COMPLAINTS

If you are unhappy with a quote or advice you have received from us, you can complain. We take complaints very seriously and have a complaint procedure in place whereby we will respond to you within set deadlines. to make a complaint please follow the following three steps

STEP 1. CONTACT US DIRECTLY

It is usually best to write or email us so that you have a record of what you say.
Contacting us is a simple process you can do yourself without using a claims handler. You can also get free help from the Ombudsman Services or organisations like Citizens Advice if you need it.

Initially, we will respond just to let you know we have received your complaint. We will then respond to your complaint within two weeks, telling you whether the complaint has been successful or why we need more time to look into it.

STEP 2. CONTACT THE FINANCIAL OMBUDSMAN SERVICE

If you are not happy with our response, we reject your complaint or you do not hear from it within eight weeks, the Ombudsman Service may be able to help.

The ombudsman service is a free, independent service for settling disputes between services companies and their customers. It can deal with complaints about a wide range of matters – from full fit outs to minor alterations.

The ombudsman service will ask us to explain what we think happened and then decide whether to uphold your complaint.

It is important you contact the ombudsman service within six months of receiving a final response from us or the ombudsman service may not be able to deal with your complaint.

Their contact details are as follows:

The Ombudsman Service

Ombudsman Services
3300 Daresbury Park Daresbury Warrington WA4 4HS

STEP 3. TAKE THE MATTER TO COURT

If you do not want to accept a decision by the Ombudsman Service and you have not used an independent complaints scheme, as a last resort you may be able to take your case to court.

You would usually start a civil legal action in the county courts or High Court (in England, Wales and N. Ireland), depending on the circumstances of the case. In Scotland, most small claims are started in the Sheriff Courts.

This includes, for instance, collecting it (from you), obtaining it (from other organisations), using, sharing, retaining, deleting and destroying it, and transferring it overseas.

What are the legal grounds for our processing of your personal information ( including when we share it with others )?

Data protection laws require us to explain what legal grounds justify our processing of your personal information (this includes sharing it with other organisations). For some processing more than one legal ground may be relevant (except where we rely on a ‘consent’). Here are the legal grounds that are relevant to us:

1) Processing necessary to perform our contract with you or for taking steps prior to entering into it:

2) Where we consider that, on balance, it is appropriate for us do so, processing necessary for the following legitimate interests which apply to us and in some cases other organisations (which we list below) are:

a)  To adhere to guidance and best practice under the regimes of governmental and regulatory bodies such as HMRC,

c)  For management and audit of our business operations including accounting;

d)  To carry out monitoring and to keep records (see below);

e)  To administer our good governance requirements, such as internal reporting and compliance obligations or administration;

f)   Governmental and regulatory bodies such as HMRC,

  • Other organisations and businesses which provide services to us such as back up and server hosting providers, IT software and maintenance providers, document storage providers and suppliers of other back office functions; and
  • Buyers and their professional representatives as part of any restructuring, merger or sale of our business or assets; and

3) Processing necessary to comply with our legal obligations:a) For compliance with laws that apply to us;b) For establishment, defence and enforcement of our legal rights;c) For activities relating to the prevention, detection and investigation of crime;

d) To carry out identity checks and anti-money laundering checks;

e) To carry out monitoring and to keep records (see below);

f) To deal with requests from you to exercise your rights under data protection laws;

g) To process information about a crime or offence and proceedings related to that (in practice this will be relevant if we know or suspect fraud);

h) Law enforcement agencies and governmental and regulatory bodies such as HMRC,

  • Courts and other organisations where that is necessary for the administration of justice, to protect vital interests and to protect the security or integrity of our business operations.

4) Processing with your consent:

a) When you request that we share your personal information with someone else and consent to that;

5) Processing for a substantial public interest under laws that apply to us where this helps us to meet our broader social obligations such as:

a) Processing that we need to do to fulfil our legal obligations and regulatory requirements.

b) When we share your personal information with other people and organisations, for example if they need to know that you are a vulnerable customer.

How and when can you withdraw your consent?

Much of what we do with your personal information is based on your consent.

Is your personal information transferred outside the UK or the EEA?

We are based in the UK and your information never leaves the UK.

Safeguards include contractual obligations imposed on the recipients of your personal information. Those obligations require the recipient to protect your personal information to the standard required in the UK Area. Safeguards also include requiring the recipient to subscribe to ‘international frameworks’ intended to enable secure data sharing and where the framework is the means of protection for the personal information.

Do you have to provide your personal information to us?

We do not need any personal information other than your work telephone numbers /email address and project name and address.

Do we do any monitoring involving processing of your personal information?

In this section monitoring means any listening to, recording of, viewing of, intercepting of, or taking and keeping records (as the case may be) of calls, email, social media messages, in person face to face meetings and other communications.

We may monitor where permitted by law and we will do this where the law requires it. In particular, where we are required by the regulatory regime to record certain telephone lines or in person meetings (as relevant) we will do so.

Some of our monitoring may be to comply with regulatory rules, self-regulatory practices or procedures relevant to our business, to prevent or detect crime, in the interests of protecting the security of our communications systems and procedures, to have a record of what we have discussed with you and actions agreed with you, to protect you and to provide security for you and for quality control and staff training purposes.

Some of our monitoring may check for obscene or profane content in communications.

We may take and retain notes of telephone calls and/or in person meetings between us and you in connection with your enquiry to make sure that we have a record of what has been discussed and what your instructions are.

For how long is your personal information retained by us?

Unless we explain otherwise to you, we will hold your personal information for the following periods:

Retention in case of queries. We will retain the personal information that we need to keep in case of queries from you (for instance, we have a 6 month default inspection on all our contracted works) for 12 months unless we have to keep it for a longer period (see directly below);

Retention in case of claims. We will retain the personal information that we need to keep for the period in which you might legally bring claims against us which in practice means 1 years unless we have to keep it for a longer period (see directly below); and

Retention in accordance with legal and regulatory requirements. We will retain the personal information that we need to keep even after the relevant contract you have with us has come to an end for 1 years and this will be to satisfy our legal and regulatory requirements.

If you would like further information about our data retention practices, please contact us.

What are your rights under Data Protection law (*effective from 25 May 2018)?

Here is a list of the rights that all individuals have under data protection laws. They do not apply in all circumstances. If you wish to exercise any of them we will explain at that time if they are engaged or not. The right of data portability is only relevant from 25 May 2018.

  • The right to be informed* – we have to be transparent with you about the processing that we do with your personal information. This is why we have a Privacy Notice. The information that you supply is determined by whether or not we collected your personal information directly from you or indirectly via someone else. Your right to be informed may be relevant if you consider it necessary to ask for more information about what we do with your personal information.
  • The right to have your personal information corrected if it is inaccurate and to have incomplete personal information completed in certain circumstances. If we have disclosed the personal information in question to other organisations, we must inform them of the rectification where possible. Your rights in relation to rectification may be relevant if you consider that we are processing inaccurate or incomplete information about you.· The right to object to processing of your personal information where it is based on legitimate interests, where it is processed for direct marketing (including profiling relevant to direct marketing) or where it is processed for the purposes of statistics. Your rights to object may be relevant if you wish to find out more about what legitimate interests we rely on (they are listed in our Privacy Notice) or about what profiling we do in relation to our direct marketing communications and activities (as mentioned in our Privacy Notice) for instance.
  • The right to restrict processing* of your personal information, for instance where you contest it as being inaccurate (until the accuracy is verified); where you have objected to the processing (where it was necessary for legitimate interests) and we are considering whether our organisation’s legitimate interests override your own; where you consider that the processing is unlawful (and where this is the case) and where you oppose erasure and request restriction instead; or where we no longer need the personal information for the purposes of the processing for which we were holding it but where you require us to continue to hold it for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.· The right to have your personal information erased* (also known as the “right to be forgotten”). This enables an individual to request the deletion or removal of personal information where there is no compelling reason for its continued processing. This right is not absolute – it applies only in particular circumstances and where it does not apply any request for erasure will be rejected. It may be relevant where the personal information is no longer necessary in relation to the purpose for which it was originally collected/processed; if the processing is based on consent which you then withdraw; when you object to the processing and there is no overriding legitimate interest for continuing it; if the personal information is unlawfully processed; or if the personal information has to be erased to comply with a legal obligation. Requests for erasure may be refused in some circumstances such as where the personal information has to be retained to comply with a legal obligation or to exercise or defend legal claims
  • The right to request access to the personal information held about you, to obtain confirmation that it is being processed and to obtain certain prescribed information about how we process it. This may assist if you wish to find out what personal information we do have about you in order to then determine if you can exercise other rights (those mentioned above and below).
  • The right to data portability*. This allows individuals to obtain and reuse their personal information for their own purposes across different services; to move, copy or transfer their personal information easily from one environment to another in a safe and secure way without hindrance to usability. This right can only be relevant where personal information is being processed based on a consent or for performance of a contract and is carried out by automated means. This right is different from the right of access (see above) and that the types of information you can obtain under the two separate rights may be different. You are not able to obtain through the data portability right all of the personal information that you can obtain through the right of access.
  • Rights in relation to automated decision making which has a legal effect or otherwise significantly affects you*. This right allows individuals in certain circumstances to access certain safeguards against the risk that a potentially damaging decision is taken solely without human intervention. This right is different from the more general right to object to profiling (see above) because that other right is not tied to a scenario where there is a legal effect on you or where the processing otherwise significant affects you. Data protection laws prohibit this particular type of automated decision making except where it is necessary for entering into or performing a contract; is authorised by law; or where you have explicitly consented to it. In those cases, you have the right to obtain human intervention and an explanation of the decision and you may be able to challenge that decision.

You have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office which enforces data protection laws: https://ico.org.uk.
