Privacy Policy
Last updated: 13 July 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how Iscold Automotive Ltd (“we”, “us”, “our”) collects, uses and looks after your personal data when you use our website or contact us for vehicle air conditioning and refrigeration services.
1. Who we are
Iscold Automotive Ltd is a private limited company registered in England and Wales.
- Company number: 12211944
- Registered office: Linnet Cottage, Carr Road, Ulceby, United Kingdom, DN39 6TX
- Email: info@iscoldautomotive.com
- Telephone: 01469 589 998
For the purposes of UK data protection law, we are the data controller of the personal data described in this policy. More detail on how we protect data is in our Data Protection page.
2. Personal data we collect
Depending on how you contact us, we may collect:
- Name and contact details (phone number, email address, postal address)
- Vehicle or equipment details you provide (make, model, registration, location, fault description)
- Enquiry and job history, including quotes, appointments and invoices
- Payment and billing details where needed to take payment or issue invoices
- Any other information you choose to send us by form, email, phone or in person
We do not deliberately collect special category (sensitive) personal data through this website. Please do not include unnecessary personal information about health or other sensitive matters in enquiry forms.
3. How we collect data
- When you use the website contact form (see section 7)
- When you call, text, email or message us
- When we visit your site to survey, quote, service or repair equipment
- When you become a customer or request a callback
4. Why we use your data (lawful bases)
We use personal data only where UK GDPR allows us to, including:
- Contract / steps to enter a contract — to respond to enquiries, provide quotes, book work and deliver services
- Legitimate interests — to run and improve our business, keep records, prevent fraud/abuse, and follow up service enquiries in a way you would reasonably expect
- Legal obligation — where tax, accounting, health & safety or other laws require us to keep records
- Consent — where we ask for it (for example, optional marketing). You can withdraw consent at any time
5. Who we share data with
We do not sell your personal data. We may share it only where needed with:
- Trusted service providers who help us operate (for example email, hosting, IT or accountancy support), under appropriate agreements
- Professional advisors or insurers where relevant to a claim or dispute
- Police, regulators or other authorities where the law requires or allows disclosure
Where possible, personal data is kept within the United Kingdom / European Economic Area.
6. How long we keep data
We keep personal data only as long as needed for the purpose it was collected, including legal, accounting and reporting requirements. As a guide:
- General enquiries that do not become jobs — usually up to 24 months
- Customer / job records and invoices — typically up to 6 years after the end of the tax year (or longer if required by law or an ongoing dispute)
When data is no longer needed, we delete or anonymise it securely.
7. This website — hosting, form and technical data
Hosting
This website is a static site hosted on Cloudflare Pages (or equivalent Cloudflare / CDN static hosting). Cloudflare may process technical connection data such as IP address, browser type and request logs as part of delivering the site securely and reliably. See Cloudflare’s published privacy information for details of their processing.
Contact form
The enquiry form on this site uses a mailto: link. When you press send, your device opens your own email app with a draft addressed to info@iscoldautomotive.com. The message is sent through your email provider, not uploaded to our web server. Once we receive it in our inbox, we handle it as an ordinary business email under this policy.
If we later add a hosted form service (for example Formspree, Netlify Forms or similar), we will name that provider here and update this policy before it goes live.
Fonts and map
- Fonts are hosted on this website (self-hosted). We do not load fonts from Google Fonts.
- The coverage map loads map tiles from OpenStreetMap / CARTO. Those providers may process technical data such as IP address when the map is shown. Full details are in our Cookie Policy.
Cookies / preference storage
We do not use advertising or analytics cookies that track you across other sites. When you accept our cookie notice we store a small preference in your browser (local storage) so the banner is not shown again. See the Cookie Policy.
8. Your rights
Under UK GDPR you may have the right to:
- Access the personal data we hold about you
- Ask us to correct inaccurate data
- Ask us to erase data in certain circumstances
- Restrict or object to certain processing
- Data portability (where applicable)
- Withdraw consent where we rely on consent
- Complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO)
To exercise your rights, contact us using the details above. We may need to verify your identity before responding. The ICO is the UK supervisory authority: ico.org.uk.
9. Children
Our services are aimed at adults and businesses. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children through this website.
10. Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top will change when we do. Please check this page periodically.
