5. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
Our website uses cookies, which are small text files placed on your device. We use two types:
- Strictly Necessary Cookies: These are required for the website to operate, such as those used by the WordPress platform for security and basic functionality. These do not require your consent.
- Analytics/Tracking Cookies: These are non-essential cookies used for gathering Usage Data, specifically:
- Google Analytics: Used to measure and report statistics about user interactions on the website.
- Google Search Console (GSC): We use GSC to monitor and maintain our site’s presence in search results. GSC generally does not collect personal data from website visitors.
Your Consent and Control:
We use a dedicated cookie consent mechanism (banner) on the website. Non-essential cookies, specifically those used by Google Analytics, will not be activated unless you explicitly accept them. You are always able to reject or accept the usage of these non-essential cookies.
6. Data Sharing and International Transfers
- Third-Party Processors: We share Usage Data with Google as a Data Processor for the purposes of Google Analytics and Search Console.
- Other Third Parties: We share your personal data with the local Franchisee (e.g., a “naked cleaner”) who operates in your county. This is necessary to allow the Franchisee to contact you and schedule an appointment. The specific data shared includes: Name, Email Address, County of Residence, and Postal Address.
- International Transfers: The data collected by Google Analytics may be transferred to and stored on servers located outside the UK/EEA (e.g., in the USA). Where this occurs, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place, such as relying on Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) as required by the UK GDPR, to ensure your data is treated securely.

We will only retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which we collected it, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.
