Who we are

Simple Renting (simplerenting.co.uk) is run by Benjamin Sweiry, who is the data controller for the personal information described here. For anything about your data, email hello@simplerenting.co.uk.

What we collect and why

If you email us

We use your email address and message to reply to you. We keep emails for up to two years unless you ask us to delete them sooner. Our lawful basis is legitimate interests: answering your enquiry.

If you sign up for checklists or emails

We use your email address, and whether you're a renter or landlord, to send you the checklist and our monthly email. Our lawful basis is your consent, which you can withdraw at any time by clicking "unsubscribe" in any email. [When you choose an email service, name it here, for example: "Our emails are sent using MailerLite, which stores your details on our behalf."]

If you use the register date finder

When you enter a postcode, your browser sends it to postcodes.io, a free public postcode lookup service, to find the region. We don't store the postcodes you enter.

If you ask us to introduce you to a business

We only pass your details to a letting agent or other business if you ask us to, and we'll tell you who before we do.

Cookies

We don't currently use cookies for advertising or tracking. If we add analytics or advertising in future, we'll update this page and ask for your consent first where the law requires it.

Who we share data with

We don't sell your data. We share it only with service providers who help us run the site (such as our website host and email service), and only as needed to provide the service.

Your rights

You have the right to see the personal information we hold about you, to correct it, to ask us to delete it, and to object to how we use it. Email hello@simplerenting.co.uk. If you're unhappy with how we've handled your data, you can complain to the Information Commissioner's Office.
