what I collect
When you use the booking form or contact me: your name, phone number, email, town or village, what you need and anything you choose to tell me.
When you join the launch list or take the What If score: your name, phone number, email, town or village, the visit dates you'd like, the best time to call, and — if you take the score — your answers (for example whether you have a will, children under 18 or a lasting power of attorney, your age range and a rough value of your estate). Your answers produce a red, amber or green result, which I use to decide the order I call people in. I check that order myself before booking anyone, and it only affects when I call you, not whether I will.
When you fill in one of my forms on Facebook or Instagram (a "lead form" in one of my ads): your name, email, phone number, postcode and any other answers on the form, plus which ad you came from. Meta sends these to me automatically, and I store them with my launch list so I can call you back.
When I act for you: the information needed to prepare your will, trust, lasting power of attorney or Executor Pack — which can include details about your family, your health (for health and welfare LPAs) and your finances.
information about other people
Your documents will name other people — children, partners, executors, trustees, guardians, attorneys and beneficiaries. I hold their names and contact details because the documents can't work without them. The legal basis is legitimate interests: making sure your wishes are recorded and can be carried out. Please let the people you name know you've shared their details with me.
why I use it, and the legal basis
- To reply to your enquiry and arrange a visit — steps you've asked for before entering a contract.
- To keep your place on the launch list, work out your What If score and call you in queue order — steps you've asked for before entering a contract.
- To call you back after you fill in one of my Facebook or Instagram lead forms — steps you've asked for before entering a contract.
- To tell Meta which of my ads led to a booked visit, so it shows my ads to people more likely to need them — legitimate interests. For lead-form enquiries I send Meta the reference number it gave the enquiry and a scrambled ("hashed") copy of your email and phone number, never your answers. For website sign-ups this only happens if you said yes to cookies. You can object at any time and I'll stop.
- Occasional emails with tips — only if you tick the box to say yes. Every email lets you unsubscribe.
- To prepare and store your documents — performing our contract.
- To keep records I'm required to keep, such as for tax — legal obligation.
- To keep a record of the advice and documents I gave you, in case of a later question or claim — legitimate interests.
- Health information — only with your explicit consent, and only where a document needs it. You can withdraw that consent at any time; it doesn't affect anything already done.
If you'd rather not give me some information, I may not be able to prepare your documents properly — I'll tell you if that's the case. I don't sell your information, and I don't use it for marketing unless you ask me to. No decisions about you are made by automated means.
who I share it with
Only where needed to do the work: HM Courts and Tribunals Service (will storage), the Office of the Public Guardian (LPA registration), my email and IT providers.The website forms are protected by Cloudflare Turnstile. Launch list sign-ups are stored in a Cloudflare D1 database that only I can access, and emails about your enquiry or place on the list are sent through Zoho Mail. Facebook and Instagram are run by Meta Platforms Ireland Ltd, which receives the information described under "cookies and analytics" and above.
transfers outside the UK
Some of my providers, including Cloudflare, may process information outside the UK. Where they do, it's protected by UK adequacy regulations or the UK's approved data transfer agreements.
how long I keep it
- Enquiries that don't go ahead: 12 months.
- Launch list sign-ups, What If score answers and Facebook or Instagram lead-form enquiries that don't lead to a visit: deleted by 31 March 2028 at the latest. Ask and I'll delete them sooner.
- Client files and copies of your documents: for as long as your documents may be needed — for a will, that usually means for your lifetime — and for 6 years after my work for you ends.
cookies and analytics
This site uses Cloudflare Web Analytics, which doesn't use cookies or track you across sites. The booking form uses Cloudflare Turnstile to stop spam.
No advertising or tracking cookies are set.
your rights
You can ask for a copy of your information, ask me to correct or delete it, ask me to restrict how it's used, object to how it's used, or ask for it in a format you can take elsewhere. Contact me at info@alexstansbury.co.ukor 03330 495033. I'll reply within one month.
