How do we collect information from you?
We obtain information about you when you use our website and if you make an enquiry by telephone or using one of our online forms.
What type of information is collected from you?
The personal information we collect might include your name, email address, telephone number, postal address, IP address and information about what website pages are accessed and when. If you make an enquiry by telephone or using one of our online forms, any personal information you share will be stored within our databases for as long as is necessary to serve you as a customer in the case of home removals. In the case of storage solutions, your information will be removed if you no longer require our storage facilities.
How is your information used?
We may use your information to:
- process your removals or storage enquiry;
- visit your home to discuss our removals service;
- notify you of changes to our services.
We review our retention periods for personal information on a regular basis and will hold your personal information on our systems for as long as is necessary to serve you as a customer.
Who has access to your information?
We will not sell your information to third parties or share your personal data for marketing purposes.
When you are using our online forms, your information will be emailed directly to Kerr’s of Edinburgh and will be used by our staff to deal with your removals or storage enquiry.
Security precautions in place to protect the loss, misuse or alteration of your information
When non-sensitive details (your email address etc.) are transmitted through our booking form, this can never be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of any information you transmit to us, and you do so at your own risk. Once we receive your information, we will ensure its security on our systems.
