Privacy Policy
Revells Removals is committed to safeguarding the privacy and security of our customers and website visitors. We fully appreciate and respect the importance of data privacy and security on the Internet and this policy explains how we handle and use your personal information, including:
What information we collect when you are using our website, or when you are communicating with us and why we collect that information.
How we may then use that information.
How we share that information.
How long we keep your information, and how we protect it whilst we have it.
What we will not do with your information.
What choice and options you have to control your information.
As a business we adhere to the following data principles:
Your information belongs to you, not us – you should be able to control it, and you should know about, and be comfortable with, everything that we do with your information
We will only collect, keep, use and share your information either (a) for genuine business purposes that we’ve explained clearly to you and that you have not objected to, or (b) where we are legally required to do so.
We will be as clear and open as we can with you on what information we collect, why we collect it and how we use it, so you are informed and able to make decisions to control your information in the ways you’re comfortable with.
As long as we have your information, we will keep it up to date and protect it using appropriate industry standard security safeguards and best practice protocols.
1. How do we collect information about you?
The minimum personal data that we require is your name, your phone number and/or email address, your origin and destination addresses. We may need to collect more personal data if it is necessary depending on the service we are supplying you with. For example, international relocation's may require us to collect a copy or scan of your passport.
In any interaction you may have with Revells Removals, we collect information in following ways:
1.1 Directly Provided Data - When you directly give information to us
This occurs when you talk to us on the phone, use a form on our website, or any time you visit www.revells-removals.co.uk, receive a quote, or communicate with us (including requesting a call back or an online quotation request), you may choose to voluntarily give us certain information – for example, by filling in text boxes, or clicking on active buttons on our site. All this information requires a direct action by you at that time in order for us to receive it.
1.2 User Authorised Data - When you give us permission to obtain information from other accounts
Depending on your settings or the privacy policies for other online services, you may give us permission to obtain information from your account with those other services. For example, social media is an important part of how Revells Removals interacts with customers and in using social media (e.g. by signing onto Revells Removals using your Facebook or Twitter log-in), you may give us permission to access your information in that social media channel or in other services. This would enable us to obtain information and content from those social media accounts. Mobile users of Revells Removals can also choose to provide us with location data.
The information we obtain from those services does depend on your individual settings for that service or their own privacy policies so we do recommend that you regularly check what these are.
1.3 System Collected Data - Information or data collected by our systems when you use our website
Whenever you use a website, app, or other Internet service, there is certain information that gets created and recorded automatically by the IT systems necessary to operate that site or service.
a) Revells Removals uses “cookies” (a small text file sent by your computer each time you visit our website, unique to you or your browser) to provide a better user experience when using our website or apps. We may use cookies to store your language preferences or other settings, so you do not have to set them up every time you visit Revells Removals. A cookie consists of information sent by a web server to a web browser, and stored by the browser. The information is then sent back to the server each time the browser requests a page from the server. This enables the web server to identify and track the web browser.
b) The type of device (for example whether you are using a Mac or a PC, or an iPhone or an Android phone) you are using to access Revells Removals may provide us with information about your device. This may include what type of device it is, what specific device you have, what operating system you’re using, what your device settings are, and why a crash has happened. Your device manufacturer or operating system provider will have more details about what information your device makes available to us.
2. How may we use your information?
We collect information from you in order to be able to provide the highest standard of services to you. If you do not provide us with the personal data we require it may be impossible for us to perform our services to the best of our ability.
The information we collect is used in the following ways:
To ensure that our website's content is presented as effectively as possible for you, and to enable you to participate in interactive features of our site, when you choose to do so - for example by providing you with more customised services and a more customised experience
To set up, and manage your account, so we can provide you with a quote, so we can provide our products and services to you, so we can make sure that the services you require are actioned, so we can communicate with you about our services to you and your account with us, so we can track any potential problems and trends, and customise our customer service responses to better serve you. It’s everything involved in creating our website, so you can browse our services and request tailor-made relocation services unique to you, and so we can answer any questions or queries you may have.
Occasionally personal information may be disclosed to a credit reference or fraud prevention agency in order to confirm your identity and conduct appropriate anti-fraud checks. Any such credit reference or fraud prevention agency may keep a record of that information but please note that a formal credit check is not performed and your credit rating will not be affected.
To update you on all stages of your relocation or storage contract, latest services, news and special offers - if you have contacted us via the website and provided us with your email address and elected to receive marketing communications from us, we will occasionally update you on our latest products, news and special offers via e-mail, post, telephone and mobile text messages, depending on what option(s) you selected. This includes if you choose to use the Facebook “like” button to indicate you like any of our pages or apps. It also includes being called or emailed by your removal team on key dates of your relocation or storage time with us. You can unsubscribe from our mailing list at any time, or contact our office to change any of these preferences.
To send services communications, even if you have unsubscribed from our mailing list, as it will contain important information about your account or our services which we need to make you aware of. You cannot opt out of service messages for this reason.
To target Revells Removals adverts to you when you’re on certain other websites (what’s called Digital Marketing Re-targeting) – we do this using a variety of digital marketing networks and ad exchanges, using advertising technologies such as web beacons, pixels, ad tags, cookies, and mobile identifiers.
