Privacy & cookies
How we look after your details.
What we collect when you ask for a quote, what we do with it, how long we keep it and what this website stores, in plain English.
Privacy notice
What happens to your details.
When you call, email or send a quote request, we use what you tell us to reply, quote and do the work.
- We use your details and photos to reply, quote and carry out the work.
- We don’t sell them or pass them on for anyone else’s marketing.
- You can ask to see, correct or delete them at any time.
Lancashire Stump Removal is a family-run business run by Richie and based in Preston, Lancashire.
We decide how the details you send us are used, which makes us the “controller” of that information under UK data protection law. For anything in this notice, email info@lancashirestumpremoval.com or call 07534 904202.
When you send a quote request through this website, we receive:
- your name
- your phone number, and your email address if you give it
- your postcode
- the service you need, and details about the stumps such as how many, roughly how big and the access width
- any photos you upload, and anything you tell us in your message
Our website provider also records the date and time each request was sent. If you call, text or email us instead, we keep the details you give us in the same way, along with notes, quotes and records of any work we carry out for you.
Please only upload photos of the job itself, and don’t include sensitive information, such as health details, in your message. We don’t need it to quote.
We use your details to:
- reply to your request and talk the job through
- prepare a quote, visit if needed and arrange the work
- carry out the work, invoice you and keep our business records
We won’t add you to a mailing list, and we don’t pass your details to anyone for their own marketing.
Data protection law asks us to say why we’re allowed to use your information:
- Contract. Quoting at your request, and doing the work once you’ve asked us to.
- Legitimate interests. Replying to enquiries and running our business, including when you get in touch and no work follows.
- Legal obligation. Keeping the records the law requires, such as for tax.
- Consent. For analytics cookies only, if we ever use them, and only if you allow them.
- Requests that don’t lead to work: we delete them, and any photos, once we no longer need them to reply or follow up.
- Customer records such as quotes, invoices and job notes: for as long as tax and accounting rules require, then we delete them.
You can ask us to:
- give you a copy of the information we hold about you
- correct anything that’s wrong
- delete your information
- stop or limit how we use it
- give it to you in a format you can take elsewhere
To do any of these, email info@lancashirestumpremoval.com or call 07534 904202. We’ll reply within one month, and in most cases there’s no charge.
If you’re unhappy with how we’ve handled your information, please tell us first so we can put it right. You can also complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office at ico.org.uk or on 0303 123 1113.
If anything changes, we’ll update this page. The date at the top shows when it was last updated.
Cookie policy
What this website stores.
Only what the site needs to work, plus our map, fonts and Google reviews widget.
- No advertising cookies.
- No analytics.
- Nothing stored to track you.
Cookies are small files a website saves in your browser. Your browser’s local storage works in a similar way, so this policy covers both.
This website only stores what it needs to work. It doesn’t run analytics or advertising cookies.
These keep the site and the quote form working, so they can’t be switched off.

This website doesn’t currently use Google Analytics or any other analytics. If we add it, it will only load if you choose Allow analytics in a cookie banner, and we’ll list its cookies here first. Your choice would be remembered in your browser’s local storage as lsr-consent.
The map at the foot of each page comes from Google Maps. It loads as you scroll near it, and Google receives your IP address and may set its own cookies. The fonts on this website also load from Google Fonts, which receives your IP address but sets no cookies. See the Google privacy policy.
The Google reviews on our home page are shown by Elfsight. The widget loads as you scroll near it, and Elfsight receives your IP address and may store a small amount of data in your browser to display the reviews. See the Elfsight privacy policy.
You can block or delete cookies in your browser’s settings. If you block local storage, the quote form may not work. You can still call us on 07534 904202 or email info@lancashirestumpremoval.com.
