What we collect
When you submit the contact form on this site, we collect:
- Your name
- Your email address
- Your phone number (if provided)
- The details of your enquiry
- The page you submitted from and basic referrer information, used to measure which content drives enquiries
We do not collect or store any other personal information through this site. We do not use advertising or behavioural-tracking cookies.
Why we use it
We use what you submit to respond to your enquiry, prepare quotes, and arrange site visits for our railings services. Our legal basis is legitimate interest — responding to a direct request you have initiated.
Who we share it with
We use a small number of trusted service providers to operate this site:
- Cloudflare, Inc. — hosts the site and provides edge security. Cloudflare may briefly process technical request information (IP address, user agent) for security and performance.
- Lumara Forms (Lumara Digital) — receives the contact form submission and forwards it to our email inbox. Submissions are not stored long-term by Lumara Forms.
We do not sell personal information, share it with advertisers, or use it for marketing purposes other than direct follow-up to your enquiry.
How long we keep it
Enquiry emails are kept in our mailbox for as long as is reasonably necessary to handle the project or for follow-up service. We routinely delete or archive enquiries that have not led to a project after 24 months. Project-related correspondence is kept for the statutory record-keeping period required for our business records (typically 6 years).
Your rights
Under UK GDPR you have the right to:
- Access the personal information we hold about you
- Correct inaccurate records
- Ask us to delete your information (where we are no longer required to keep it)
- Object to or restrict how we use your information
- Request a copy of what we hold in a portable format
- Lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office (ico.org.uk)
To exercise any of these rights, email Info@wfe.uk.com. We will respond within one month.
Cookies and tracking
This site does not set tracking or advertising cookies. The contact form sends a small, anonymous beacon to Lumara Forms when it is shown on the page, used only to count form views for analytics. No personally identifying information is included in this beacon.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. The "last updated" date at the top of the page reflects when changes were last made. For our current services, see the railingslondon.uk homepage.
