GDPR Compliance & Privacy Policy
The most information we hold on any given client is what you give us, i.e. your name, address, telephone number and email address (if applicable), along with any data related to your electrical installation such as certificates issued and photographs we may have taken for planning the job or as before/after comparisons. This information is available to us. Other subcontractors or service providers not specifically named here do not have access to this information. No payment details are collated or stored by Hamilton Dynamics, so your credit card and bank account are quite safe from our end if you choose to appoint us to undertake your electrical work and disclose such methods. Communications you receive from us may be written or verbal, but would only be directly related to your enquiry. We don’t send out marketing rubbish such as email offers, leaflets, vouchers, freebies, letters or any other unsolicited offers or materials, and we only engage in passive advertising such as print advertisements in certain selected publications.
Here’s the legalities:
