Last updated: 17 September 2026
1. Who we are
Anton Plumbing & Heating is the data controller for personal information collected through this website and in connection with enquiries and services. We operate from Chippenham, Wiltshire. Our postal address is [insert business postal address]. You can contact us at info@antonplumbing.co.uk or on 073 7910 9737.
2. Information we collect
When you contact us, request a quotation or book work, we may collect your name, email address, telephone number, property address or postcode, service required, appointment details and the information you provide about the job. If work is carried out, we may also keep quotations, invoices, payment records and correspondence.
The website may collect technical information including IP address, device and browser type, pages viewed, approximate location, referring website and session information. The contact form includes a hidden anti-spam field. It sends the details you enter to our business email address; the website does not intentionally add those form details to Google Analytics.
3. How and why we use information
We use personal information to respond to enquiries, arrange visits, prepare quotations, provide plumbing and heating services, communicate about work, issue invoices, maintain business and tax records, protect the website from misuse and understand how the website performs.
4. Our lawful bases
We generally process enquiry and customer information because it is necessary to take steps at your request before entering into a contract or to perform a contract with you. We may process records to comply with legal obligations, including accounting and tax requirements. We rely on legitimate interests where appropriate to administer the business, maintain security, handle complaints and improve our services. Where consent is required—for example, for non-essential analytics cookies—we rely on consent, which can be withdrawn.
5. Who receives information
We may share information only where necessary with hosting, email and IT providers; payment, accounting or professional advisers; product manufacturers or suppliers where this is needed for a warranty or order; subcontractors where agreed and appropriate; and public authorities where required by law. Google receives website analytics data when analytics is enabled. We do not sell personal information.
6. International processing
Some technology providers, including Google, may process information outside the United Kingdom. Where this happens, the provider is responsible for using an appropriate legal transfer mechanism and safeguards. Please review the provider’s own privacy information for further details.
7. How long we keep information
We keep information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected. Unsuccessful enquiries are normally deleted when no longer needed for follow-up. Customer, quotation, invoice and payment records may be retained for the period needed to deal with warranties, complaints, insurance, accounting and legal obligations. Analytics retention is controlled through the Google Analytics property settings and should be confirmed by Anton before this policy is finalised.
8. Security
We take reasonable steps to protect personal information against accidental loss, misuse, unauthorised access or disclosure. No internet or email system is completely secure, so please avoid sending unnecessary sensitive information through the enquiry form.
9. Your rights
Depending on the circumstances, you may have rights to access, correct or delete your personal information; restrict or object to its use; and receive information you provided in a portable format. Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time. These rights can be subject to legal conditions and exemptions.
10. Complaints
Please contact us first so we can try to resolve your concern. You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) through ico.org.uk.
11. Cookies and analytics
For details of the website’s Google Analytics cookies and your choices, see our Cookie Policy.
12. Contact
Privacy questions and rights requests can be sent to info@antonplumbing.co.uk.
