Last updated: 10 November 2026

This policy explains how M.B. Roche & Sons Ltd uses personal information collected through this website. We are the data controller for that information.

Information we collect

• When you use our contact form: your name, email address, phone number and message, plus your company, the type of work and the site location if you choose to give them.
• When you email or phone us: whatever you choose to send or tell us.
• If you accept analytics cookies: information about how you use the site, such as the pages you visit, your approximate location and the type of device you use. This is collected by Google Analytics.
• Technical information: our hosting providers receive your IP address when your browser loads the site, because this is needed to deliver pages and images to you.

How we use it and our legal basis

• To reply to your enquiry, prepare a quote and discuss your project. Our legal basis is our legitimate interest in responding to people who contact us, or taking steps at your request before entering into a contract.
• To send an automatic confirmation that we received your enquiry. Our legal basis is the same legitimate interest.
• To understand how the site is used and improve it. Our legal basis is your consent, which you can withdraw at any time.

We don't use your information for marketing unless you ask us to, and we never sell it.

Cookies

We only set analytics cookies if you click Accept on our cookie banner. These are Google Analytics cookies, named _ga and _ga_*, and they can last for up to two years.

Your choice is saved in your browser for 12 months so we don't need to ask on every visit. This isn't used to track you. You can change your choice at any time using Cookie settings at the bottom of every page.

Our hosting provider, Vercel, also sets a small technical cookie called __vdpl, which makes sure your browser loads one consistent version of the site. It's strictly necessary for the site to work, so it doesn't need your consent. We don't use any other cookies.

Who we share it with

We use these service providers to run the site. They only handle your information on our behalf, or as described in their own privacy notices:

• Headless Digital: builds and manages our website and content system.
• Vercel: website hosting.
• Supabase: stores contact form enquiries and website images.
• Mailgun: sends contact form emails.
• Microsoft: our email, where enquiries arrive.
• Google: Google Analytics, only if you accept cookies.

International transfers

Some of these providers are based in, or process information in, the United States and other countries outside the UK. Where this happens, we rely on the safeguards allowed by UK data protection law, such as the UK-US data bridge or standard contractual clauses.

How long we keep it

We keep contact form enquiries for 24 months after our last contact with you, unless we need them for longer for a project, contract or legal reason. Google Analytics data is kept for 14 months.

Your rights

You have the right to ask for a copy of your information, and to ask us to correct or delete it. You can also object to or ask us to restrict how we use it, ask us to transfer it, and withdraw your consent at any time. To do any of these, email us at the address above.

Complaints

Please contact us first if you have a concern. You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) at ico.org.uk/make-a-complaint or on 0303 123 1113.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The latest version will always be on this page.
