Privacy Policy

How we handle your personal data under the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018. Last updated 27 August 2026.

1. Who we are

Heat Sure Group Ltd, company number 17188354 (“HeatSure”, “we”), is the data controller for information you provide when using heat-sure.com. Our registered office is 64C Accounts Office, Roseville Road, Leeds, England, LS8 5DR. You can reach our data protection point of contact at helpme@heat-sure.com.

2. What we collect

Depending on how you use HeatSure, we may hold:

  • Account data — name, email, phone number, role (tenant, landlord, homeowner, engineer, admin), password hash and authentication tokens.
  • Property data — addresses, unit labels, access notes, compliance certificates and photos of your property that you upload for repairs.
  • Membership + billing data — Stripe customer and subscription identifiers, cycle history, invoices. We never see or store full card numbers; Stripe handles PCI-DSS.
  • Ticket & job data — issue descriptions, media (photos/videos/PDFs), engineer notes, quotes, timeline events, live location while an engineer is en-route to your property.
  • Engineer profile data — Gas Safe number, insurance certificate, permanent address (engineers only, for HMRC + admin records).
  • Referral data — the public influencer link followed, pseudonymous visit hashes, attribution status, reward milestones and wallet ledger entries. Influencers receive totals and anonymous references only, never customer identity.
  • Technical data — IP address, user agent, referring URL, session cookies (see Cookie Policy).

3. Why we hold it (lawful bases)

  • Contract — to deliver the maintenance service you or your landlord signed up for.
  • Legal obligation — to keep Gas Safety records, invoices and complaints logs as required by UK law.
  • Legitimate interests — to run fraud checks, secure the account, and improve the service.
  • Consent — for optional analytics cookies and marketing emails, which you can withdraw at any time.

4. Who we share it with

We only share personal data with providers that are essential to running HeatSure:

  • Stripe (payments processor, EU + UK).
  • Amazon Web Services (hosting + storage, London region).
  • Zoho Mail (transactional email delivery).
  • Amazon Cognito (account authentication, where enabled).
  • Your assigned engineer, for the specific property + ticket they're attending.

We do not sell your data or share it with advertisers.

5. How long we keep it

We retain personal data only for as long as needed for the service, legal, accounting and safety purposes. Retention varies by record type. You may contact us for the period that applies to a particular record.

6. Your rights

Under the UK GDPR you can ask us to access, correct, delete, port or restrict processing of your data. Email helpme@heat-sure.com and we'll respond within one month. You can also complain to the ICO at ico.org.uk if you think we've mishandled your data.

7. Updates to this policy

When we change how we handle data materially, we'll email every active member at least 14 days before the change takes effect. The date at the top of this page always shows the last edit.
