Privacy Policy
This policy explains what personal data Garry's Garden Services collects through the website, what happens when you use the contact buttons, and what rights you have under UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018.
Who controls your data
The data controller is Garry's Garden Services, trading as Garry's Garden Services. Legal details still need confirmation: [client to confirm: full legal name / sole trader or company name]. Company number: [client to confirm: company number, if any]. Service address: [client to confirm: postal address for privacy notices].

What this website actually does
The site does not have an on-site contact form, account system, newsletter, or payment checkout. The quote panel on the home page is a browser-side helper that builds a draft message and opens WhatsApp, SMS, or email on your device. Nothing is submitted to the website server.
The live site loads Google Fonts from Google, a Cloudflare email-obfuscation script to protect the public email address, and a browser fetch to Open-Meteo for the weather card shown on the home page. There is no analytics tag and no tracking pixel.
What we collect
If you contact Garry, we may receive your name, phone number, email address, postcode or town, service request, message, photos, and any notes you choose to add.
The website itself also receives ordinary technical request data needed to deliver and secure the page, such as IP address, browser type, device details, requested URL, and timestamps. Google Fonts and Open-Meteo may also receive the data your browser sends when it requests their resources.
Why we use it
We use enquiry data to respond to you, check the job, prepare a quote, and arrange work. The lawful basis is taking steps at your request before entering a contract and, where a job goes ahead, performance of that contract.
We use technical request data to keep the site secure, functioning, and available. That processing is based on legitimate interests.
Where the data goes
The website is hosted by Cloudflare Pages. Google Fonts serves the web fonts used on the site. Open-Meteo serves the weather data requested by the home page. If you choose to send a message through WhatsApp, SMS, email, or Facebook, the relevant third-party platform handles the message delivery on your device and under its own terms.
The site does not send form submissions to a server and does not use an email marketing or CRM platform.
Retention
Enquiries that do not lead to work are kept only as long as needed to handle the request and manage follow-up, then deleted or archived within a reasonable period. If a job goes ahead, records are kept for the period needed for tax, accounting, and business records, usually six years after the end of the relevant tax year.
Messages stored in WhatsApp, Gmail, Facebook, or on a phone are also subject to those providers' and devices' own retention settings.
Your rights
You can ask to access, correct, erase, restrict, or object to the processing of your data, and you can request portability where that applies. You can also withdraw consent if we ever rely on consent for a specific activity.
If you are unhappy with how your data is handled, you can complain to the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk.
