1. Who we are
Boshed Ltd ("Boshed", "we", "us") is the controller of personal data collected through this website and the Boshed application. Registered in England and Wales. Contact: privacy@boshed.co.uk.
2. What we collect
When you sign up and use Boshed, we collect:
- Account data: your name, email, company name, password hash, role.
- Customer data you enter: your customers’ names, addresses, phone numbers, emails, job notes, photos. You are the data controller for this; Boshed is the processor.
- Operational data: jobs, schedules, status changes, invoices, payments.
- Technical data: IP address, user agent, session timestamps, error logs.
We do not use behavioural advertising or third-party tracking on the application. The marketing site uses minimal first-party analytics.
3. Why we use it
- To provide the service you signed up for.
- To send service-related emails and notifications (job status, billing, password reset).
- To investigate abuse, fraud, and security incidents.
- To comply with legal obligations (e.g. responding to lawful requests).
4. Lawful basis
We process account and operational data on the basis of contract performance. We process technical data on the basis of legitimate interest in operating a secure service. Where we ever process data for any other purpose, we’ll ask for consent.
5. Who we share data with
We use a small number of third-party processors:
- DigitalOcean: server hosting (UK / EU region).
- Cloudflare: DNS, edge caching, and the marketing site.
- Twilio or similar: sending customer SMS messages.
- Stripe: payment processing for subscriptions.
We never sell your data, and we never share it with advertisers.
6. Where your data lives
All operational data is held on a server in a UK or EU region. Daily off-site backups are encrypted and held for 30 days.
7. How long we keep it
- Active account data: for as long as the account is active.
- Cancelled accounts: deleted within 30 days of cancellation, unless you request immediate deletion.
- Billing records: kept for 6 years to meet HMRC requirements.
- Backups: overwritten within 30 days.
8. Your rights
Under UK GDPR you have the right to:
- Access the personal data we hold about you.
- Correct inaccurate data.
- Have your data deleted (where we don’t need to keep it for legal reasons).
- Export your data as a CSV. This is built into the product.
- Object to processing or restrict it.
- Complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office at ico.org.uk.
9. Cookies
The application uses a single session cookie to keep you signed in. The marketing site uses no third-party cookies. We don’t use ad tracking.
10. Changes to this policy
We’ll email account holders if anything material changes. We won’t change this policy quietly.
