Privacy Policy

This privacy policy explains how Cycle Haven processes personal data in connection with its bicycle repair workshop services and website use. It applies to inquiries, bookings, bicycle intake, inspections, repairs, collection, and related communications.

Data collected only as described in this policy
Your rights and options are detailed below
Questions handled via our contact channel

Subject to applicable law, individuals may request access to their personal data, correction of inaccurate information, deletion where retention is no longer required, or restriction of certain processing. Where processing is based on consent, that consent may be withdrawn for future processing. Some requests may be limited where we must keep information for legal, accounting, or service-related reasons.

Available rights depend on the nature of the data and the legal basis for keeping it.

To help us process a rights request, we may ask for information needed to verify identity and locate the relevant record. We will respond within a reasonable period and in accordance with applicable legal requirements. If a request cannot be fully granted, we will explain the main reason where permitted.

Requests are reviewed before action is taken to protect confidentiality and prevent unauthorized disclosure.

We keep personal data only for as long as it is needed for the relevant service, accounting, recordkeeping, dispute handling, or legal compliance purpose. Service records are retained for a practical period after completion, and data that is no longer required is deleted or anonymized in line with our internal retention practices and applicable law.

Retention depends on the service record, legal obligations, and the time needed to resolve follow-up matters.

When we update this privacy policy, we will post the revised version on the website and apply the new text from its effective date unless a different notice period is stated. If a change materially affects how personal data is handled, we may provide an additional notice through the website or by direct communication where appropriate.

The policy may be revised to reflect operational, legal, or technical changes, and the current version should be reviewed periodically.

Where a user submits a bicycle for inspection or repair, we may also process information needed to assess compatibility, scope of work, and service history.

We may use essential cookies to support site functions, preference cookies to remember basic settings, and analytics cookies to understand how the website is used.
