Visitors to our website
When someone visits www.savageandgray.co.uk, we use a third-party service, Google Analytics, to collect standard internet log information and details of visitor behavior patterns. We do this to find out things such as the number of visitors to the various parts of the site. This information is only processed in a way which does not identify anyone. We do not make, and do not allow Google to make, any attempt to find out the identities of those visiting our website.
People who contact us via social media
If you send us a private or direct message via social media the message will be stored on the platform for up to 1 year. It will not be shared with any other organizations.
People who make a general complaint to us
When a complaint has been made we will create a secure file containing the details of the complaint. This would usually contain the identity of the complainant and any other individuals involved in the complaint.
We will only use the necessary personal information to process the complaint through our standard complaint procedure. Our complaint procedure is used to check on the level of service we provide and make decisions to improve where possible. We do compile and publish statistics showing information such as the number of complaints we receive, but not in a form which identifies anyone.
In most cases we will disclose the identity of the complainant to the member of the staff the complaint is about, as there may be a dispute regarding the accuracy of the complaint. If a complainant doesn’t want information identifying him or her to be disclosed, we will try to respect that. However, it may not be possible to handle a complaint on an anonymous basis.
We will keep personal information contained in secure files in line with our data retention policy. This means that information relating to a complaint will be retained for 2 years. It will be retained in a secure environment and access to it will be restricted according to the ‘need to know’ principle.
Similarly, where enquiries are submitted to us we will only use the information supplied to us to deal with the enquiry and any subsequent issues and to check on the level of service we provide.
