Privacy Policy

Who we are

Gizem Bookkeeper ("we", "us", "our") is a bookkeeping service based at 8 Ramsgate Road, Reddish, Stockport, SK5 6TN, United Kingdom. For the purposes of UK data protection law, Gizem Bookkeeper is the data controller for personal information collected through the gizem.co.uk website.

Information we collect

We collect information in the following ways:

• Contact form submissions. When you use the contact form, we collect the information you provide, which may include your name, email address, phone number and the content of your message.
• Direct contact. If you email or call us directly, we will hold the information you share with us in that correspondence.
• Technical information. Our website hosting provider may automatically log standard technical data (such as IP address, browser type and pages visited) for security and performance purposes.

We do not collect financial or bookkeeping records through the website itself — this is only shared and discussed once we have agreed to work together, through separate, appropriate channels.

How we use your information

We use the personal information we collect to:

• Respond to enquiries submitted through the contact form or sent directly to us.
• Communicate with you about the bookkeeping support you have requested.
• Keep a reasonable record of correspondence where necessary for our services.
• Meet our own legal, accounting or administrative obligations.

Our lawful basis for this processing is legitimate interest (responding to enquiries about our services) and, where we go on to provide bookkeeping support, the performance of a contract with you.

Sharing your information

We do not sell, rent or share your personal information with third parties for marketing purposes. We may share limited information with trusted service providers who help us run this website and communicate with clients, such as:

• Our website hosting provider, which stores the website and processes contact form submissions.
• Our email provider, used to receive and respond to enquiries.

This website also embeds a Google Maps view on the Contact page and loads Google Fonts. Loading these third-party resources may share limited technical data (such as your IP address) with Google. See our Cookie Policy for more detail.

We will only disclose personal information where required by law, for example to comply with a legal obligation or protect our legal rights.

Cookies

This website does not use its own tracking, analytics or advertising cookies. Full detail on cookies and similar technologies, including those set by embedded third-party content, is available in our Cookie Policy.

Data retention

We keep personal information submitted through the contact form only for as long as reasonably necessary to respond to your enquiry, and — if you become a client — for as long as needed to provide our services and meet any legal or accounting record-keeping obligations. We periodically review and remove information that is no longer needed.

Data security

Information submitted through the contact form is sent by email and handled with reasonable care to keep it secure. We take appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect personal information against unauthorised access, loss or misuse.

Your rights

Under UK data protection law, you have the right to:

• Ask what personal information we hold about you and request a copy of it.
• Ask us to correct inaccurate or incomplete information.
• Ask us to delete your personal information, where applicable.
• Object to, or ask us to restrict, certain processing of your information.
• Ask for your information to be provided to you in a portable format, where applicable.

To make a request, please contact us using the details below. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the UK's data protection regulator, the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO), if you have concerns about how your information is handled.

Children's privacy

This website and our services are intended for individuals and business owners, and are not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
