Privacy Notice
Last updated: 23 February 2026. This notice explains how Groovy IT collects and uses personal data when you use this website and when you contact us through the website enquiry form.
Groovy IT is the data controller for personal information collected through this website (including website enquiries submitted via the contact form).
You can contact us about privacy questions at contact@groovyit.co.uk.
If you would like a postal contact address for a formal privacy request, please request it by email.
When you submit the contact form, we collect the information you enter, which may include:
We also use a hidden honeypot field to help reduce spam submissions.
Please do not send payment card details or sensitive personal information (such as health data) through the contact form.
We use enquiry information to review and respond to your request, provide quotes or arrange a discovery call, and keep a record of the conversation.
We do not use your contact form enquiry for email marketing unless you separately ask to receive marketing updates and we have an appropriate lawful basis to do so.
This website uses Netlify Forms to capture contact form submissions. When you submit the form, your data is processed by Netlify as part of the website hosting/form handling service.
Form submissions may be stored in the Netlify site dashboard and/or forwarded by email to the mailbox used by Groovy IT so we can respond to your enquiry.
Netlify may also process technical information related to form submission and site security (for example, request metadata and anti-spam/security checks).
The site is hosted on Netlify. Like most web hosts, Netlify may process server/request data (such as IP address, timestamps, and user agent information) for security, performance, and diagnostics.
The site loads Google Fonts (fonts.googleapis.com / fonts.gstatic.com) and Font Awesome from the cdnjs CDN (served by Cloudflare). When your browser loads these assets, those providers may receive your IP address and standard request metadata.
The site stores a small browser local storage value (darkMode) so your light/dark mode
preference is remembered on future visits.
At the time of this notice, the site does not intentionally set analytics or advertising cookies from site-owned code.
We only share personal data where necessary to operate the website and respond to your enquiry, including:
We do not sell your personal data.
Some providers used by this website (for example hosting/CDN/font providers and email service providers) may process data outside the UK. Where this happens, we expect providers to use appropriate safeguards such as contractual protections and transfer mechanisms required by applicable data protection law.
We keep contact form enquiries only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose they were collected.
We may delete or anonymise data earlier where appropriate.
Depending on your circumstances, you may have rights to request access to, correction of, deletion of, restriction of, or objection to the processing of your personal data, and in some cases the right to data portability.
You can exercise your rights by emailing contact@groovyit.co.uk. We may need to verify your identity before completing your request.
If you are unhappy with how we handle your personal data, you can complain to the UK Information Commissioner's Office (ICO): ico.org.uk/make-a-complaint.
We take reasonable technical and organisational steps to protect personal information. However, no website or email transmission is completely secure, so please avoid sending highly sensitive information through the contact form.
We may update this Privacy Notice from time to time to reflect changes to the website, our services, or legal requirements. The latest version will always be published on this page with the updated date shown at the top.
