Our lawful bases for processing

We process personal information using the following lawful bases:

Contract

We may need to retain and process information to comply with tax, accounting, insurance, health and safety or other legal requirements.

Legitimate interests

We may process information where reasonably necessary to operate, protect and improve our business, prevent fraud, manage complaints and provide customer support.

Consent

We rely on your consent for optional marketing and for nonessential website cookies where consent is legally required. You may withdraw your consent at any time.

Payments

Online deposit payments are securely processed by Stripe.

We do not store your complete card number, security code or full payment card details. Stripe processes your payment and provides us with confirmation, payment status and a transaction reference.

Stripe processes personal information under its own privacy policy and security procedures.

A £50 deposit is collected when you make a booking. The remaining balance is payable in cash upon delivery unless we agree another payment arrangement with you.

  • Products and equipment hired
  • Booking date and times
  • Delivery and collection address
  • Venue name and contact details
  • Access and parking instructions
  • Surface type and setup information
  • Customer notes and special instructions

This information may appear in our WooCommerce order records, WooCommerce Bookings records, business calendar and confirmation emails.

Who may receive your information?

We only share information where necessary to operate our website, process payments, fulfil bookings or comply with the law.

Service providers may include:

  • Stripe for payment processing
  • WooCommerce and its extensions for orders and bookings
  • WordPress and our website service providers
  • SiteGround for website hosting and security
  • Google for calendar synchronisation, analytics or other services that we enable
  • Email and communications providers
  • Accountants, insurers, legal advisers or regulatory authorities where necessary

These providers may process information on our behalf under their own privacy policies and contractual obligations.

We do not sell or rent your personal information.

International data transfers

Some service providers may process information outside the United Kingdom. Where this happens, we expect appropriate safeguards to be used in accordance with UK data protection law.

How long do we keep your information?

We retain booking, transaction and accounting information for as long as reasonably necessary to provide our services and meet our legal, tax, insurance and accounting obligations.

Certain business and transaction records may be retained for at least six years.

Information connected to an accident, complaint, legal matter or insurance claim may be retained for longer where necessary.

Marketing information is retained until you unsubscribe, withdraw consent or we determine that it is no longer required.

When information is no longer required, it will be deleted or anonymised where reasonably possible.

Marketing communications

We only send optional email marketing where you have actively agreed to receive it or where another lawful basis allows us to contact you.

Agreeing to marketing is not a condition of making a booking.

You can unsubscribe using the link in a marketing email or contact us at bookings@lastminutebouncycastles.com.
