Privacy Policy

How we collect, use and protect personal information when you browse this website or send us a property enquiry.

Who we are

This website, Skiing Property CO UK, is operated by the company whose registered details appear in the footer of every page. We are the controller of the personal data described in this policy and we process it in line with the UK General Data Protection Regulation and the Data Protection Act 2018.

Information we collect

When you complete our enquiry form we collect your name, email address, telephone number, any destination, budget or property reference you choose to share, and the content of your message. We also record the date and time of your enquiry and the version of this policy you agreed to.

To protect the form from automated spam, your browser completes a small invisible calculation before submission. This does not involve tracking cookies or third-party profiling. Our servers keep standard technical logs, such as IP address and browser type, for security and troubleshooting.

How we use your information

We use enquiry details to reply to you, to discuss properties that match your brief and, where you ask us to, to introduce you to relevant developers, agents or professional advisers. Our lawful bases are your consent, our legitimate interest in responding to and managing property enquiries, and steps taken at your request before entering into any arrangement.

We do not sell your personal data and we do not use it for unrelated marketing. If we ever wish to send you property updates, we will ask separately and you may withdraw at any time.

Optional website analytics

With your consent, Google Analytics 4 measures visits, pages viewed, device information and referral sources. The Google tag does not load before you accept analytics. Our page-view implementation excludes URL query strings and fragments, and does not send enquiry field values to Google Analytics. Google processes technical connection data when the tag is used and may process data internationally under its applicable terms.

Advertising storage, advertising personalisation and Google Signals are disabled in this implementation. You can reject analytics without losing access to the website or enquiry form. Use Cookie settings in the footer to change your choice or withdraw consent.

Sharing and international transfers

Your enquiry is saved securely in our database. Your browser also sends the enquiry details to Web3Forms to deliver an email notification to our team. This includes your name, email, phone, message and any property, budget or destination details you provide. Web3Forms receives the technical connection information needed to process this request. We do not send our internal anti-spam challenge or security token to Web3Forms.

We share information with hosting and email providers where necessary to process your enquiry, and with property professionals in your chosen destination when you ask to be introduced. International processing may occur; applicable transfer arrangements and safeguards depend on the provider and must be reviewed alongside its current privacy terms.

How long we keep data

Enquiries are kept for up to 24 months after our last contact with you, unless a longer period is needed for legal or regulatory reasons. Technical logs are kept for a shorter period and then deleted.

Your rights

You may ask for access to your data, correction, deletion, restriction, portability or objection to processing, and you may withdraw consent at any time. To exercise these rights, please use the Contact Us page. You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office at ico.org.uk.
