Privacy Policy

Last updated 18 October 2026

HL Web Design ("we", "us", "our") designs and hosts websites for small businesses, clubs and charities. This policy explains what personal data we collect through this website, hl-webdesign.co.uk, and how we look after it.

What we collect

• Enquiry form: your name, email address, optional business or club name, and the message you send us.
• Technical data: basic information your browser sends to our hosting provider as part of normal web traffic and security, such as your IP address and browser type.

We do not use advertising or tracking cookies on this site.

Why we use it

We use the details you submit through the form only to respond to your enquiry and, if you go on to become a client, to provide the service you've asked for. Our lawful bases are our legitimate interest in replying to enquiries, and performance of a contract where we agree to work together.

Who handles it

• Hosting & form handling: our hosting provider hosts this site and stores enquiry-form submissions on our behalf. Your data may be processed outside the UK/EEA under appropriate safeguards.
• Email: our email provider is used to receive and reply to your message.

We do not sell your personal data or share it for anyone else's marketing.

How long we keep it

We keep enquiry messages only for as long as we need them to deal with your enquiry and any work that follows, and then delete them.

Your rights

Under UK data protection law you can ask us to give you a copy of, correct, or delete the personal data we hold about you, or object to how we use it. To do so, contact us using the details below. You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk.
