4. Legal Basis for Processing
Under UK GDPR, we rely on the following lawful bases:
- Legitimate interests — for responding to business enquiries. We have a legitimate interest in responding to people who contact us about our products and services. This does not override your rights.
- Contract — when you purchase equipment or enter into a service agreement with us, processing your data is necessary to perform that contract.
- Legal obligation — where we are required by law to retain records (e.g. for tax and accounting purposes).
5. How Long We Keep Your Data
- Enquiry data — records of enquiries that did not result in a sale are kept for up to 2 years, after which they are deleted.
- Transaction data — records relating to completed sales and service agreements are kept for 7 years as required by UK tax and accounting law.
After the applicable retention period, data is securely deleted or anonymised.
6. Third Parties and Data Sharing
We do not sell your personal data to any third party.
We may share your data in limited circumstances:
- Finance partners — if you request a finance quote, we will need to share your business details with our finance partners for the purpose of assessing and providing that quote. We will always tell you before doing so.
- Professional advisors — accountants or legal advisors as required.
- eBay integration — our website pulls product listing data from eBay via their Browse API. This is a one-way pull of product information only. No customer data is sent to or shared with eBay.
We do not transfer your personal data outside the UK or European Economic Area.
