us. - **Considering job applications** and contacting you about suitable work: to take steps at your request before an employment contract, and our legitimate interest in recruiting. - **Keeping the site and our inbox secure**, including blocking spam: our legitimate interest in protecting our systems. - **Meeting legal obligations**, for example right-to-work and licensing checks if you join us: legal obligation. We do not send marketing emails to people who contact us through this website unless you ask us to.

Who we share it with - **Service providers** who host our website and email and process information only on our instructions. - **Screening partners**, such as our sister company Instant Check, only if your job application progresses to vetting and after we have told you. - **Professional advisers, regulators, the police or courts** where the law requires it or to protect people and property. ## 6.

When your browser fetches it, they receive your IP address and basic browser information: - **OpenStreetMap** map tiles and place search, for the maps on our pages - **postcodes.io**, which receives the postcode you type into our coverage checker so it can look it up, and the location of the town on our town pages to list nearby postcode districts - **Wikipedia / Wikimedia Commons** for local landmark photos on our town pages - **GO CCTV** (gocctv.co.uk), our sister company, for the product photos on our CCTV page Links to other sites, such as LinkedIn, Google Maps, Trustpilot or Police.uk, only share information if you choose to visit them.

How long we keep it - **Enquiries and quotes:** up to 2 years after our last contact, unless you become a client. - **Unsuccessful job applications:** up to 6 months after the role is filled or the application is closed, so we can contact you about similar work and deal with any questions about the decision. - **Successful applicants:** moved into your employment record and covered by our employee privacy notice. ### How we protect it The site is served only over an encrypted (HTTPS) connection, forms are protected against spam and repeated submissions, and only staff who need your information to deal with your enquiry or application can see it. ## 9.
