Privacy Policy

Last updated: August 19, 2026 | Cookie consent version: TGPC-Consent-v1

What changed in this update: we have added section 6a, explaining how we use artificial intelligence to transcribe and summarise calls and meetings, to prepare internal briefings, and to prioritise who our team contacts. We have also named the third parties who process data on our behalf (section 8a), set out how long we keep each category of data (section 7), and updated our international transfer safeguards.

Summary: The Good Property Company is committed to respecting your privacy and protecting your personal information

  • We will be transparent about the information we are collecting and what we will do with it.
  • We will use the information you give us for the purposes described in our Privacy Policy, which include providing you with services you have requested and enhancing your experience with The Good Property Company.
  • We will also use the information to help us understand you better and so that we can give you relevant offers.
  • If you tell us you don't want to receive marketing messages we will stop sending them. We will, of course, continue to send essential information relating to a product or service you have purchased to keep you informed about your products and what we have to offer
  • We use artificial intelligence to transcribe and summarise calls and meetings, to prepare internal briefings for our team, and to help decide who we contact and when. A person always reviews what the AI produces, and no decision about you is made by a machine alone. Section 6a explains this in full, including how to object.
  • We will put in place measures to protect your information and keep it secure.
  • We will respect your data protection rights and aim to give you control over your own information.

You can access our full Privacy Policy below to help you to understand better how we use your personal information. In it, we explain in more detail the types of personal information we collect, how we collect it, what we may use it for and who we may share it with.

Within the Privacy Policy you will find some specific examples of why and how we use your personal information. If you have further questions please get in touch with us by writing to Data Protection Officer, info@thegoodpropertycompany.co.uk or by mail to 184 Henleaze Rd, Henleaze, Bristol BS9 4NE, United Kingdom.

Without prejudice to your rights under applicable laws, the above and the Privacy Policy are not contractual and do not form part of your contract with us.

3. What Does This Policy Cover?

This Privacy Policy applies only to your use of Our Site. Our Site may contain links to other websites. Please note that We have no control over how your data is collected, stored, or used by other websites and We advise you to check the privacy policies of any such websites before providing any data to them.

For the purposes of this Policy, Our Site means www.thegoodpropertycompany.co.uk and our online shop at shop.thegoodpropertycompany.co.uk. The shop is operated for Us on the GoHighLevel platform. Cookies behave differently on the shop, and section 13 explains how.

4. Your Rights

As a data subject, you have the following rights under the GDPR, which this Policy and Our use of personal data have been designed to uphold:

  • The right to be informed about Our collection and use of personal data.
  • The right of access to the personal data We hold about you.
  • The right to rectification if any personal data We hold about you is inaccurate or incomplete (please contact Us).
  • The right to be forgotten - i.e. the right to ask Us to delete any personal data We hold about you (We only hold your personal data for a limited time, but if you would like Us to delete it sooner, please contact Us).
  • The right to restrict (i.e. prevent) the processing of your personal data.
  • The right to data portability (obtaining a copy of your personal data to re-use with another service or organisation).
  • The right to object to Us using your personal data for particular purposes.
  • Rights with respect to automated decision making and profiling. We use automated scoring to help prioritise which people our team contacts, and artificial intelligence to summarise calls and meetings and to draft internal briefings and suggested replies. These are decisionsupport tools: the output is reviewed by a member of our team before it is acted on, so we do not make decisions producing legal or similarly significant effects about you by automated means alone. You may still object to this processing, ask for a human review of anything that affected you, and ask us to correct an inaccurate summary or score. Section 6a sets out how.

If you have any cause for complaint about Our use of your personal data, please contact Us and We will do Our best to solve the problem for you. If We are unable to help, you also have the right to lodge a complaint with the UK's supervisory authority, the Information Commissioner's Office.

For further information about your rights, please contact the Information Commissioner's Office or your local Citizens Advice Bureau.

If you choose to correspond with Us through email, We may retain the content of your email messages together with your email address and Our responses. We provide the same protections for these electronic communications that We employ in the maintenance of information received by mail and telephone.

We collect information to provide and improve our Service to you. We sometimes collect Personal Data including:

  • "Registration Information": When you register to use our Service, you will be asked to complete a registration form. This form requires providing information such as name, address, phone/fax number, email address and other Personal Data. This form also requires providing information about your business.

This may include information such as your computer's Internet Protocol address (i.e. IP address), browser type, browser version, the pages of our Site that you visit, the time and date of your visit, the time spent on those pages, unique device identifiers, and the like. Usage Data may also include data about your purchasing patterns, your contact details, and your profile information. When you access the Service by or through a mobile device, this Usage Data may include information such as the type of mobile device you use, your mobile device unique ID, the IP address of your mobile device, your mobile operating system, the type of mobile Internet browser you use, unique device identifiers and other diagnostic data.
  • "Payment Information": We may collect billing information, credit card numbers and expiration dates, tracking information from checks or money orders, or other payment information particularly if you establish a credit account with us or our providers or if you purchase a product or service from us, other Users of the Service, or other vendors available through the Site.

  • "Statistical Information": In addition, we gather statistical information about our Site and Users, such as IP addresses, browser software, operating system, software and hardware attributes, pages viewed, number of sessions, unique visitors and so forth.
  • "Marketing Information": From time to time, we gather information about our Users and prospective users during trade shows, events and other functions for follow up marketing purposes.
  • "Disclosed Personal Information": From time to time, our Users may disclose Personal Data deliberately or inadvertently including without limitation to personal identifiers such as name, email addresses, telephone number, facsimile number and IP address of individuals in the course of using the Site.

5.2 Information Collected by Clients

A User may store or upload data into the Service. The Good Property Company has no direct relationship with the non Client Users whose Personal Data it may host as part of Client Data. Each Client is responsible for providing notice to Users who are its customers and third persons concerning the purpose for which the Client collects their Personal Data and how this Personal Data is processed in or through the Service as part of Client Data.

5.3 Information Collected by Cookies

We use "cookies" to store specific information about you and track your visits to our Site. It is not uncommon for websites to use cookies to enhance identification of their users. A "cookie" is a small amount of data that is sent to your browser and stored on your computer's hard drive. A cookie can be sent to your computer's hard drive only if you access our Site using the computer. If you do not de-activate or erase the cookie, each time you use the same computer to access our Site, our web servers will be notified of your visit to our Site and in turn we may have knowledge of your visit and the pattern of your usage. We use automatically collected information and other information collected on the Service through cookies and similar technologies to: (i) personalize our Service, such as remembering a User's or Visitor's information so that the User or Visitor will not have to re-enter it during a visit or on subsequent visits; (ii) provide customized advertisements, content, and information; (iii) monitor and analyse the effectiveness of Service and third-party marketing activities; (iv) monitor aggregate site usage metrics such as total number of visitors and pages viewed; and (v) track your entries, submissions, and status in any promotions or other activities on the Service. You can learn more about cookies by visiting http://www.allaboutcookies.org.

You can determine if and how a cookie will be accepted by configuring your browser, which is installed in the computer you are using to access the Site. If you desire, you can change those configurations in your browser to accept all cookies, to be notified when a cookie is sent, or to reject all cookies. If you reject all cookies you may be required to re-enter your information on our Site more often and certain features of our Site may be unavailable.

Examples of Cookies we may use:

  • Session Cookies. We may use Session Cookies to operate our Service.
  • Preference Cookies. We may use Preference Cookies to remember your preferences and various settings.
  • Security Cookies. We may use Security Cookies for security purposes.

5.4 Call and Meeting Recordings, Transcripts and Notes

If you speak to us by telephone, or join a video call, webinar or online meeting with us, we may record the call and produce a written transcript and a summary of it.

On video calls, webinars and online meetings, you are notified automatically that recording and transcription are taking place: an on-screen notification is displayed at the start of the meeting and a message is posted into the meeting chat. This does not depend on a member of our team remembering to tell you.

On telephone calls, you are told at the start of the call that it is being recorded.

You may ask us not to record, or ask us to stop recording and delete what has been recorded, at any point during or after the call.

This category of data can include your voice, your image if you use video, anything you choose to tell us during the conversation, and the notes, summaries and follow-up actions we generate from it. Because a conversation is open-ended, it may contain information you would not have given us on a form, including details about your finances or your personal circumstances. Please do not share information during a call that you do not want us to hold. If you do share something you would rather we did not keep, tell us and we will remove it.

Recordings, transcripts and summaries are produced and analysed using the artificial intelligence services described in section 6a, and are retained for the periods set out in section 7.

5.5 Collected Information

By "Collected Information" we mean information collected by cookies, information collected by Clients that is provided to us or collected by us as Client Data, Registration Information, Publishing Information, Usage Data, Payment Information, Account Activities Information, Statistical Information, Marketing Information, Disclosed Personal Information, call and meeting recordings, transcripts and the summaries and scores derived from them, and any information we may collect from you, from our affiliates, or from other parties or through any other means.

6. How Do We Use Your Data?

All personal data is processed and stored securely, for no longer than is necessary in light of the reason(s) for which it was first collected. We will comply with Our obligations and safeguard your rights under the GDPR at all times.

If you are a Client or User who has registered with the Service, your Registration Information, Publishing Information and Payment Information (if any) can be viewed and edited through your Account, which is protected by a Password. We recommend that you do not divulge your Password to anyone. Our personnel will never ask you for your Password in an unsolicited phone call or in an unsolicited e-mail. If you share a computer with others, you should not choose to save your login information (e.g., User ID and Password) on the computer. Remember to sign out of your Account and close your browser window when you have finished your session. If you are a User or Visitor, please note that no method of transmission over the Internet, wireless transmission, or method of electronic storage is perfectly secure. The security of your data is important to us, and we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your Personal Data. However, we cannot guarantee its security.

Our use of your personal data will always have a lawful basis, either because it is necessary for Our performance of a contract with you, because you have consented to Our use of your personal data (e.g. by subscribing to emails), or because it is in Our legitimate interests. Specifically, We may use your data for the following purposes:

  • Providing and managing your Account;
  • Providing and managing your access to Our Site;
  • Personalising and tailoring your experience on Our Site;
  • Supplying Our products and services to you (please note that We require your personal data in order to enter into a contract with you);
  • Personalising and tailoring Our products and services for you;
  • Replying to emails from you;
  • Supplying you with emails that you have opted into (you may unsubscribe or opt-out at any time by contacting info@thegoodpropertycompany.co.uk or opting out with the unsubscribe button on each email.
  • Market research;
  • Analysing your use of Our Site and gathering feedback to enable Us to continually improve Our Site and your user experience.

With your permission and/or where permitted by law, We may also use your data for marketing purposes which may include contacting you by email, telephone, text message, or post with information, news and offers on Our products and services. We will not, however, send you any unsolicited marketing or spam and will take all reasonable steps to ensure that We fully protect your rights and comply with Our obligations under the GDPR and the Privacy and Electronic Communications (EC Directive) Regulations 2003.

Third parties whose content appears on Our Site may use third party Cookies. Please note that We do not control the activities of such third parties, nor the data they collect and use, and advise you to check the privacy policies of any such third parties.

You have the right to withdraw your consent to Us using your personal data at any time, and to request that We delete it.

We do not keep your personal data for any longer than is necessary in light of the reason(s) for which it was first collected. Data will therefore be retained for the following periods (or its retention will be determined on the following bases):

By law we have to keep basic information about our customers (including contact, identity, financial and transaction Data) for seven years after they cease being customers for tax purposes; and

In some circumstances, we may anonymise your personal data (so that it can no longer be associated with you) for research or statistical purposes in which case we may use this information indefinitely without further notice to you.

We may use the information that We collect to notify you about important changes to Our Site, new products and services, and special offers that We think you will find valuable. You may notify Us at any time if you do not wish to receive these offers by contacting info@thegoodpropertycompany.co.uk.

6a. Our Use of Artificial Intelligence

We use artificial intelligence ("AI") tools provided by third parties to help us run our business. This section explains what we use them for, what data they receive, and what we do and do not allow those providers to do with it. It supplements, and does not replace, the rest of this Policy.

6a.1 What we use AI for

  • Transcribing calls and meetings. Recordings of telephone calls, discovery calls, webinars and online meetings are converted into written transcripts by an automated speech-to-text service.
  • Summarising conversations. Transcripts are summarised into a short written note of what was discussed, what you asked for, what was agreed and what should happen next. That note is saved to your record in our customer relationship management system so the next person you speak to has the context.
  • Preparing internal briefings. Before a member of our team calls you, we may generate a briefing that draws together your previous conversations, the products you have shown interest in, and your history with us, so that you do not have to repeat yourself.
  • Drafting suggested replies. We may use AI to draft a suggested response to an enquiry. Nothing drafted this way is sent to you until a member of our team has read it, edited it if needed, and chosen to send it.
  • Prioritising who we contact. We score contact records to estimate how likely someone is to want to hear from us now, and use that to order our team's call lists. This is profiling. Its practical effect is on the order and timing of contact from us, not on the price you are offered, whether you may buy from us, or the terms of any contract.
  • Quality assurance and staff training. We review and score our own team's calls against an internal standard to monitor the quality of the service we give and to coach our staff. The subject of this assessment is our employee's performance, not you, but the transcript being assessed necessarily contains your side of the conversation.

6a.2 A person is always in the loop

We do not use AI to make decisions about you on its own. AI output is used as a working draft or a prompt for a human being, and a member of our team decides what to do. We do not use AI to decide whether to sell to you, what price to offer you, whether to accept or refuse you as a customer, or anything else that would have a legal effect on you or similarly significantly affect you.

AI-generated summaries can be wrong. They can misattribute a statement, misunderstand a figure, or record something you did not say. If you believe a note or summary we hold about you is inaccurate, you have the right to have it corrected, and we will review the underlying recording where we still hold it. Contact us using the details in section 16.

6a.3 Who processes this data

The AI providers we use act as our processors. They handle your data only on our documented instructions, under a written contract that meets the requirements of Article 28 of the UK GDPR. The providers currently used for AI processing are:

ProviderWhat we use it forData it receives
Anthropic PBC (Claude)Summarising conversations, drafting briefings and suggested replies, internal call quality scoringCall and meeting transcripts, and summaries of your record with us
Deepgram, Inc.Speech-to-text transcriptionCall recording audio
Fathom Video, Inc.Recording, transcribing and summarising online meetingsMeeting audio and video, transcripts, participant names and email addresses

These providers are based in the United States, so using them involves an international transfer of your data. Section 7 explains the safeguards that apply.

6a.4 What we do not allow

  • We do not permit our AI providers to use your data to train their AI models. This is a term of our contracts with them.
  • We do not sell your data, and we do not share it with an AI provider for that provider's own purposes.
  • We do not use consumer AI chat products for your data. AI processing runs through business accounts governed by data processing terms.
  • We do not use AI to infer special category data about you, such as your health, religion, political opinions or sexual orientation, and we ask our team not to record such information.

6a.5 Our lawful basis

We rely on our legitimate interests (Article 6(1)(f) UK GDPR) for the AI processing described above. Our legitimate interests are in understanding what our customers and enquirers need, keeping accurate records of what was discussed, training our staff, maintaining the quality and honesty of our sales conversations, and operating efficiently. We have assessed this processing against your rights and freedoms, and we keep that assessment under review; you may request a summary of it.

Where AI is used to prepare or personalise marketing to you, we rely on your consent where consent is required.

6a.6 Your choices

Because we rely on legitimate interests, you have the right to object to this processing at any time, and we will stop unless we can show compelling legitimate grounds that override your interests. Specifically, you may:

  • ask us not to record a call or meeting, before or during it;
  • ask us to delete a recording, transcript or AI-generated summary;
  • ask us to exclude your record from automated scoring and prioritisation;
  • ask for a human review of anything an AI tool produced that affected how we dealt with you; and
  • ask us to correct an inaccurate summary, note or score.

Refusing to have a call recorded will not stop us providing you with our products or services. To exercise any of these choices, contact us using the details in section 16.

7. How and Where Do We Store Your Data?

We only keep your personal data for as long as We need to in order to use it as described above in section 6, and/or for as long as We have your permission to keep it.

Several of the services we rely on, including our customer relationship management system, our website hosting and the AI services described in section 6a, are provided by companies based in the United States. Your data is therefore transferred outside the United Kingdom and the European Economic Area. Where we make such a transfer, we ensure a level of protection equivalent to that required by the UK GDPR by relying on one or more of the following:

  • a finding of adequacy, where the UK Government has decided that the country concerned provides an adequate level of protection;
  • the UK International Data Transfer Agreement, or the UK Addendum to the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses, entered into with the provider; or
  • for providers in the United States that are certified under it, the UK Extension to the EU-US Data Privacy Framework.

Where we rely on contractual safeguards, we also assess whether the law of the destination country would undermine them, and apply additional measures such as encryption in transit and at rest, and minimising what is sent, where needed. You may request a copy of the safeguards we rely on for a particular transfer by contacting us using the details in section 16.

7.1 How long we keep your data

We keep personal data only for as long as we need it. Where the law fixes a period, we state it. Where it does not, we set out the criteria we use to decide, because the honest answer depends on your relationship with us rather than on a fixed number of days. We may keep something longer where we have to in order to comply with a legal obligation, or to establish, exercise or defend a legal claim.

CategoryHow long, or how we decideWhy
Customer contact, identity, financial and transaction records7 years after you cease to be a customerTax and accounting obligations
The written summary of a call, saved to your record in our customer relationship management systemAs long as we retain the customer record it belongs toIt forms part of the history of our relationship with you, in the same way as any other note on your record
Call and meeting recordings, the transcripts made from them, and the quality assessments we produce from callsAs long as we retain the customer record they relate toService quality review, staff coaching, and the history of our relationship with you
Working copies of your record held in our internal reporting systemsRefreshed and replaced on a rolling basis, and never kept longer than the record they are copied fromThese are working copies, not the record itself. Deleting one does not delete anything you would notice
Enquiry and marketing contact records where you do not become a customerReviewed periodically and deleted when no longer relevantData minimisation
Cookie consent audit logSee section 13aEvidence of lawful processing under PECR and the UK GDPR
Records of a request to be suppressed or not contactedKept indefinitelySo that we can continue to honour your request

Some information is deliberately kept even where a related record is deleted. If you ask us to erase your contact record, we will still retain records of any purchase you made and any payment you sent us, because those carry their own legal retention obligations.

Data security is very important to Us, and to protect your data We have taken suitable measures to safeguard and secure data collected through Our Site.

8. Do We Share Your Data?

We may sometimes contract with third parties to supply products and services to you on Our behalf. These may include payment processing, delivery of goods, search engine facilities, advertising, and marketing. In some cases, the third parties may require access to some or all of your data. Where any of your data is required for such a purpose, We will take all reasonable steps to ensure that your data will be handled safely, securely, and in accordance with your rights, Our obligations, and the obligations of the third party under the law.

We may compile statistics about the use of Our Site including data on traffic, usage patterns, user numbers, sales, and other information. All such data will be anonymised and will not include any personally identifying data, or any anonymised data that can be combined with other data and used to identify you. We may from time to time share such data with third parties such as prospective investors, affiliates, partners, and advertisers. Data will only be shared and used within the bounds of the law.

In certain circumstances, We may be legally required to share certain data held by Us, which may include your personal data, for example, where We are involved in legal proceedings, where We are complying with legal requirements, a court order, or a governmental authority.

8a. Who We Share Your Data With

The categories of recipient below process personal data on our behalf, as our processors, under written contracts meeting the requirements of Article 28 of the UK GDPR. They act only on our instructions and may not use your data for their own purposes.

We also share data with our professional advisers, such as our accountants and lawyers, where it is necessary and they are bound by a duty of confidentiality.

This list reflects the providers in use at the date of this Policy.

8a.1 Providers We May Add

Technology changes more often than this Policy is revised. We may therefore engage other software, technology and AI providers to run the business and to do what we already do more efficiently. This is not permission to share your data with anyone we choose. We will only engage an additional provider where all of the following are true:

  • it processes your data only for the purposes already described in this Policy, and not for any materially different purpose;
  • it acts as our processor on our documented instructions, under a written contract meeting the requirements of Article 28 of the UK GDPR;
  • it is not permitted to use your data for its own purposes, to sell or share it, or to train its AI models on it;
  • where it is outside the United Kingdom, the transfer safeguards in section 7 apply; and
  • we have satisfied ourselves that it offers sufficient guarantees of appropriate technical and organisational security measures.

If we want to use your data for a purpose that is not already described in this Policy, that is a material change, and we will update this Policy and tell you before it takes effect, as set out in section 17. Adding a provider does not shorten that obligation.

You can ask us for the current list of providers at any time, and we will send it to you. Contact us using the details in section 16.

9. What Happens If Our Business Changes Hands?

We may, from time to time, expand or reduce Our business and this may involve the sale and/or the transfer of control of all or part of Our business. Any personal data that you have provided will, where it is relevant to any part of Our business that is being transferred, be transferred along with that part and the new owner or newly controlling party will, under the terms of this Privacy Policy, be permitted to use that data only for the same purposes for which it was originally collected by Us.

In the event that any of your data is to be transferred in such a manner, you will be contacted in advance and informed of the changes.

10. How Can You Control Your Data?

When you submit personal data via Our Site, you may be given options to restrict Our use of your data. In particular, We aim to give you strong controls on Our use of your data for direct marketing purposes (including the ability to opt-out of receiving emails from Us which you may do by unsubscribing using the links provided in Our emails and at the point of providing your details).

You may also wish to sign up to one or more of the preference services operating in the UK: The Telephone Preference Service ("the TPS"), the Corporate Telephone Preference Service ("the CTPS"), and the Mailing Preference Service ("the MPS"). These may help to prevent you receiving unsolicited marketing. Please note, however, that these services will not prevent you from receiving marketing communications that you have consented to receiving.

11. Your Right to Withhold Information

You may access certain areas of Our Site without providing any data at all. However, to use all features and functions available on Our Site you may be required to submit or allow for the collection of certain data.

You may restrict Our use of Cookies. For more information, see section 13.

12. How Can You Access Your Data?

You have the right to ask for a copy of any of your personal data held by Us (where such data is held). Under the GDPR, no fee is payable and We will provide any and all information in response to your request free of charge. Please contact Us for more details at info@thegoodpropertycompany.co.uk.

13. Our Use of Cookies

Our Site may place and access certain first party Cookies on your computer or device. First party Cookies are those placed directly by Us and are used only by Us. We use Cookies to facilitate and improve your experience of Our Site and to provide and improve Our products and services. We have carefully chosen these Cookies and have taken steps to ensure that your privacy and personal data is protected and respected at all times.

By using Our Site you may also receive certain third party Cookies on your computer or device. Third party Cookies are those placed by websites, services, and/or parties other than Us. Third party Cookies are used on Our Site for Google Analytics and Facebook Pixel(s). These Cookies are not integral to the functioning of Our Site and your use and experience of Our Site will not be impaired by refusing consent to them.

All Cookies used by and on Our Site are used in accordance with current Cookie Law.

On www.thegoodpropertycompany.co.uk, before Cookies are placed on your computer or device, you will be shown a prompt requesting your consent to set those Cookies. By giving your consent to the placing of Cookies you are enabling Us to provide the best possible experience and service to you. You may, if you wish, deny consent to the placing of Cookies; however certain features of Our Site may not function fully or as intended.

Cookies on our shop work differently, and We want to be clear about it. Our shop at shop.thegoodpropertycompany.co.uk runs on the GoHighLevel platform. That platform sets one Cookie, named msgsndr_id, as soon as a page opens. GoHighLevel have told Us it is used to identify sessions and to support platform features including analytics. It is set before you are asked, because there is no consent prompt on the shop.

This is not a choice We have made. GoHighLevel provide a consent banner for some of their products but not for their shop, and they have confirmed that We cannot add our own to it. We have raised this with them and are asking them to provide one. We are telling you here because We would rather disclose it plainly than leave it unsaid.

We cannot currently offer you a way to refuse this Cookie on the shop. It is set before any prompt could appear, and the platform does not give Us a control we can pass on to you. We have asked GoHighLevel to provide one. Your browser can clear or block Cookies, and you are free to use it, but We do not offer that as a substitute for asking you properly, because it assumes you know how and that your browser can do it.

If you would prefer not to receive this Cookie, please contact Us using the details in section 16. We will tell you what We can do and, if you ask, We will pass your objection to GoHighLevel with the request We have already made.

Our Site uses analytics services provided by Google Analytics. Website analytics refers to a set of tools used to collect and analyse anonymous usage information, enabling Us to better understand how Our Site is used. This, in turn, enables Us to improve Our Site and the products and services offered through it. You do not have to allow Us to use these Cookies, however whilst Our use of them does not pose any risk to your privacy or your safe use of Our Site, it does enable Us to continually improve Our Site, making it a better and more useful experience for you.

In addition to the controls that We provide, you can choose to enable or disable Cookies in your internet browser. Most internet browsers also enable you to choose whether you wish to disable all cookies or only third party Cookies. By default, most internet browsers accept Cookies but this can be changed. For further details, please consult the help menu in your internet browser or the documentation that came with your device.

You can choose to delete Cookies on your computer or device at any time, however you may lose any information that enables you to access Our Site more quickly and efficiently including, but not limited to, login and personalisation settings.

It is recommended that you keep your internet browser and operating system up-to-date and that you consult the help and guidance provided by the developer of your internet browser and manufacturer of your computer or device if you are unsure about adjusting your privacy settings.

13a. Cookie Consent Audit Log

When you make a choice in our cookie consent banner — whether you Accept or Reject — we record that decision on our server as a compliance audit trail. This record is kept under our legitimate interest to maintain evidence of lawful processing (UK GDPR Article 6(1)(f) and PECR).

This applies to www.thegoodpropertycompany.co.uk only. There is no consent banner on our shop, as explained in section 13, so there is no decision to record and no audit log entry is created there.

Each audit log entry contains only the following information:

  • Your decision (granted or denied)
  • The policy version you were shown
  • The exact time of your decision (ISO-8601 timestamp)
  • A random session identifier generated in your browser when you visited (not tied to any account)
  • Your browser's user-agent string
  • A one-way SHA-256 hash of your IP address combined with a server-side secret. The raw IP address is never stored; the hash cannot be reversed to identify you
  • The page URL you were on when you made the decision

What we do NOT store: your name, your email, your raw IP address, any browsing history, or any link back to a named account.

Retention: these audit log entries are automatically deleted after 24 months. After that we can no longer produce your original decision.

Your rights: you can request a copy of your audit log entry, or ask us to delete it, by emailing info@thegoodpropertycompany.co.uk. We will use the hash of your current IP address and your user-agent string to locate your record.

What happens if you reject cookies: we do not load Meta (Facebook) Pixel, Google Analytics 4, or any other marketing or analytics scripts. Form submissions you make will still be recorded (because you initiated them), but they will be tagged as "analytics rejected" and excluded from retargeting audiences and attribution reports. You will still receive any transactional emails related to products or services you have purchased.

Specifically, on reject we block:

  • Google Analytics 4 (googletagmanager.com/gtag/js, google-analytics.com/g/collect)
  • Meta (Facebook) Pixel (connect.facebook.net, *.facebook.com/tr)
  • All retargeting audience pixels and conversion tracking

Our consent gating uses Google Consent Mode v2: every consent category (ad_storage, analytics_storage, ad_user_data, ad_personalization, personalization_storage) stays set to "denied" until you accept. The Google Tag Manager container itself may still load — it's the gate that enforces the denial — but the analytics and marketing scripts inside it do not fire.

How to withdraw consent later: open the "Cookie Preferences" link in the footer of any page. Your decision is cleared and the banner re-appears so you can choose again. (The withdrawal itself is not logged — only your next Accept or Reject decision creates a new audit log entry.)

14. Pixels

We use technologies, such as cookies, to customise content and advertising, to provide social media features and to analyse traffic to the site. We also share information about your use of our site with Facebook.

16. Contacting Us

If you have any questions about Our Site or this Privacy Policy, please contact Us by email at info@thegoodpropertycompany.co.uk, or by post at 184 Henleaze Rd, Henleaze, Bristol BS9 4NE, United Kingdom.

Please ensure that your query is clear, particularly if it is a request for information about the data We hold about you. We try to respond to all legitimate requests within one month. Occasionally it may take Us longer than a month if your request is particularly complex or you have made a number of requests. In this case, We will notify you and keep you updated.

17. Changes to Our Privacy Policy

We may change this Privacy Policy from time to time (for example, if the law changes, or if we adopt a new technology or service provider). Any changes will be immediately posted on Our Site and you will be deemed to have accepted the terms of the Privacy Policy on your first use of Our Site following the alterations. We recommend that you check this page regularly to keep up-to-date.

Where a change is material, such as using your data for a genuinely new purpose or introducing a new category of processing, we will not rely on posting alone. We will tell you directly, by email where we hold an address for you, before the change takes effect, so that you have a real opportunity to object or to withdraw consent. The summary at the top of this page records what changed in the current version.
