Last updated: November 2026. We are committed to protecting your personal data and your right to privacy.
Who We Are
Local Web 360 is a freelance web design and digital marketing service based in Colne, operating across Yorkshire and Lancashire. Our website address is localweb360.co.uk. You can contact us at hello@localweb360.co.uk or by calling 01282 911103.
What Personal Data We Collect
We collect personal data only when you voluntarily provide it to us. This includes:
- Name and email address when you submit a contact or enquiry form
- Email address when you subscribe to our newsletter
- Any additional information you choose to include in a message or form submission
- Technical data such as your IP address, browser type, and pages visited (collected automatically via analytics tools)
How We Use Your Data
We use the information you provide to:
- Respond to your enquiries and provide the services you request
- Send you our monthly web tips newsletter (only if you have opted in)
- Improve our website and services based on usage patterns
- Comply with legal obligations
We do not sell, rent, or share your personal data with third parties for marketing purposes.
Legal Basis for Processing
Under UK GDPR, we process your personal data on the following legal bases:
- Legitimate interests - to respond to enquiries and provide our services
- Consent - for newsletter subscriptions (you may withdraw consent at any time)
- Legal obligation - where required by law
Cookies
Our website uses cookies to improve your browsing experience. These include:
- Essential cookies - required for the website to function correctly
- Analytics cookies - to understand how visitors use our site (e.g. Google Analytics)
You can control cookie settings through your browser. Disabling certain cookies may affect website functionality. For full details, and to change your choices at any time, see our Cookie Policy.
Data Retention
We retain your personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purpose for which it was collected. Contact enquiry data is typically retained for up to 2 years. Newsletter subscriber data is retained until you unsubscribe.
Your Rights
Under UK GDPR, you have the right to:
- Access the personal data we hold about you
- Request correction of inaccurate data
- Request deletion of your data (“right to be forgotten”)
- Object to or restrict processing of your data
- Withdraw consent at any time (where processing is based on consent)
- Lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) at ico.org.uk
To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at hello@localweb360.co.uk.
Third-Party Services
We may use trusted third-party services to operate our website and business, including:
- Google Analytics - for website traffic analysis (only loaded after cookie consent)
- Google Business Profile - for local search visibility
- Accessibility toolbar (Ally by Elementor) - the accessibility button shown on every page is provided by Elementor and loads from their servers, so your IP address is shared with Elementor when a page loads. It is used only to offer options such as larger text and higher contrast, not for tracking or advertising.
- Email service providers - for newsletter delivery
These providers have their own privacy policies and we ensure they meet appropriate data protection standards.
Self-Hosted Fonts & Icons
To protect your privacy and improve performance, we self-host all fonts and icon files on our own server. This means:
- No requests are made to Google Fonts or other external font CDNs when you visit our site
- Your IP address is not shared with Google or any third-party font provider
- Icons are served directly from our domain, not from a third-party CDN
- This approach aligns with our commitment to data minimisation under UK GDPR
Unlike many websites that load fonts and icons from external services (which can expose visitor IP addresses to those providers), our fonts and icons are served directly from localweb360.co.uk.
Security
We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data from unauthorised access, loss, or misuse. However, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
Questions? If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy, please contact us at hello@localweb360.co.uk or call 01282 911103 or 07542 399259.
