Privacy Policy

Welcome to Let's Object. Your privacy is critically important to us. This policy outlines how we collect, use, and handle your data when you use our service, in compliance with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018.

1. Information We Collect

We only collect the information necessary to provide you with the Let's Object service:

• Account Information: When you register, we collect your name, email address, and a secure password.
• Content Data: We collect and store the information you actively provide when creating or participating in objections, including planning references, descriptions, comments, and uploaded documents.
• Usage Data: We collect standard, anonymised connection information such as IP addresses and browser types to ensure the security and performance of the platform.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect strictly to operate the platform and facilitate the core services of Let's Object. This includes:

• Providing, operating, and maintaining our website.
• Managing your account and providing customer support.
• Facilitating communication between neighbours and community members involved in an objection.
• Sending you technical notices, updates, security alerts, and support messages.

3. Data Sharing and Disclosure

We do not sell your personal data.

When you participate in an objection group, your name and the content you contribute (comments, uploaded documents) will be visible to other registered members of that specific objection group.

We may share information with third-party service providers (such as hosting providers) only to the extent necessary to securely operate the platform. We may also disclose information if required to do so by UK law or subpoena.

4. Your Data Protection Rights

Under the UK GDPR, you have rights including:

• Your right of access: You have the right to ask us for copies of your personal information.
• Your right to rectification: You have the right to ask us to rectify personal information you think is inaccurate.
• Your right to erasure: You have the right to ask us to erase your personal information, which you can do by deleting your account.

5. Data Retention & Security

We retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. We implement appropriate technical security measures to protect your data.
