Man with Van Isleworth Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how Man with Van Isleworth collects, uses, stores and protects personal data relating to our services. It applies to all Man with Van Isleworth customers and prospective customers in the Isleworth area who contact us, request a quote, make a booking, or otherwise interact with our services.
We are committed to processing your personal data lawfully, fairly and transparently in accordance with the UK General Data Protection Regulation, the EU General Data Protection Regulation where applicable, and relevant data protection laws.
Personal Data We Collect
We only collect personal data that is necessary for providing our man and van services and managing our relationship with you. The categories of data we may collect include:
Identification and contact details, such as your name, postal address, collection and delivery addresses, and any other contact information you choose to provide.
Booking and service information, such as preferred moving dates, time windows, property access details, parking information, inventory or description of items to be moved, and any specific instructions related to the service.
Communication records, such as notes of telephone conversations, and records of any messages or correspondence you send to us, including queries, feedback or complaints.
Payment and transaction information, such as details of the service purchased, the amount paid, method of payment, and date of transaction. We do not store full payment card details; where electronic payments are processed, they are handled by secure third party payment processors.
Technical and usage data, such as basic information about how you contact us online, including device type, general location and pages visited, where this is strictly necessary for the operation and security of our website or online booking forms.
How We Collect Personal Data
We collect your personal data in several ways, including:
Directly from you when you contact us to request a quote, confirm a booking, ask a question, or provide feedback or a review.
When you provide information during the performance of a job, for example at the collection or delivery address or when updating your instructions.
Indirectly from third parties where this is necessary to provide our services, such as property agents or third party booking partners, where they have a lawful basis to share your details with us.
Automatically through necessary technical processes when you visit our website or interact with our online services, to enable functionality, security and basic analytics.
Lawful Bases for Processing
We rely on the following lawful bases under GDPR to process your personal data:
Contract: We process your personal data when it is necessary to take steps at your request before entering into a contract, such as providing a quote, and to perform our contract with you, such as carrying out the man and van service you have booked.
Legitimate interests: We process personal data where it is necessary for our legitimate business interests, provided your interests and fundamental rights do not override these. This includes managing our business operations, improving our services, preventing fraud, keeping appropriate records, handling customer queries and maintaining security.
Legal obligation: We process certain personal data to comply with our legal and regulatory obligations, such as tax and accounting requirements, and responding to lawful requests from public authorities.
Consent: In limited circumstances, we may rely on your consent, for example where we send you certain types of marketing communications that are not covered by our legitimate interests. Where processing is based on consent, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time.
How We Use Personal Data
We use the personal data we collect for the following purposes:
To provide quotes, confirm availability and manage bookings for our man with van services in the Isleworth area.
To plan and carry out collections, deliveries and related logistics, including contacting you about access, timing and any changes to your requirements.
To communicate with you regarding your enquiries, bookings, service updates, invoices, payment confirmations and after-service follow up.
To manage customer accounts, maintain internal records, and handle complaints, disputes or claims.
To improve our services, operations, training and customer experience based on feedback and service usage.
To comply with legal obligations and assist law enforcement or regulatory authorities where required by law.
To protect our rights, property or safety, and that of our customers and staff, including the prevention and detection of fraud or misuse of our services.
Data Sharing and Processors
We do not sell your personal data. We may share your personal data with carefully selected third parties where necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy and where there is a lawful basis to do so.
These third parties may act as data processors, processing personal data on our behalf and under our instructions. Examples include:
Information technology and hosting providers who supply and support our business systems, websites, email services, and data storage.
Payment service providers who securely process electronic payments and help prevent fraud.
Professional advisers, such as accountants or legal advisers, where we require professional services related to our business operations.
Booking platforms or business partners who may pass on your details to us when you arrange a man and van service through them.
We require all processors to use appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data and to process it only in accordance with our instructions and applicable law.
We may also share personal data with public authorities, regulators or law enforcement agencies if required to do so by law or where necessary to protect our legal rights.
International Data Transfers
Where possible, we aim to keep your personal data within the United Kingdom or European Economic Area. If we use a service provider located outside these territories, we will ensure that an adequate level of protection is in place, for example through recognised data transfer mechanisms or contractual safeguards in line with data protection laws.
Data Retention
We keep personal data only for as long as is necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, including for satisfying legal, accounting or reporting requirements.
In general, we may retain customer and booking records for a number of years after the date of your last service or interaction with us, to enable us to respond to queries, handle complaints, and meet legal obligations.
Where personal data is no longer needed, we will either securely delete or anonymise it so that it can no longer be associated with an identifiable individual.
Security of Your Personal Data
We take appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised or unlawful processing, accidental loss, destruction or damage. These measures include access controls, secure storage, staff awareness and procedures for handling data incidents.
While we strive to protect your data, no system can be completely secure. You should take care when sending personal information and ensure that any devices or accounts you use to communicate with us are kept secure.
Your Data Protection Rights
Under GDPR and applicable data protection laws, you have several rights in relation to your personal data. These rights apply to all Man with Van Isleworth customers and prospective customers in the Isleworth area, subject to certain legal limitations and exemptions.
Right of access: You have the right to request confirmation of whether we process your personal data and to obtain a copy of that data, along with certain information about how it is used.
Right to rectification: You have the right to ask us to correct inaccurate personal data and to complete incomplete data.
Right to erasure: In certain circumstances, you have the right to request that we delete your personal data, for example where it is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected and we have no legal obligation to retain it.
Right to restriction of processing: You may request that we restrict the processing of your personal data in specific situations, such as while we are verifying its accuracy or considering an objection you have raised.
Right to data portability: Where processing is based on consent or contract and is carried out by automated means, you may have the right to receive your personal data in a commonly used format and to transmit it to another controller, where technically feasible.
Right to object: You have the right to object to our processing of your personal data where it is based on legitimate interests, including profiling, or where it is used for direct marketing. We will stop processing unless we have compelling legitimate grounds that override your interests or where the processing is required for legal claims.
Right to withdraw consent: Where we rely on your consent to process your personal data, you may withdraw this consent at any time. Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before consent was withdrawn.
You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority if you believe that your data protection rights have been infringed.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, legal requirements or services. Any significant changes will be communicated through an updated version made available with our service information. We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically to stay informed about how we handle your personal data.
