Data Retention

Cleaner Uxbridge retains personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, including satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.

Payment and transaction records are kept for as long as required by applicable financial and tax regulations.

Communication records are retained for a reasonable period to allow us to respond to queries, handle complaints, and maintain a record of our interactions.

When personal data is no longer required, we will securely delete or anonymise it in accordance with our data retention procedures and applicable legal requirements.

Data Sharing and Processors

Cleaner Uxbridge may share your personal data with carefully selected third parties who act as data processors on our behalf. These processors only process your data in accordance with our instructions and for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy.

Categories of data processors may include:

Payment service providers who process payments and manage transactions securely.

IT and systems providers who support our booking, scheduling, communication, and data storage systems.

Professional advisers such as accountants or legal professionals who assist us in meeting our legal and regulatory obligations.

We require all processors to implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data and to comply with data protection laws. We do not sell your personal data to third parties.

We may also disclose personal data where required to comply with a legal obligation, to protect your vital interests or those of another person, or to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims.

International Data Transfers

Where we use service providers or systems that are located outside the United Kingdom, personal data may be transferred to countries that may have different data protection laws. In such cases, we ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place, such as standard contractual clauses or other legally recognised mechanisms, to provide a level of protection for your personal data that is essentially equivalent to that in the United Kingdom.

Security of Your Personal Data

Cleaner Uxbridge takes the security of your personal data seriously. We implement appropriate technical and organisational measures designed to protect personal data against accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorised disclosure, or access.

These measures include restricted access to personal data, the use of secure systems and tools, and appropriate staff awareness. While we take all reasonable steps to protect your data, no system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

The right to rectification. You have the right to request that we correct any inaccurate or incomplete personal data we hold about you.

The right to erasure. In certain circumstances, you may request that we delete your personal data, for example where it is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or where you have withdrawn consent.
