Privacy Policy

Last updated: 20 September 2026

This policy explains what personal information ScaleWithLP collects through this website and our Facebook and Instagram lead forms, what we do with it, and your rights. We keep it short and plain on purpose.

Who we are

ScaleWithLP is a sole trader business in the United Kingdom that runs Facebook and Instagram advertising for tradesmen. We are the “controller” of the personal information described here. You can contact us any time at scalewithlp@gmail.com.

What we collect

• When you apply (on this website or through one of our Facebook or Instagram lead forms): your name, phone number, email address (if you give one), business name, trade, what you need help with, best time to call, website address and any message you write.
• When you join our newsletter: your email address.
• When you email or message us: whatever you send us.

We do not use advertising or tracking cookies on this website, and we do not ask for card or payment details on it.

How we use it, and why

• To reply to your application, call or text you about it, and decide whether we can help. Our lawful basis is taking steps at your request before entering into a contract, and our legitimate interest in running our business.
• To provide our services if you become a client, and to keep records. Lawful basis: contract, and legal obligations such as keeping accounts.
• To send you our newsletter, only if you subscribed. Lawful basis: your consent. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link in any email or by writing to us.

We only contact you about your application, or about the newsletter if you signed up to it. We don’t sell your information and we don’t share it with other businesses for their marketing.

Who we share it with

We use a small number of providers to run the business. They handle your information only on our instructions:

• Netlify: hosts this website and receives the forms you submit.
• Twilio: sends us a text alert when a new application arrives.
• Google: email, and the spreadsheet we use to track enquiries and follow-ups.
• Meta (Facebook and Instagram): if you apply through one of our lead forms, Meta collects your details and passes them to us. Meta’s own privacy policy applies to that part.

Some of these providers are based outside the UK, mainly in the United States. Where that happens, your information is protected by an approved safeguard such as the UK data transfer addendum or a UK-approved data bridge.

How long we keep it

If you apply but do not become a client, we keep your details for up to 24 months after our last contact, then delete them. If you become a client, we keep your details while we work together and for as long afterwards as the law requires us to keep business records (normally up to 6 years). Newsletter emails are kept until you unsubscribe.

Your rights

Under UK data protection law you can ask us to: see the information we hold about you; correct it; delete it; restrict or object to how we use it; and send you a copy in a portable format. You can also withdraw consent at any time. Email scalewithlp@gmail.com and we’ll respond within one month.

If you’re unhappy with how we’ve handled your information, you have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) at ico.org.uk or on 0303 123 1113. We’d appreciate the chance to put things right first.

Changes to this policy

If we change how we use your information we’ll update this page and the date at the top.
