Privacy Notice

Information we collect

When you send a property work request we may collect your name, your email address and/or phone number, your Sussex town or village, your full postcode, the type or types of work you have selected, your description of the job and how soon you need it. The current form does not ask for a budget or a customer or poster type.

If you register for trade work we may collect your name, contact details, the trade or trades you have selected, your experience, your preferred Sussex work area and your right-to-work declaration, plus optional tools, transport and introduction information.

If you tell us about a trade vacancy, the core information is the trade, the work area, the type of worker or experience needed, a short description of the opportunity and your business and contact details. Pay, start date, hours, duration, tools, driving and site safety detail are optional where the form marks them as such.

If you register for trade work we also collect your date of birth. This is used privately to confirm that you are 18 or over and is never published or shown to businesses.

Why we use it

We use submitted information to receive and review requests, contact you about them, identify the relevant Sussex area or trade type, prevent misuse and keep appropriate business records.

Who receives the information

Information may be shared with Cedar & Stone staff, trade businesses we contract to carry out work for us, and service providers who support the running of the business, only where this is reasonably necessary to assess, arrange or carry out the property service you have requested, or to handle a genuine recruitment enquiry. Full postcodes and private contact details are never published on the public website, and a work-seeker date of birth is never published or shared with businesses simply as part of a work profile; it is used privately to confirm the 18 or over requirement.

Website infrastructure

This website is hosted on the Lovable platform. Form submissions are sent to the website server, validated there and written to a private PostgreSQL database provided by Supabase. There is no public read endpoint: submitted information cannot be listed, read or edited by website visitors. Hosting and database providers process technical request data as part of running and securing the service.

Data minimisation

This version does not accept file uploads, so please do not attempt to send identity documents, financial documents or photographs. Do not put unnecessary sensitive personal information into free-text fields.

Retention

Personal information should be kept only for as long as it is reasonably needed to handle the enquiry, maintain necessary business records, resolve disputes or meet legal obligations. Old submissions should be deleted when no longer needed.

Your rights

UK data protection law may give you rights over your personal information, including access, correction and in some circumstances deletion or restriction. Use the contact route on this website to make a request.
