UK GDPR Compliance
Crafted Furniture Solutions is committed to protecting your personal data in accordance with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR). This page explains how we comply with your rights under UK GDPR, even though we do not maintain a user registration system or store personal data in a database.
Scope and Applicability
This compliance page applies to all visitors of crafted4youshop.co.uk. While we do not collect personal data through forms, accounts, or subscriptions, we may automatically process limited personal data via cookies and web analytics tools (e.g., Google Analytics) to understand site usage and improve user experience. This processing falls under UK GDPR where applicable.

- Right of access – You may request confirmation of whether we process your personal data and obtain a copy of it.
- Right to rectification – You may request correction of any inaccurate or incomplete personal data.
- Right to erasure – You may request deletion of your personal data where there is no compelling reason for its continued processing.
- Right to restrict processing – You may request limitation of how your data is used.
- Right to data portability – You may request your data in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format.

How We Comply
As an informational website with no user accounts or data collection forms, our data processing is minimal and limited to:
- Analytics cookies that collect anonymised browsing behaviour (opt-out available via browser settings or cookie banner).
- Server log files containing IP addresses and user agent data, retained for 30 days for security and technical purposes only.
We do not sell, share, or disclose personal data to third parties for commercial purposes. Any data collected is processed solely for website functionality and improvement.
Data We Process
The personal data we may process includes:
- IP addresses (anonymised where possible)
- Browser type and device information
- Pages visited and time spent on site
- Cookie identifiers (for session and preference management)
No names, email addresses, phone numbers, or payment details are collected or stored.
Legal Basis for Processing
Our processing of personal data is based on legitimate interest under Article 6(1)(f) UK GDPR, specifically:
- Ensuring website security and functionality
- Improving user experience through analytics
- Maintaining accurate server logs for technical troubleshooting
We balance these interests against your privacy rights and ensure minimal data collection.

No Discrimination Policy
