Information we collect

When you contact us or request a quote, we may collect:

  • Your first and last name

  • Your email address

  • Your telephone number, if provided

  • Your postcode or location

  • Details about your garden or proposed project

  • Any other information you choose to include in your message

Work enquiries: If you contact us about working with the business, we may collect your name, contact details, work experience, qualifications and any other information you choose to provide.

The website may also collect technical information through cookies, such as your device type, browser and how you use the website. Please read our Cookie Policy for more information.

How we use your information

We use your information to:

  • Respond to enquiries

  • Discuss your requirements

  • Prepare and provide quotations

  • Arrange and deliver requested services

  • Communicate with you about your project

  • Maintain appropriate business records

  • Protect the website and prevent misuse

  • Meet legal, tax or regulatory obligations

We use information submitted through work enquiries to consider your suitability and respond to you about possible work opportunities.

We do not use contact-form information for unrelated marketing unless you have specifically agreed to receive it.

Our lawful basis

We normally process enquiry information because it is necessary to take steps at your request before entering into an agreement with you.

We may also process information where it is in our legitimate interests to respond to enquiries, manage the business, provide services and maintain appropriate records.

Where consent is required—for example, for certain non-essential cookies—we will ask for it separately. You may withdraw your consent at any time.

How long we keep information

General enquiries that do not become customer projects will normally be retained for no longer than two years after the last contact.

If you become a customer, some records may need to be retained for longer where required for accounting, tax, legal or insurance purposes.

Information received through work enquiries will normally be kept for up to six months, unless you agree that we may retain it for longer or it relates to an ongoing working relationship.

Sharing your information

We do not sell your personal information.

We may share limited information with trusted service providers when necessary to operate the website, communicate with you or provide the requested service. This may include Squarespace, email providers and professional advisers.

Information may also be disclosed where required by law or where necessary to establish, exercise or defend legal rights.

Some technology providers may process information outside the United Kingdom. Where this happens, we rely on the safeguards provided by those service providers and applicable data-protection law.

Cookies

This website may use cookies needed for the website to function and, where enabled, cookies used for analytics or similar purposes.

Non-essential cookies should not be placed without your consent. You can manage your preferences using the website’s cookie banner. Please read our Cookie Policy for more information.

Your rights

Depending on the circumstances, you may have the right to:

  • Ask for a copy of your personal information

  • Ask us to correct inaccurate information

  • Ask us to delete your information

  • Ask us to restrict how information is used

  • Object to certain uses of your information

  • Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent

  • Ask for certain information in a portable format

To make a request, email aglmike@outlook.com. We may need to confirm your identity before completing your request.

You may also raise a concern with the UK Information Commissioner’s Office at ico.org.uk.
