3. Information Collected Through Our Website
Our website is primarily a static informational website.
We do not currently provide user accounts or customer login areas.
Where you contact us through an email address displayed on the website, we receive the information you choose to send to us.
Payments are processed using Stripe. MHT PageWorks does not directly receive or store your full payment-card number or security code.
Our website is hosted using Cloudflare. Cloudflare may process technical information required to deliver and secure the website, such as IP addresses and request information, in accordance with its own privacy practices.
4. Business-To-Business Marketing
We may contact businesses that we reasonably believe may be interested in our website design and development services.
For this purpose, we may use business contact information obtained from:
- publicly available business websites;
- publicly available business listings;
- business directories;
- information provided directly by the business; and
- other lawful business-information sources.
Where this information identifies an individual, such as a sole trader or named business contact, it may constitute personal data.
Where permitted by law, we generally rely on our legitimate interests in promoting and growing our business to process this information.
We consider the nature of the information, the business context, the likely expectations of the person concerned and the potential impact on their privacy.
You have the right to object to the use of your personal information for direct marketing at any time.
If you tell us that you do not want to receive marketing communications from us, we will stop using your information for that purpose.
We may retain limited information on a suppression list so that we can ensure that your marketing preference continues to be respected.
5. Our Lawful Bases
Depending on the circumstances, we process personal information because:
Contract

We may process information where this is necessary for our legitimate business interests and those interests are not overridden by your rights.

- maintaining business records;
- protecting our website and systems; and
- preventing fraud or misuse.

We only share personal information where reasonably necessary for the relevant purpose.
We may also disclose information where required by law or where reasonably necessary to establish, exercise or defend legal rights.
7. International Processing
Some of our service providers may process information in countries outside the United Kingdom.
Where UK data protection law requires safeguards for an international transfer, we rely on the appropriate transfer mechanisms and safeguards made available by the relevant provider.
8. How Long We Keep Information
We do not keep personal information for longer than reasonably necessary.
As a general guide:
- enquiries that do not become projects are periodically reviewed and deleted when no longer required;
- prospect information used for marketing is periodically reviewed for relevance;
- suppression records may be retained for as long as necessary to ensure that marketing objections continue to be respected;
- client contracts, invoices, payment information and key project records may normally be retained for up to six years after the end of the business relationship where appropriate for accounting, legal and dispute-resolution purposes; and
- information may be kept for longer where required by law or where necessary in connection with a legal claim.
9. Security
We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal information.
These measures may include:
- password-protected systems;
- multi-factor authentication;
- restricted account access;
- encrypted communications where supported;
- reputable third-party service providers; and
- limiting access to information to people who reasonably require it.
No internet-based service can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
