Privacy notice
How this site handles your information, in plain English.
Using a calculator
You can use every calculator on this site without giving us anything. The answers you type are sent to our server, used to work out your estimate, and are not stored against you. We do not require an email address to show you a result, and we never will.
Requesting quotes
If you complete the quote form we collect your name, email address, phone number, postcode, project type, timescale and anything you write in the message box. If you came from a calculator we also record the estimate you were looking at, because it helps a builder quote accurately.
We use this to match you with builders who work in your area and do that kind of work, and we pass your details to them so they can contact you. That is the entire purpose, and we ask for your explicit consent before doing it. Our lawful basis is your consent.
What else we record
With a quote enquiry we also store the page you were on, the referring site, any campaign parameters in the link, your browser user-agent string, and a salted one-way hash of your IP address. The hash lets us spot abuse without holding your actual IP address.
Analytics and cookies
No analytics cookies are set unless you agree to them. If you accept, we use them only to understand which calculators people find useful. If you decline, the site works exactly the same. You can change your mind by clearing this site's data in your browser.
How long we keep it
Quote enquiries are kept for two years, so we can deal with any dispute about work that followed, and are then deleted.
Your rights
Under UK GDPR you can ask for a copy of what we hold, ask us to correct it, ask us to delete it, or withdraw your consent at any time. Email hello@liammcmahonbelfast.co.uk and we will action it. If you are not happy with how we have handled it, you can complain to the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk.
Builders we pass details to
Builders who receive your enquiry are separate data controllers and are responsible for their own handling of your information. We only pass details where you have consented.
