Deskstor is an independent information portal about Office Desks and Storage Solutions. This privacy policy explains what information we receive, how we handle it and the choices available to you.
The short version
We collect information when you contact us or use features that need technical data to work. We use it to respond to enquiries, improve the portal and keep the site secure.
We do not sell goods or services through this portal. We do not use information from this site to build gambling-related profiles or marketing lists.
Information you give us
When you email us, you may choose to include your name, email address, workplace, delivery needs or other details relevant to your question. Please send only what the enquiry requires, and do not include confidential business information unless it is necessary.
Comments, corrections and article suggestions may also include your email address. We use that address to acknowledge the message, clarify a point or tell you what changed.
Information we observe
Like most websites, we may record technical information such as browser type, device type, referring page and pages visited. This helps us understand which parts of the portal are useful and whether basic features are working correctly.
We may also receive information through security systems designed to detect abuse, automated traffic and attempts to disrupt the site. We do not use that activity to build a profile of your personal interests.
Data you provide and data we observe
| Information | Where it comes from | Why it is used |
|---|---|---|
| Enquiry details | Your message | To answer your question |
| Email address | Your message | To reply or confirm a correction |
| Usage data | Your visit | To understand how the portal performs |
| Technical records | Site security | To protect the service |
Processors and international transfers
Hosting, security and email providers may process information on our behalf so the portal can operate. We limit their access to what is needed for the service they provide.
Some providers may process information outside the UK. Where that happens, appropriate safeguards are used for the transfer. We do not disclose personal information for advertising sales or exchange it with unrelated businesses.
Your UK GDPR rights
You may ask whether we hold information about you, request a copy and ask us to correct inaccuracies. You can also object to certain processing, request deletion and ask for your information in a portable format where the relevant conditions apply.
Send your request to [email protected]. We may ask for information that helps us identify the correct person and locate the relevant records. You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk.
How long information is kept
Enquiry correspondence is kept only for as long as it is needed to deal with the request, meet legal obligations and handle any follow-up. Technical security records are retained according to the operating needs of the service and applicable legal duties.
When information is no longer required, we delete it or replace it with a non-identifying record. Retention decisions are reviewed as the portal and its services change.
Children and under-18s
This portal is intended for adults seeking information about office desks and storage solutions. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has sent us information, contact us so we can review and remove it.
Deskstor provides general information about Office Desks and Storage Solutions. We do not sell any goods or services through this information portal.
