Who I am

This website is run by Mira Castell Engineering Ltd ("I", "me"), trading as Mira Castell, based in Bristol, United Kingdom. I am the data controller for personal data collected through this website. You can contact me at hello@miracastell.example.

What I collect

• Enquiry and contact forms: your name, email address, company (if given), project details, budget and timeline.
• Emails: whatever you choose to include when you write to me directly.
• Server logs: IP address, browser type and the pages requested, kept briefly for security and to prevent abuse of the forms.

This website does not use analytics, advertising trackers or third-party cookies. Fonts are served from this website, so your browser does not contact Google when you visit.

Why I use it

• To reply to your enquiry and, if we work together, to prepare a proposal and contract (legitimate interests and steps before entering a contract).
• To keep the website secure and stop spam (legitimate interests).
• To meet accounting and tax obligations if we work together (legal obligation).

Who I share it with

Form submissions are delivered to me by email or a secure webhook through service providers that process data on my behalf. I don't sell personal data or share it for marketing.

How long I keep it

Enquiries that don't lead to work are deleted within 12 months. Client records are kept for six years after the end of an engagement to meet UK accounting requirements.

Your rights

Under UK data protection law you can ask to access, correct or delete your data, object to or restrict how it's used, and ask for a copy in a portable format. Email hello@miracastell.example and I'll respond within one month. You can also complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ico.org.uk).

Changes

I'll update this page if the way I handle data changes. The date at the top shows when it was last revised.
