UK GDPR Compliance

This page explains how Mylne's Construction & Maintenance complies with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR), which governs the protection of personal data in the United Kingdom.

Scope and Applicability

Mylne's Construction & Maintenance is an informational website offering details about our construction and furniture maintenance services. We do not operate a user registration system, collect personal data through forms, or maintain a database of individual users. However, we do use website analytics and cookies to understand visitor behaviour and improve our online presence. This page outlines how these limited data processing activities comply with UK GDPR.

• Right of access – You may request confirmation of whether we process any of your personal data.
• Right to rectification – You may request correction of any inaccurate personal data we hold about you.
• Right to erasure – You may request deletion of your personal data where applicable.
• Right to restriction of processing – You may request we limit how we use your data under certain conditions.
• Right to data portability – You may request a copy of your data in a structured, machine-readable format.

How We Comply

We have implemented the following measures to ensure compliance:

• We use only essential cookies for site functionality and analytics (Google Analytics), with prior consent obtained via our cookie banner.
• We do not store or process personal data beyond what is necessary for analytics.
• All data collected is anonymised where possible and retained only for a maximum of 26 months.
• We do not transfer personal data outside the UK without ensuring adequate safeguards.

Data We Process

The only personal data we may process includes:

• IP addresses (anonymised by Google Analytics)
• Browser type, device type, and pages visited (for traffic analysis)
• Cookie identifiers (for session and preference tracking)

No names, email addresses, phone numbers, or other directly identifiable information are collected or stored.

Legal Basis for Processing

Our processing of personal data is based on legitimate interests under UK GDPR Article 6(1)(f), specifically to:

• Improve website performance and user experience
• Understand audience demographics and interests
• Ensure the security and functionality of our website

We balance these interests against your privacy rights and do not process data for profiling or automated decision-making.

Response Timeframes

No Discrimination Policy

We will not deny you services, charge you different prices, or provide a different quality of service because you have exercised your rights under UK GDPR. You are free to make requests without fear of retaliation.
