This policy explains what A Better Construction Company collects when you use this website, why, and what you can do about it. It is written to be read rather than to be survived, and it is short because the site does very little with your data.
The short version
- Using this website — including sending us a quote request — sets no cookies at all and tells no one you were here.
- If you send us a quote request, we keep what you typed so we can reply to it.
- The only outside company involved is Cloudflare, which checks that the quote form is not being filled in by a bot — and Google, but only if you choose to open the map.
- We do not advertise to you, profile you, or sell anything about you.
Cookies
A cookie is a small file a website asks your browser to keep. This site sets one, and only if you answer the question about the map.
Everything else you can do here sets nothing at all. That is not a figure of speech and it is not the usual hedge: you can read every page, open the quote form, work through all four of its steps and send it, and your browser will still be holding no cookie from this website. We checked by doing exactly that.
| Cookie | Set by | What it does | How long |
|---|---|---|---|
klaro |
This website | Stores your answer to the map question below, so you are not asked again on every page. Written only when you answer it. | 180 days |
NID, CONSENT and others |
Set by Google only if you choose to load the service-area map. We do not control these and cannot delete them from here. | Set by Google, typically up to 2 years | |
SSESS… |
This website | Keeps you signed in — but only if you have an account for managing this website. Visitors never receive it. | Until you close your browser |
You can review or change your choice at any time using the Cookie settings link at the bottom of any page.
Other companies this site talks to
Cloudflare Turnstile — spam protection
The last step of the quote form runs a check from Cloudflare that tells a person apart from an automated script. It loads only on that step, so if you never open the quote form, your browser never contacts Cloudflare.
The check reads your IP address and some technical details about your browser. It does not set a cookie on this site and it is not used to track you anywhere else. We cannot switch it off for you: without it the form fills with automated submissions within days, and a form that cannot tell a customer from a bot is a form that stops reaching us. This is the one outside service on the site you are not given a choice about, and that is why.
Google Maps — the service-area map
The map on the service-area section is loaded from Google. It is switched off until you ask for it: where the map would be, you will find a box offering to load it. Nothing is requested from Google before you press that button — not the map, not an image, nothing.
If you do load it, Google will see your IP address and may set its own cookies, under Google's privacy policy rather than this one. The list of counties and towns printed beside the map says the same thing in words, and needs no map at all.
What is deliberately absent
There is no Google Analytics on this site, no advertising pixel, no social media tracker, and no chat widget. The typefaces are served from our own server rather than from Google Fonts, so even the lettering you are reading involves no third party.
The quote form
If you fill in the quote form we receive what you typed: your name, your email address, your phone number if you give one, and your description of the work. We use it to prepare a reply and to talk to you about your project. We do not add you to a mailing list.
Submissions are kept for 24 months and then deleted, unless your enquiry turned into work we did for you — in which case it becomes part of the job record and is kept as long as our business records generally are.
Server logs
Like every web server, ours records requests as they arrive: the IP address, the page requested, the time, and which browser asked. These logs exist to keep the site running and to investigate abuse. They are not used to build a picture of you, and they are kept for 12 months.
Who else sees your information
Nobody, other than the people who run the company and the hosting provider whose servers the site runs on. We do not sell personal information, we do not share it for advertising, and we do not trade it with other contractors. If we ever have to hand something over because the law requires it, that is the only exception.
Your choices
- Ask us what we hold about you, and we will tell you.
- Ask us to correct it if it is wrong.
- Ask us to delete it. If you sent a quote request and changed your mind, say so and it goes.
- Change your mind about the map at any time, using the Cookie settings link in the footer.
- Refuse cookies in your browser settings. Everything here still works, including the quote form — the only thing you lose is our ability to remember your answer about the map.
Write to us using the details below and we will respond within 45 days. There is no form to fill in and no fee.
Children
This site is for people arranging construction work. It is not aimed at children, and we do not knowingly collect anything about them.
Changes to this policy
If what the site does changes, this page changes with it, and the date at the top moves. There is no archive of previous versions — the site is small enough that the current page is the whole story.
