The Data Protection Act

Under the UK Data Protection Act, we have a legal duty to protect any information that we collect from you. Only the minimum data needed to efficiently process user requirements is asked for and stored, using leading technologies to safeguard your data. Your details will not be passed on to any third party unless you give permission.

Site usage information

When you visit the site, the data that you input will be stored in the form of a session cookie. This allows your choices to be passed from one screen to another, and therefore cookies need to be enabled on your computer to allow full use of the site. Session cookies are deleted when you leave the site, and do not contain personal information.

Finance Partners

In order to allow quote requests to be followed up, we need to record some contact details and pass these on to the finance partner. Compare Contract Hire Ltd will store these details on a secure server in case there is a subsequent query.

The finance partner will only use your details to follow up your enquiry and provide a detailed quote.

In the unlikely event that you suspect that your details have been used for a more general marketing purpose, please let us know asap.
