This page explains what personal information Forth Task collects, why we collect it and what we do with it. Forth Task is run by Josh and based in Manchester, UK. If you have any questions, email josh@forthtask.co.uk.
Who is responsible for your information
Forth Task is run by Josh, a sole trader based in Manchester, UK. Josh is the data controller for the information described on this page, which means he decides how it is used and is responsible for keeping it safe. You can contact us about anything to do with your data at josh@forthtask.co.uk.
What we collect
Details you give us when you book an assessment or get in touch, such as your name, email address, phone number, business name and anything you tell us about your business.
Information you share during an assessment or project, such as how your business runs and the tools you use.
Basic website usage data, such as which pages are visited and the type of device used. This is collected without cookies that identify you.
How we use it
To reply to you and arrange your free assessment.
To prepare your assessment report and deliver the work we agree.
To send invoices and keep the records we need by law.
To understand how the website is used so we can improve it.
We never sell your information. We will only send you marketing emails if you have agreed to them, and you can unsubscribe at any time.
Our legal reasons for using it
We use your information because you have asked us to, to take steps towards a contract with you, to carry out that contract, to meet legal duties such as keeping financial records, or where it is in our legitimate interests to run and improve the business.
Who we share it with
We use trusted providers to run the business: Google for email and online booking, Framer for website hosting and visitor statistics, Cloudflare for our domain and email forwarding, and AI and cloud tools, such as Anthropic’s Claude, that we use to plan and build your automations. They only use your information to provide their service to us. Some of them may store data outside the UK, and when they do, appropriate safeguards are in place. We will also share information if the law requires it.
Working inside your systems
When we set up automations, we may need access to information inside your business tools. We only access what the job needs, keep it confidential and do not keep copies once the work is finished unless you ask us to.
How long we keep it
We keep enquiries for up to 2 years. If you become a client, we keep project and financial records for 6 years, as required for tax purposes. After that, we delete them securely.
Cookies
This website does not use advertising or tracking cookies, so you won’t see a cookie banner. We count visits using Framer’s built-in statistics, which work without cookies and do not identify you. When you book an assessment, you move to Google’s booking page, which has its own privacy policy and cookies.
Your rights
You can ask to see the information we hold about you, have it corrected or deleted, limit or object to how we use it, or receive a copy to take elsewhere. Where we rely on your consent, you can withdraw it at any time. Email josh@forthtask.co.uk and we will reply within one month.
Complaints
If you are unhappy with how we have handled your information, please tell us first so we can put it right. You can also complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office at ico.org.uk or on 0303 123 1113.
