Legitimate interests: processing is necessary for our legitimate interests in operating and improving our removal services, ensuring the security of our operations, managing our relationship with you, preventing fraud, and handling queries and complaints, provided these interests are not overridden by your rights and freedoms.
Consent: in specific cases, we may rely on your consent, for example for certain types of direct marketing or optional communications. Where consent is used, you may withdraw it at any time, without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal.

We retain personal data only for as long as is necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by applicable laws and regulations.
Service and contract data is typically retained for the duration of your relationship with us and for a period thereafter to comply with legal obligations, maintain records, and handle any potential disputes.
