We are committed to ensuring that your privacy is protected. If we collect any information by which you can be personally identified when you use this website, you can be assured it will only be used in accordance with this privacy policy.
Beauty By Design LTD is the Data Controller (i.e. the person or organisation who decides the purposes for which and the way in which any personal data is processed) as defined in the EU General Data Protection Regulation 2018. Contact information is given in the ‘Our details’ section below.

Collection and processing of data
(i) Personal data
This website collects and processes personal data including (but not limited to) your name, e-mail address and phone number. The data is collected via forms to respond to an enquiry.
(ii) IP addresses
An IP or Internet Protocol Address is a unique numerical address assigned to a computer as it logs on to the internet. Under the EU General Data Protection Regulation 2018, IP addresses are considered to be personal data. When you visit our website our server keeps a record of your IP address in the logs. This is done to help detect and prevent fraud and unauthorized access and to maintain the security of our systems.
(iii) Non-personal data
This site uses Google Analytics (GA) to track visitor interaction. We use this data to understand the number of people using our site, how they find and how they use our site. Although GA records data such as your geographical location, device, internet browser and operating system, none of this information personally identifies you to us. GA also records your computer’s IP address which could be used to personally identify you but Google do not grant us access to this. We consider Google to be a third party data processor (see the ‘Third parties’ section below). GA makes use of cookies. Disabling cookies in your browser will stop GA from tracking any part of your visit to pages within this website.
Lawful basis for the processing of personal data
When processing your personal data to reply to enquiries and provide marketing communications, the lawful basis we use for processing your personal data, as defined in the EU General Data Protection Regulation 2018, is ‘consent’.
When processing your IP address as describe in (ii) above, the lawful basis we use for processing your personal data, as defined in the EU General Data Protection Regulation 2018, is ‘legitimate interest’.
How we keep your personal data secure
We are committed to ensuring that your information is secure. We use reasonable organisational, technical and administrative measures to protect your personal data.
This includes our website being a secure (https) website so that the data you enter in your browser is encrypted before being sent to our server. The data submitted in forms is automatically e-mailed to us by our server. These e-mails are sent using ‘Opportunistic TLS’ which means an attempt is made to send the e-mail in an encrypted form. However this is not always successful and we cannot guarantee that the e-mail will be encrypted. Unfortunately, no data transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be 100% secure.
Retention of personal data
We will hold your personal data on our systems for as long as we deem necessary for the relevant activity, or as long as is set out in any relevant contract you hold with us.
