Who we are

Pink Crate is responsible for the personal information collected through this website. You can contact us at Regal House, The Hyde, Brighton BN2 4JE, by phone on 01903 600700, or by email at [email protected].

Enquiries

When you use our enquiry form we collect your name, email address and enquiry, and any company name and telephone number you choose to give. We use them only to reply to your enquiry and deal with any hire that follows. Each enquiry is emailed to [email protected] through our mail server, and a copy is kept on our web server. Our legal basis is legitimate interests: replying to people who contact us.

The form runs automatic spam checks. Messages it blocks are kept in a private review log for 90 days. To limit abuse, it also counts enquiries per connection using a scrambled (hashed) form of your IP address, which is deleted within two hours.

Server logs and security

Like most websites, our web server logs each request: your IP address, the date and time, the page asked for, your browser details and the page you came from. We use these logs to keep the site secure and working, and delete them after 14 days. Our legal basis is legitimate interests: keeping the site secure.

Cloudflare provides security and delivery for this site, so your requests pass through its network. Cloudflare processes your IP address and request details to block attacks and deliver pages quickly.

Google Maps (only if you choose)

Our contact page can show a Google Map. It loads only if you click “Show map” or allow Maps & embeds in Cookie settings. Google then receives your IP address and may set its own cookies under Google’s privacy policy. Our legal basis is your consent.

Other external resources

Apart from the map, everything on this site is loaded from our own server. Nothing is loaded from Google unless you choose to show the map.

How long we keep information

We keep enquiries only as long as we need them to deal with your enquiry and any hire that follows. Server logs are deleted after 14 days, and your cookie choice lasts 6 months.
