Privacy policy

How we collect, use, store and protect the personal information you share with us, written plainly, without legal padding.

Who we are

Weir Construction Group is a construction company based at Salisbury Ave, Chesterfield S41 8PQ. We are the data controller for the personal information described in this policy. You can contact us by phone on 07891 214075 or by email at info@weirconstructiongroup.co.uk.

Information we collect

When you complete an estimate request or contact form we collect your name, telephone number, email address, the location of your property and the details of the project you describe. If you send drawings, planning references, photographs or specifications, we collect those too.

When you call or email us we keep a record of the enquiry and our correspondence so that we can pick up the conversation accurately later.

Our website may collect basic technical information such as your IP address, browser type and the pages you visited, which helps us understand how the site is used and keep it working correctly.

Why we use it

We use your information to respond to your enquiry, arrange a site visit, prepare and issue a quotation, carry out and administer any work you instruct, and to meet our legal, insurance, warranty and health-and-safety obligations.

Our lawful bases are your consent (when you submit an enquiry), the performance of a contract (once you instruct us), our legitimate interests in running and improving the business, and compliance with legal obligations such as building control, tax and construction record-keeping.

Marketing

We do not sell your information and we do not add you to a marketing list without your agreement. If you do agree to hear from us, you can opt out at any time by replying to any message or emailing us directly.

Who we share it with

We share information only where it is needed to deliver your project or to run the business, for example with architects, structural engineers, building control bodies, suppliers, our insurers and warranty provider, and our accountants. We also use third-party service providers to host this website, deliver our email and manage enquiries; they process information on our instructions only.

We disclose information to a public authority where we are required to do so by law.

How long we keep it

Enquiries that do not proceed to a quotation are deleted within twelve months. Quotations and project records are retained for as long as needed to administer the contract, our insurance and any guarantee period, and then for the periods required by tax and construction legislation. Records relating to structural work may be kept for the life of the guarantee.

Keeping it secure

We restrict access to personal information to the people who need it to do their job, use reputable providers for hosting and email, and take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect it against loss or unauthorised access.

Your rights

You have the right to ask what personal information we hold about you, to have inaccurate information corrected, to ask us to delete information we no longer need, to object to or restrict certain processing, to withdraw consent, and to receive a copy of information you provided to us.

To exercise any of these rights, email info@weirconstructiongroup.co.uk or call 07891 214075. We will respond within one month. If you are unhappy with how we have handled your information you can complain to the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk.

Embedded content such as our Google map and review feed may set its own cookies, governed by the provider's own privacy policy. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings, though parts of the site may then not work as intended.

Changes to this policy

We review this policy periodically and will publish any changes on this page. Please check back if you want to see how we handle information at a given time.
