Who we are

LocalWebs Ltd provides website design, hosting, maintenance and related digital services. This notice explains how LocalWebs uses personal and business contact information.

Information we collect

We may hold business names, contact names, business email addresses, business telephone numbers, website information, service enquiries, invoices, support requests and records of communications. For prospective business customers, contact details may come from publicly available business directories, company websites, Companies House and other public business sources.

Business-to-business marketing

LocalWebs may contact corporate businesses about website services where we have a legitimate business interest in promoting relevant services and where electronic marketing rules permit that contact. We keep this activity limited and targeted. We do not use this process to automatically cold-email sole traders or ordinary partnerships unless another lawful permission applies.

Our lawful basis

Where personal information is used for permitted business-to-business marketing, LocalWebs relies on legitimate interests. We consider whether the contact is relevant, proportionate and reasonably expected, and we minimise the information used. Where consent is legally required, we do not rely on legitimate interests instead of that consent.

Your right to object

You can object to direct marketing at any time. Reply to a LocalWebs marketing email with “no thanks” or otherwise ask us to stop. We will stop marketing to that contact and keep only the minimum information needed on a suppression list so the business or contact is not added again by mistake.

How long we keep information

Prospect information that does not develop into a business relationship is reviewed and removed when it is no longer needed. Suppression records may be retained for as long as necessary to honour an opt-out. Customer, invoice and service records may be retained for longer where needed for contracts, accounting, support or legal obligations.

Who receives information

We use service providers needed to operate LocalWebs, such as hosting, email delivery and website infrastructure providers. With optional-cookie consent, Google Analytics processes website visit data and pseudonymous identifiers for traffic measurement. We do not sell prospect or customer personal information to advertisers.

Contact

For privacy questions, access requests or objections to marketing, contact LocalWebs using the contact details on our website or reply directly to an email from us.

We use minimal cookies to keep the website working. See our Cookie Policy for details. You can choose whether to allow non-essential cookies.
