SEDG / PRIVACY

Privacy Policy

Before publication: This is a tailored working draft, not a legal guarantee. Confirm the legal entity, address, actual service providers and operating arrangements; have a UK solicitor/privacy professional review it. These notes should be removed only once verified.

1. Who controls your information

SEDG – Supercar Enthusiasts & Drivers Group operates this website at sedg.co.uk. Email info@sedg.co.uk or call 01934 311221. [Confirm the registered legal name, trading status, registered or principal address, and company number if applicable.]

The organisation legally operating SEDG is responsible for deciding how personal data is used. The full data controller identity and postal contact address must be inserted above before publication.

2. Information we collect

When you contact us or enquire about membership, you may supply your name, email address, telephone number, vehicle make/model, membership interests and message. We also receive communications you choose to send by telephone, email or WhatsApp. Basic technical information may be processed by our website hosting provider to serve pages, maintain security and troubleshoot problems. Do not send payment card details or sensitive personal information using the enquiry form.

3. Why we process it and our legal bases

Responding to enquiries and potential membership: to take steps at your request before entering a contract, where relevant, or our legitimate interests in answering genuine enquiries.
Providing services after agreement: performance of a contract, where applicable.
Website security and fraud prevention: our legitimate interests in maintaining a secure site and service.
Legal or regulatory matters: compliance with a legal obligation where applicable.
Optional analytics or marketing cookies: consent, if introduced and enabled.
Direct electronic marketing: we will only send this where permitted by the relevant marketing and privacy rules, and provide an appropriate opt-out.

4. Who receives your information

Our hosting, email and website-service suppliers may handle data to deliver our services. Our website enquiry form sends information to a handler on our website hosting service, which passes it to our email delivery system for receipt at info@sedg.co.uk. There is no external hosted form submission page. Our hosting and email providers may process this information on our behalf. If you initiate a WhatsApp conversation, Meta/WhatsApp processes that interaction under its own terms and privacy information. Externally hosted fonts and photographs may cause your browser to connect to Google Fonts and Unsplash image servers when loading the page. [Confirm all suppliers, processor agreements and arrangements before launch.]

5. Overseas processing

Some providers may process or access data outside the UK. Before launch SEDG must confirm where personal data is handled and, where required, that appropriate safeguards such as recognised adequacy arrangements or approved contractual measures apply. [Verify email, hosting, Google Fonts, Unsplash and WhatsApp arrangements.]

6. Retention

We retain enquiry information only for as long as reasonably necessary to respond, manage a potential relationship, comply with legal duties or resolve disputes. [Insert an actual retention schedule before publication — for example, a specific period for unsuccessful enquiries and a separate period for members/contract records.] We then delete or anonymise data where appropriate.

7. Security

We use proportionate technical and organisational safeguards and restrict data access according to business need. No online service can promise absolute security. Do not submit sensitive information through the public enquiry form.

8. Your UK data protection rights

Depending on the circumstances, you may have the right to access, correct or erase your information; restrict or object to processing; receive certain information in a portable format; and withdraw consent where consent is the lawful basis. Rights are subject to legal conditions and exceptions. To exercise them, contact info@sedg.co.uk. We may need to verify your identity. You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO).

9. Cookies and similar technologies

Read our Cookie Policy for information about strictly necessary browser storage, optional categories, and how to change your choices. Optional analytics/marketing technologies are not activated by the supplied website code.

10. Third-party websites and children

Links to other websites and manufacturers are provided for convenience and are subject to their own terms. The enquiry form is not designed for children to submit personal information. Please contact us if you believe a child has provided personal data.

11. Changes and contact

We may update this notice if our website or processing changes. The current text is dated 22 October 2026 and must be reviewed before publication. For questions contact info@sedg.co.uk.
