Website Privacy Statement

The Purpose of this privacy statement is to explain how DayBuild Websites Ltd processes personal data to fulfil its data protection responsibilities. This statement will be supplemented by ‘specific to client’ privacy notices when needed. The scope of this statement covers all related activities by the staff of DayBuild Websites Ltd referred to as DBW for the remainder of this document.

The Role of DWB in data protection terms is that of a data controller where it determines the purpose and use of personal data collected. Once received it becomes the responsibility of the DWB privacy manager (PM) to ensure that it is processed in accordance with the latest UK data protection legislation. You can contact the PM using hello@daybuild.website. DWB is registered with the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO).

The personal data processed by DWB will be basic contact information for the purposes of responding to general enquiries, business development, preparing contracts and setting up invoices. If DWB is not given all of the required personal data, it may result in an incomplete service being provided.

DWB’s duty of confidentiality means that DWB staff will treat clients’ personal data with due respect and in confidence. It is only disclosed to those that need to know it. DWB also expects the same duty of confidentiality of all third parties with whom it shares personal data. DWB uses reasonable organisational and technical measures to ensure personal data is kept secure.

DWB processes personal data against a lawful basis as described below:

• To respond to your general enquiries and to promote our services, we will use our legitimate interests
• To comply with our legal obligations
• To fulfil our contractual obligations including their prior preparation
• When processing a pre-defined purpose for which your consent has been sought and recorded prior to that processing commencing

In all cases the processing of personal data by DWB shall be:

• Processed lawfully, fairly and transparently
• Collected for specified, explicit and legitimate purposes
• Adequate, relevant and limited to what is necessary (and no more)
• Accurate and, when necessary, updated
• Kept for no longer than is necessary
• Processed in a manner that ensures appropriate security.

DWB will share personal data, but only when absolutely necessary, with some or all of the following third parties:

• The Inland Revenue (HMRC)
• An accountant appointed by us
• Fasthosts for domain hosting and SSL certificates
• Specified professional consultants in support of the service, notified at the time
• Unspecified recipients but only when compelled to do so for legal reasons

DWB operates in a paperless environment where the first line processing takes place on standard office IT equipment based in and around the company’s registered premises. In addition, use is made cloud services such as Microsoft One Drive, Dropbox, Backblaze and Remarkable (for unstructured notes) based in the EEA. DBW uses SAGE accounting.

DWB follows a retention schedule to determine the length of time it holds different types of personal data. The retention schedule is shown below:

• Routine correspondence for casual enquiries in emails will be stored for one year
• Service contract related data will be retained throughout the life of the engagement plus another 10 years following the termination of the contract
• Contact data is stored indefinitely unless a valid request to erasure is received from the interested data subject
• Financial records and invoices, which may include personal data, will be retained for 6 years after the end of the current tax year of processing
• By exception, documentation that includes personal data may be retained by DWB beyond the schedule, but only for a specific purpose and only when DWB believes there is a legitimate interest or a legal obligation to do so

At the end of the retention schedule DWB will either return, destroy or delete your personal data and any associated emails or relevant documentation. If it is technically impractical to delete electronic copies of personal data, it will put it beyond operational use. It should be noted that DWB allows up to 3 months after the retention schedule to complete the action.
