Privacy Policy

Last updated 23 July 2026. This policy explains what personal data Doorstep Local collects, why, and your rights under UK GDPR.

Who we are

Doorstep Local ("we", "us") is a sole-trader business based in Berkshire, UK, providing shared postcard advertising to local businesses. For any privacy query, contact hello@doorsteplocal.co.uk.

What we collect

When you enquire or book a slot we collect the details you provide — business name, your name, email, phone, chosen category and area, and any message. If you become an advertiser we also hold booking, proof and payment records. Card payments are processed by Stripe; we do not store your full card details.

How we use it

We use your data only to respond to your enquiry, confirm and deliver your advertising, send proofs and invoices, and keep records required for tax and accounting. We rely on your consent and on our legitimate interest in running the service.

Sharing

We never sell your data. We share it only with the suppliers needed to deliver your booking — for example our print partner, Royal Mail, and Stripe — and where required by law.

Retention

Enquiry data is kept for up to 24 months. Financial records are kept for six years to meet HMRC requirements. You can ask us to delete data we are not legally required to keep.

Your rights

Under UK GDPR you can request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal data, and object to certain processing. To exercise any right, email hello@doorsteplocal.co.uk. You may also complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ico.org.uk).

Cookies

This site uses only essential local storage to remember a demo enquiry during your visit. It does not use advertising or third-party tracking cookies.
