1) Who we are

Controller: 6ten Graphics
Address: 55 Park Crescent, Hastings, TN34 2PP

Email: Info@6ten.co.uk Phone: 07702420847
If you have any questions about this notice or how we use your data, contact us using the details above.

 

2) What this notice covers

This notice explains how we collect, use and share personal data when you use our website or contact us by phone, email or contact form.

 

3) Personal data we collect

• Contact details (name, email, phone) and any information you include in enquiries/quote requests.

• Order, delivery and invoicing information when you become a customer.

• Technical data from your visit (IP address, device/browser details) captured by our website platform to keep the site secure and working.

• Cookies: We only use cookies that are strictly necessary for the site to function (see Section 9).

 

4) Purposes and lawful bases

We only process personal data when we have a lawful basis:

• Providing quotes, responding to enquiries and performing a contract with you (Art. 6(1)(b) UK GDPR).

• Running and securing our website, preventing abuse or fraud, and keeping records of communications (our legitimate interests, Art. 6(1)(f)).

• Accounting and tax compliance (to meet a legal obligation, Art. 6(1)(c)).
  Where we rely on legitimate interests, we’ve balanced those interests against your rights and expectations.

 

5) Who we share data with

We share data only with:

• Service providers acting on our instructions (e.g., website hosting/website platform, IT/email provider, accountants, couriers).

• Professional advisors (accountants/insurers) and authorities where required by law.
  We require all providers to protect your data and only process it for our purposes.

 

6) International transfers

Some providers may process data outside the UK (for example, if using a global website platform such as Wix). Where this happens, we ensure a valid transfer mechanism is in place (e.g., UK adequacy regulations or the UK’s approved safeguards such as the IDTA/UK Addendum to SCCs). We also assess whether protections for individuals remain essentially equivalent before transfers occur. (Information Commissioner's Office, Wix Help Center, wix.com)

 

7) How long we keep your data

We keep data only as long as necessary for the purposes above, then delete or anonymise it. Typical periods are:

• Enquiry/quote emails: up to 12–24 months (to handle follow-ups).

• Customer/order and invoicing records: 6 years (to meet tax and accounting requirements). (GOV.UK)
  If we can’t give a fixed period, we explain the criteria we use (e.g., legal limits, limitation periods, or operational needs). (Information Commissioner's Office)

 

8) Your rights

You have rights over your personal data, including access, rectification, erasure, restriction, objection, data portability, and rights related to automated decision-making (if ever used). To exercise them, contact us using the details in Section 1. You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) if you’re unhappy with how we handle your data (www.ico.org.uk). (Information Commissioner's Office)

 

9) Cookies (strictly necessary only)

We use only strictly necessary cookies so the site can function (for example, for security, load balancing and session management). Under the PECR cookie rules, consent is not required for these essential cookies; however, it is good practice to explain them, which is what this section does. You can block cookies in your browser, but the site may not work properly. We do not set analytics, advertising or social media tracking cookies. (Information Commissioner's Office)

 

10) Children

Our services are not directed to children, and we do not knowingly collect children’s data.

 

11) Changes to this notice

We may update this notice from time to time. Significant changes will be shown on this page with a new “Last updated” date.
