Last updated: 2 September 2026
This privacy policy explains how BeBest Plumbing and Drainage Ltd (“we”, “us”, “our”) collects, uses and protects your personal data when you use this website or contact us to enquire about or book a plumbing or drainage service.
We are committed to protecting your privacy in accordance with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018.
1. Who we are (data controller)
The data controller responsible for your personal data is:
Crawley, West Sussex, United Kingdom
Email: hello@bebestplumbing.example
Phone: 01293 000000
We do not have a dedicated Data Protection Officer (DPO). For any data protection queries, please contact us using the details above.
2. What personal data we collect and why
We only collect personal data that is necessary for the purposes described below.
| What we collect | Why we collect it | Legal basis |
|---|---|---|
| Name, phone number, postcode, service required, job details | To respond to your booking or callback request and to provide plumbing or drainage services | Performance of a contract (or steps taken at your request prior to entering a contract) — UK GDPR Article 6(1)(b) |
| Anonymous website usage data (pages visited, clicks, traffic source) | To understand how visitors use our site so we can improve it. Collected by default in a non-identifying form — we record which pages and buttons are used and where you came from, but not who you are. This runs automatically and does not require a cookie choice, in line with UK PECR guidance for strictly analytical, non-intrusive use. | Legitimate interests — UK GDPR Article 6(1)(f) |
| Session recordings of your visit, detailed behaviour analytics, and approximate location | To identify usability issues on the website. Inputs such as phone numbers are always masked. Collected only if you choose “Accept all” on the cookie banner. | Consent — UK GDPR Article 6(1)(a) / UK PECR Regulation 6 |
| IP address and browser/device information | For website security and to detect technical errors. | Legitimate interests — UK GDPR Article 6(1)(f) |
We do not process any special category data and we do not carry out automated decision-making or profiling that produces legal or similarly significant effects on you.
5. How long we keep your data
| What we collect | Why we collect it | Legal basis |
|---|---|---|
| Booking and enquiry records (in our Telegram group) | Retained in the group for as long as needed to complete and follow up the job, then deleted | |
| PostHog analytics events | 13 months (PostHog default retention period) | |
| PostHog session recordings (accepted visitors only) | 90 days |
We review the personal data we hold periodically and delete anything we no longer need.
6. Your rights under UK GDPR
You have the right to: access the personal data we hold about you; ask us to correct inaccurate data; ask us to delete your data where we no longer have a lawful basis to hold it; ask us to restrict processing in certain circumstances; receive your data in a portable format where processing is based on consent or contract; object to processing based on legitimate interests; and withdraw consent at any time for anything based on your consent (analytics cookies), without affecting the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal.
To exercise any of these rights, contact us at hello@bebestplumbing.example or by phone on 01293 000000. We will respond within one calendar month.
