We take the privacy of everyone who contacts us or uses this website seriously. We comply with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR), the Data Protection Act 2018, and — where it applies — the EU General Data Protection Regulation.
The basis on which we process information
We process personal information on one of the following lawful bases.
Consent
Information gathered when you browse this website, make an enquiry, or give us explicit permission to contact you. You can withdraw consent at any time by emailing info@ablewebservices.com. Withdrawing consent may limit the services we are able to provide.
Legitimate interest
Where we process information under legitimate interest, we first consider whether the same outcome could be achieved another way, whether processing could cause you harm, and whether you would reasonably expect it. On that basis we process information to:
- Keep accurate records of our dealings with clients and enquirers
- Respond to communications you send us
- Protect our legal position and manage business risk
- Investigate and resolve complaints
Legal obligation
Where we are required to process information to comply with a statutory requirement, including properly authorised requests from law enforcement.
Specific uses of information
Payment information
We never handle your card details directly. Payments are processed by a secure third-party payment provider. We do not store card numbers on our systems.
Messages and enquiries
When you email or call us, we retain your contact details and the content of the message so we can respond, maintain a record of what was discussed and agreed, and monitor the quality of our service.
Complaints
Information relating to a complaint is used to investigate and resolve it. We may compile statistics about complaints, but these never identify individuals.
Affiliate and partner information
Where we work with affiliates or agency partners, details are held in confidence and used only to track and pay commission or manage the partnership.
Information collected automatically
Cookies
This website uses cookies to understand how the site is used, to remember whether you have seen a particular message, to maintain a login session where one exists, and to record responses to any survey or live chat.
You can delete cookies already on your device and set your browser to restrict or refuse them. Doing so may limit parts of this website or others from working correctly.
Browsing information
We record IP address, approximate location, internet service provider, device type and screen resolution. This is assessed in aggregate to understand which pages are useful, not to identify individuals.
Remarketing
Where you have consented, third-party cookies may be used to show you our advertisements on other websites you visit.
Sharing information
- We do not share your personal information with third parties except as described in this notice.
- Third-party advertisers may collect information independently through their own cookies. We do not control those practices and you should review their policies.
- Website hosting takes place in the UK and the USA. Some services we rely on operate outside the European Union.
- Where information is transferred outside the UK or EEA, we require the processor to apply appropriate safeguards and binding corporate rules.
