Information we collect

  • Contact details: your name, phone number, email address and postcode.
  • Details of your enquiry: the service, timing and any message you provide.
  • Photographs you send us by WhatsApp or email.
  • The country of your internet connection, derived from your IP address when you submit the enquiry form.
  • Website usage data, as described under Cookies and analytics.

You do not have to provide this information, but we cannot respond to an enquiry without your contact details.

Legal obligation.
Analytics cookies
Your consent.
Cookies and analytics

Cookies and analytics

Analytics cookies are set only with your consent. You can change your choice at any time: open cookie preferences, or use Cookie preferences in the footer of every page.

We use PostHog, hosted in the EU, to understand how the website is used. If you accept analytics cookies, PostHog records how you use the website, including pages viewed, clicks, scrolling and mouse movement (heatmaps), whether the enquiry form was started or sent and which service you picked, the site you came from, your device and browser, and approximate location. It does not receive your name, contact details, postcode or message. Session replay is switched off, and your IP address is discarded after an approximate location is derived. If you have not made a choice, or you reject analytics cookies, PostHog receives only a cookieless visit count.

Cloudflare Turnstile protects the enquiry form against automated abuse. It loads when you open the enquiry form or start filling it in, and does not set a cookie on our domain.

Who we share it with

  • Service providers who host this website, store enquiries and send email (Cloudflare and Resend) and provide analytics (PostHog), acting on our instructions. Cloudflare acts as an independent controller for Turnstile.
  • Google, which provides the typefaces this website loads and so receives your IP address.
  • WhatsApp (Meta), which carries messages and photographs you send us by WhatsApp under its own terms.
  • Licensed waste facilities, which receive the information required on the hazardous waste consignment note.
  • Regulators, law enforcement and other public authorities, where required by law.

PostHog Inc. is based in the United States. Any transfer of personal information outside the UK is protected by appropriate safeguards, such as the UK Addendum to the EU standard contractual clauses.

This form needs JavaScript to check you are not a robot, and it is not running. Call 07708 761540 or send a WhatsApp message and we will pick it up the same way.

Essential cookies keep the site working, and the only one we store without asking is your cookie choice itself. Until you choose, and if you reject, PostHog counts visits with a privacy-preserving hash and sets no PostHog cookies. Full analytics (clicks, heatmaps and a lasting ID) runs only if you switch it on, and session replay is not used. Turnstile (the bot check on the enquiry form) loads when you open the enquiry form or start filling it in, not on every page.
