Privacy Policy
Last updated: 7 October 2026
This policy explains how New Forest Garden Maintenance (“we”, “us”) uses personal information collected through this website. If you have any questions, contact us at NewForestGardenMaintenance@gmail.com or call 07728 801418.
Who is responsible for your information
New Forest Garden Maintenance is responsible for the personal information you send us through this website. You can contact us using the email address and telephone number above.
What we collect
When you request a quote or contact us, we collect the information you choose to give us. This can include your name, email address, phone number, address and postcode, details about your garden and the work you need, and any photographs you upload.
Like most websites, our hosting provider automatically records basic technical information when you visit, such as your IP address, browser type and the pages requested. This is used to keep the website secure and working properly.
How we use it
- To respond to your enquiry and to prepare and discuss a quote.
- To arrange and carry out any work you ask us to do, and to communicate with you about it.
- To protect the website and our enquiry form against spam and misuse.
We use your information because it’s necessary to take steps at your request before entering into a contract, or to carry out a contract with you, and for our legitimate interests in running and protecting our business. We do not sell your information or use it for unrelated marketing.
Who we share it with
Quote requests sent through the website are delivered to our email inbox by FormSubmit (formsubmit.co), a form-to-email service, and then held by our email provider (Google Gmail). Your information is therefore processed by FormSubmit, our email provider and our website hosting provider, who act on our behalf. FormSubmit may process data outside the UK. We don’t share your information with anyone else unless we are required to by law.
If you choose to contact us on WhatsApp, your messages are sent through WhatsApp (provided by Meta) and are handled under WhatsApp’s own privacy policy. The WhatsApp buttons on this website are simple links: nothing is loaded from WhatsApp unless you click one.
How long we keep it
We keep enquiry information only for as long as we need it to deal with your enquiry and any work that follows, and to meet any legal or accounting obligations. Photographs and form submissions are not stored on the website itself: they are sent directly to our inbox.
Your rights
You have the right to ask for a copy of the personal information we hold about you, and to ask us to correct it, delete it or restrict how we use it. You can also object to how we use your information. To make a request, contact us using the details above.
If you’re unhappy with how we have handled your information, you can complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) at ico.org.uk. We’d appreciate the chance to resolve your concern first.
