5. Cookies and website analytics

Cookies and similar technologies are small files or identifiers used to operate websites and understand how they are used.

We may use:

You can withdraw or change your consent at any time using the website’s cookie settings. You can also control cookies through your browser, although blocking essential cookies may affect parts of the website.

We do not sell personal information.

8. International transfers

Some technology, analytics, email, cloud or communications providers may store or access information outside the United Kingdom.

Where personal information is transferred internationally, we take reasonable steps to ensure that an appropriate legal safeguard is in place. Depending on the destination and provider, this may include a UK adequacy regulation or approved contractual protections.

  • Complaints, claims and insurance records may be kept for as long as necessary to resolve or defend the matter.
  • Analytics information is retained for the period configured within the analytics service and stated in the website’s cookie information.
  • Cookie-consent records may be retained to demonstrate and remember your choices.

Information may be deleted earlier when it is no longer required, or kept longer where there is a legal, insurance or dispute-related reason.

10. How we protect information

We use reasonable organisational and technical measures to protect personal information against accidental loss, misuse, unauthorised access, alteration or disclosure.

Access is limited to people and service providers who need the information for legitimate business purposes. However, no website, email service or internet transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

12. Complaints

Please contact Prestige Roofers & Builders Ltd first if you have a concern about how we have used your information. We will try to investigate and resolve the matter.
